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?
Nadia:
Well, how much space is between your ears?
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
Hear the author read this poem.
