Kasim: There are actually aliens on this planet.
Will: Yes, after a certain point people become aliens to even themselves.
Wan-Sze: So space travel really is possible?

Alien Skin


My heart is alien
and not human anymore
the warm flesh encasing me
appears organic
but I'm animal at the core

Millions of pseudo-humans
are morphing into monsters
spurning humanity

The connection was bound to sever
after watching so many murdered
on video screens

Though most bipeds
call themselves 'human'
that's seldom the case

even so-called "civilized" creatures
become savage
when ordinary things
become unstable
in unforeseen ways
