I have always been fasinated by the whole “is there life out there” thing. I once read an article on someone taking a photo and although there had been no one there at the time, the camera caught someone who was resonably human. I wondered if there ever was visitors from another planet.. could they be similiar in looks? could we even see them? could they be living in another dimension?etc…
Also I am thinking about doing a poem on the Rama series too soon so keep an eye out if you like this

He comes without sound
just a whisper upon a breathless night
not so much as a chime
does he enter our world with
at least not one heard by the human ear
an unjustified arrival
not a single bead of sweat
graces his tranquil brow
to mark his long lost travels
a click in and out in the blink of an eye
no need for inconvenient travel
he comes from beyond the stars
he blends into the crowds
more than just an apparition
amongst the flesh, is he
such human resemblance
his eyes well up with a substance
we might know all too well
the beauty and delight is overwhelming
such a flourish of life here
hit with such compelling reverie
of how his planet used to be
the oceans once just a spec in time
now open to his eyes
such luscious fields of grass
now tickling his naked feet
he can soon return home
how they will rejoice
with word of such a hospitable planet
he can see the end in sight

the end to the long centuries they have suffered
in the broken lands of chaos
his civilisation to be reborn
to yet another world
there can be no hostile takeover
we will coexist without the knowledge
breathe as one on this complex planet
seen through two sets of distant eyes
to watch the sun disappear into the ocean
embrace each blinding night together
emotions swimming in solidarity
our kind do not see him
and his eyes are trained
to never to detect us
