THIS IS NOT AN EXIT

I wrote this earlier about the postmodern age. Baudrillard would approve, I think. I haven't figured out what it is yet, or where it belongs, but I'll use it some day in some thing.

Our knowledge in this age is not greater, but simply more precise. It is a maze upon which some early player has already drawn a line to the finish. That is the universe, and our knowledge of it is correct, but we lack the perspective gleaned from exploring horrible and ominous corners and bleak, unavoidable dead ends lacking signs to blink brightly in the night, "THIS IS NOT AN EXIT".
