In the beginning there was barren, harsh land.
Terrible storms raged. Shaping it, sculpting it, filling its oceans and flooding its plains. Lightning in the sky stirred the atoms in the seas, willing them into chains of ever-increasing complexity until finally, life began. It multiplied and spread, filling the oceans, growing stronger, quicker, bigger. The oceans teemed with life. And life adapted. Creatures crawled out of the murky depths and onto the land, basking in the sunlight, ever evolving, swifter, larger, more powerful. Huge lizards lived and died, small furry mammals scurried on the ground, insects buzzed everywhere. The mammals grew. Intelligence flickered in the large monkeys. They walked, hunted, hid, built. They tamed the land, the sea, the sky. They became its masters. They built machines that did their work for them. Huge lumbering yellow land movers, probes that escaped their world's atmosphere, counting machines that knew everything but didn't understand anything. They marvelled at their greatness. And then they turned around and looked at the land. It was scarred, dirty, spoilt, nuked, polluted and smelly. Some asked why. Some tried in vain to fix it. Others went on with their lives and moaned about how bad things were. The smart ones said "Fuck it, let's find another goddamn planet!". Welcome to my home page. The culmination of 4 billion years of evolution. |
