An Eye Is Upon You...

"Spinning complacently in the darkness, covered and blinded by a blanket of little lives,
False security has lulled the madness of this world into a slumber...

WAKE UP!!
An eye is upon you, staring straight down and keenly through,
Seeing all that you are and everything that you can never be.
Yes, an eye is upon you, an eye ready to blink.
So face forward, with arms wide open and mind reeling,
Your future has arrived...
Are you READY to go?"

- From J.P. Saticoy's "An Eye is Upon You" (1947)      

          Growing up, I wasn't really exposed to science fiction that much. H.G. Wells, Douglas Adams, J.P. Saticoy, Aldous Huxley, Orson Scott Card, and even George Orwell. I feel like I missed out on an era - "They Came From Space!!!", "Tonight the Stars REVOLT!" and other phrases like these are iconic, but seem forgotten. I'd like to get my hands on these sci-fi dime novels and be shocked, terrified, and mystified by the genius minds of these stories and marvel at the possibility that we may not be alone after all...
