Read The Eyes Have It</p><p>Philip K. Dick was born on this day in 1928. His story The Eyes Have It originally appeared in Science Fiction Stories 1953, but since the copyright wasnt renewed, its lapsed into the public domain.

As yet, I havent done anything about it; I cant think of anything to do. I wrote to the Government, and they sent back a pamphlet on the repair and maintenance of frame houses.

A species, I hasten to point out, customarily masquerading as ordinary human beings. Their disguise, however, became transparent in the face of the following observations by the author.

The line (and I tremble remembering it even now) read:<br /> his eyes slowly roved about the room.<br />Vague chills assailed me. I tried to picture the eyes. Did they roll like dimes? The passage indicated not; they seemed to move through the air, not over the surface. Rather rapidly, apparently. No one in the story was surprised. Thats what tipped me off. No sign of amazement at such an outrageous thing. Later the matter was amplified.<br /> his eyes moved from person to person.<br />There it was in a nutshell. The eyes had clearly come apart from the rest of him and were on their own. My heart pounded and my breath choked in my windpipe. I had stumbled on an accidental mention of a totally unfamiliar race.
