| Posted by Graeme Fielden on 03/13/03 at 12:23 PM a fantastically original piece of work...something that would not be out of place at a museum of modern art... |
| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 03/18/03 at 05:20 PM Brilliantly conveyed, but also scary in its own way. Brings back memories of Hal in 2001: A Space Odyssey, The Matrix, and the Terminator movies. |
| Posted by Michele Schottelkorb on 03/21/03 at 07:21 AM this is so intriguing and frightening at the same time... i love your ingenuity, however, the meaning behind your "computers" thoughts disturb me ::smile::... excellent.... blessings... |
| Posted by Phil P Robson on 03/21/03 at 11:28 PM Loved this, reminded me of Space Oddity:2001, Blade Runner and some bad dreams. |
| Posted by JD Clay on 03/22/03 at 09:32 PM Veritable poetry, Dante. A digital masterpiece and a message for the ages. Thanks for the analogue interpretation my binary esoteric friend.
Peace... |
| Posted by Kalikala Smith on 03/30/03 at 10:07 PM incredibly spooky... and could give me nightmares if i really let it... i love your use of binary |
| Posted by Rhodora M Fitzgerald on 04/02/03 at 11:09 AM One word....... Freaky! It took me a couple reads to really "get" this..... but then I'm a little slow...lol
Still think it's freaky, but very creative! |
| Posted by Beth K Hannah on 04/13/03 at 06:15 AM fascinating. I have a torrid love with my computer. it is sometimes why I get up in the morning. Thank you. |
| Posted by Alex Smyth on 05/25/03 at 10:40 PM What everyone else said, only times two! And yes, being a 70's throwback, I immediately thought of Hal. I bet Kubrick would have loved this. |
| Posted by Jeanne Marie Hoffman on 10/16/03 at 11:22 PM I've seen this before and can't believe I haven't commented -- incredible creative! |
| Posted by Max Bouillet on 10/31/03 at 04:26 AM Pre-Apocalyptic? On the verge rather, great verse that gives glimpses of what may be... :0 |
| Posted by Thomas K. Hunt on 11/15/03 at 12:08 AM very interesting and different piece here....Very well thought out..excellent |
| Posted by Rhyana Fisher on 12/18/03 at 09:21 AM months later and reading this still creeps me out. bravo. |
| Posted by Lindsay Sanders on 06/18/04 at 04:03 PM haha @ andi. and congrats on POTD. this is amazing & creepy. it is funny how much of our world revolves around controlling computers & it is a scary thought that they could one day control us. ::shivers:: |
| Posted by Paganini Jones on 06/18/04 at 08:27 PM This is SO creative that it goes immediately into my short list of favourites. Superb! Whoever suggested POTD, thank you. And thank you for writing this.
Now, do I go and try to read the binary? |
| Posted by Paganini Jones on 06/18/04 at 08:30 PM Sorry - do I mean octal? |
| Posted by Anne Engelen on 06/18/04 at 10:27 PM A super POTD!!! Congrats! |
| Posted by Brett Shane on 09/09/04 at 09:39 PM brilliant and creative!!! i'm awestruck... |
| Posted by Delilah Coyne on 04/09/05 at 06:22 PM ...scares the hell out of me. Awesome. |

| Posted by Kourosh Taheri-Golvarzi on 05/18/05 at 02:28 AM This is hauntingly beautiful! "The day you should fear is the day that I do." That sentence is nothing short of pure genius! |
| Posted by Frankie Sanchez on 07/15/05 at 04:39 AM simply brilliant... |
| Posted by Ava Blu on 07/22/05 at 03:54 AM you are one of the few poetic geniuses. |
| Posted by Jersey D Gibson on 11/29/05 at 09:29 AM I wish I'd read this before I wrote my War Against The Machines series... way brilliant. I'm thinking more of Ghost In The Machine than 2001, but the message is more diabolical that it seems. If genetics or nuclear warfare doesn't kill us first, you will be the next Notradamus *scary*
yer pal

| Posted by Julie Adams on 07/14/08 at 04:58 PM I love what you are doing here :D peace, jewels |
| Posted by V. Blake on 11/28/09 at 05:59 AM It's poems like these that make me wanna stop writing, in knowing that I will never be remotely this brilliant. I'll continue to write to make people like you look better, and if I ever even come within a thousand miles of the creativity of this poem, I'll be ecstatic. :) |
| Posted by Kimberly Bauer on 05/17/11 at 07:31 PM I can almost hear a creepy robotic voice as I read this. Original masterpiece. I love it! |
| Posted by Bertram Sparagmos on 10/22/12 at 03:45 PM Which binary translator did you feed this through? |
