Science Fiction Syntax .
It is hard to write
otherworldly when
imaginative Earthers
are in play. Monsters
and bad guys and evil
ladies lose out to
death as a collateral.
.
It is strange when
life lived is extraordinary
and writing is mundane.
Rising to challenge
human invention is work.
Do try it. A fantastic
poem or short story
may happen.

That's no small challenge,
That's no small challenge, considering how reality continues to outdo our imaginations. An insightful and thought-provoking commentary on these extraordinary times..
Your sci-fi is being undermined
..by a real world technocratic dystopia. Can 1984 compete with 2021? A struggle, but I think it still can. Will 1984 be able to compete with 2031, though? Or even 2025? I'm not sure. Orwell tried, though. I tip my cap to all of you writers who tried to make it real before it became all too real.
Maybe, now, what we need is an imagined revolution of cosmic proportions ; )
Your call is engaging: we must all, what ever and how ever we write, rise to meet any challenge that threatens to make our pen ink disappear into the page - sage words from the wise.
