THE SICK SHIT ABOUT           
                                          
                             
                OUR WORLD               
                             
                                          
 IS THAT IT'S PRETTY YOUNG  AS WORLDS GO, 
 THERE MUST  HAVE  BEEN COUNTLESS  WORLDS 
 HERE  BEFORE OURS,  ON THIS  EARTH,  AND 
             WHAT ABOUT THIS:             
                                          
 IF I  AM  A  CAT, TWENTY  YEARS OF  AGE, 
 I'VE LIVED ALMOST  TWO  PERCENT  OF  THE 
            TIME SINCE ZERO BCE           
                                          
 THINGS ARE  RECENT. HUMANITY IS  RECENT. 
 IT WAS NOT, GEOLOGICALLY  SPEAKING, SUCH 
 A  VERY  LONG  TIME SINCE  THEY INVENTED 
                THE WHEEL                 
                   AND                    
 I LIKE  THE  WHEEL  JUST  AS MUCH AS THE 
 NEXT PERSON BUT  WHAT ABOUT  THE  EARTH? 
 THE  ORIGINAL  MARBLE.   THE  LOOSE  ORB
