unzip me. see it's true. i'm ugly on the inside too.

take a long look around if you must. it's all genuine. ugly is as ugly does.

now you've had your fun. don't hesitate. keep it inside. zip me up.

clean yourself off. wash all that ugly away.

this entry also appears in my blog deep thoughts for the day. but i thought it was stupid enough to justify duplicaation.

turning planets. up in orbit. serenading the sun with their little dances. i think the earth sometimes, it spins too fast. and i get dizzy. lose my balance.

so vast. most of the world eons beyond our primitive grasps. we build our giant metalloid machines. clumsy disciples of the heavens we hope to reach.

from far above i wonder do they ever see us. some alien reality show. the earthlings' guide to the universe. bulky ships that can't get passed their own moon's orbit. interplanetary skirmishes that segregate as they promise unity.

i wonder could we be. being watched. some hysterical reality show on aliens' tv's. them snickering as they watch our primtive mating rituals. just as we do when we watch the monkeys on the discovery channel.
