Posted by Kyle Anne Kish on 08/28/06 at 03:17 PM And who are we ... really? Your words make for a powerful, bone-chilling and quality read ... letting very little slip through the imagination. Back to basics, be who we are, let life in, fill the void, forget or remember freud? Great read, Chris. :) |

Posted by Glenn Currier on 08/29/06 at 01:14 PM Extra Terrestrial soul indeed. We best start finding it or we WILL end up in the soup... or maybe the point is to realize we are already there but for our miopia, can't see it. Sometimes I get so tied up in being a pea I can't see the soup. Wonderful piece, Chris. Beautiful image. |

Posted by David R Spellman on 09/05/06 at 12:39 AM Very poignant and how so true! Reminds of my own SETI poem in some regards. Why do we bother when we can't even get along with ourselves!? |
