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
