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
