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...
