CHALLENGE - Something Sinister

"Min-Min lights - the eerie luminous spheres that startle stockmen and cheekily tailgate cars on outback roads - have been intriguing Australian scientists for decades. Experts regularly attempt to explain what Min-Mins might be. But so far no-one has produced a sustainable theory. Most perplexing of all are the statements by numerous witnesses that these baffling balls of light have behaved in a seemingly intelligent and purposeful way."

~ An interpretation of Min-Min lights for today's Thursday challenge. ~
