Nothing new under the sun
"It isn't enough for a sole voice of reason to exist. In this time of uncertainty, we are so sure that villains lurk around every corner that we will create them ourselves if we can't find them — for while fear may keep us vigilant, it's also fear that tears us apart — a fear that sadly exists only too often — outside the Twilight Zone." This is the closing narrative from an episode of The Twilight Zone that first aired March 4, 1960: The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street. Poetry or prose

It’s all been Done

Locked and filed.

But above the Sun

there hovers potential

on the dark periphery

not yet vulnerable

to critique

of mind... time

or its gadgetry

weightless like all things

in outer space afloat

and formless in the void,

that composite blackness

from which all inklings

emerge, uncuffed

light lined and

twinkling

as fathomable

...Released

like prisoners

on parole
