words
I am looking at the stars. They are so far away, and their light takes so long to reach us. All we ever see of stars is their old photographs.

In my opinion, the existence of life is a highly overrated phenomenon. Just look around you. Mars gets along perfectly well without so much as a micro-organism. Here it's a constantly changing topographical map, flowing and shifting around the globe in ripples ten thousand years wide. So tell me how would all of this be greatly improved by an oil pipeline? By a shopping mall?

I prefer the stillness here. I am tired of Earth. These people. I am tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives. They claim their labors are to build a heaven, yet their heaven is populated with horrors. Perhaps the world is not made, perhaps nothing is made; a clock, without a craftsmen. It’s too late, always has been, always will be, too late.

:) Thanks.

The best parts of The Waters of Mars are at the end. It's solid, but the ending is most memorable.
