a            
      fermi's paradox       
                          
                                          
 there's  too little apparent life in the 
         universe         
         omega point        
         it'-a       
                                          
                  ther                  
   there's probably a point   
 (they  tell me  so; the  ones i talk to, 
 the   ones  untouched   by   our  mortal 
                emptiness)                
                                          
 there's probably  a  point  where we try 
 too much.  the fey are curious like  us, 
 or mor  a "killer  fact", something 
 that a species that  isn't curious  will 
                never find                
                                          
 but something  that  a  species  that is 
 curious  is bound (in the fey  sense) to 
                  explore                 
                                          
 the keyword here is safety margin  - 
 it  will  look like  any other force, it 
 will  fit in the puzzle, safe  to bend - 
 but it  wont  be,  and  the  second they 
                  try...                  
                                          
             and sot            
 hey look at us and our  planet  and they 
                  lauh                 
 ause we're next...
