A Martian Sends a Postcard


Dear Glor-glor,

Greetings! Earth is confusing. The subject of my studies, Earthlings, are a series of ovals walking through waves of light. That is all I have discovered so far. More later.

Your co-worker,
Flor-flor

Deawr Glor-glor,

I have learned more.

Humans have antennae, but invisible ones. They always ask, "are we friends? are we equals?" with their antennae.

Singing is something they do constantly. They have two modes (at least) of singing. In mode one, their hypnotism sensor is turned off. In mode two, they hypnotize their listeners.

More later,
Flor-flor

Dear Glor-glor,

Earthlings' favorite thing to do is look at each other. Sometimes they look into a machine that shows them a picture of another earthling who is the same as they are, and even moves the way they do.

They make marks on very, very thin pieces of wood.

Humans' brains are inside but also outside of their bodies.

I am still confused. I think I have to return to Mars and take a break. See you soon.

Flor-flor
