That's right, Mneme! Not that I know much about the subject - but then,
as it's fantasy, what is there to know?

That's amazing, Mary, you've seen the underlying psychology of the poem!
I'm impressed...

Well hello MC - or 'hullo' as it always used to say in comics. I wonder if
it still does? Great to see you back to your old ways. I might be around on Saturday if you are - if not, then Sunday!

I think you're living with a pea deficiency. You've travelled out of this world to find them, I can certainly sympathize.

Hi Tony----I can't really say I 'understand it'-but it all has a nice
swing to it and makes me use my imagination! That can't be bad.Chris.

What a cool little piece of minutia poetry....
I'll drink to that,
I hear neutrinos
are not terribly calorific...
sort of nothing really,
I think what you wrote
was terrific
sort of soporific
Highway to heavenly traffic
neurone action station
Or... did I get the wrong end
the computer generated stick?
A refreshing muse
for the overworked
or should I say
from an overworked brain....
I kind of get your drift
and I am enjoying the trip
to somewhere promising
like split hair and atomic power
of overheated imagination>>>
Now look what you made me write!!!!
Beatific my friend,

Hi Drohan!
Can i say it's not an allegory, not symbolic. It did start out as an attempt to disrupt our usual notions of time and space, and then just kind of turned into a typical futuristic adventure story, then became an ironic satire on artificial intelligence! To be honest, there simply weren't enough to get all the ideas across, but as a result, what is there is certainly enigmatic. Enigmatic, where are you?!!

OK - I won't ask you to explain it but as I was reading it I felt like I was sharing your daydream if that counts for anything.
