He reminds us about our >fragile planet. dear hlen, i find 'our fragile planet' to be an enviromantic notion. by 'our', do you mean humanity? by 'fragile planet', do you believe this planet can not cope with what is being done to it by its inhabitants? nature is enduring, we are not. and by 'our fragile planet' aren't you trying to lock us into a landscape(the universe, even if it is referred to as space), a place, in all of this infinity, where we 'belong'? i believe we are not one humanity bound by our common love for our fragile planet. just as i believe we are not one australian poet, bound by our common love of one australian landcsape. cheers komninos komninos's cyberpoetry site http://student.uq.edu.au/~s271502 cyberpoet@slv site http://www.experimedia.vic.gov.au/cyberpoet/ komninos zervos, tel. +61 7 5552 8872 lecturer in cyberStudies, school of arts, gold coast campus, griffith university, pmb 50, gold coast mail centre queensland, 9726 australia.
