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...
