Dot Dot Dot Daughter

Yes Fear not my daughter I am that blind lightning And the deaf thunder You can't hear and see Rising over the distant event horizon Signing out to you in morse flags and metaphor Dot , Dot , Dot SoS Love I hate to see you frown

Like this Christopher your message is clear, that damn event horizon is hiding something that cannot be bargained with, it simply is the be all and end all to our understanding of the cosmos and reality, but it’s possibilities are endless, and offer hope, in my head anyway, cheers David

What sort of a creature does it make me, finding hope where the very fabric of science and understanding becomes unexplainable, maybe I’m just hanging on to the unknown, to offer us something other than death. It’s certainly not optimism.

In your head lies hope then David And long may it real tangible possibility
