Man’s UnCreation

Acceptance of Death
I
n the beginning was the earth.

And it was beautiful.
And man lived upon the earth.
And man said: “Let’s build skyscrapers and express ways.”
And man said:  “It is good.”

On the second day, man looked upon the clear blue waters on the earth.
And man said: "Let’s dump our sewage and waste into the waters."
And man did.
The waters became dark and murky.
And man said:  “It is good.”

On the third day, man gazed at the forest of the earth and they were tall and green.
And man said:  “Let’s cut the trees and build things for ourselves."
And man did.
And the forest grew thin.
And man said:  “It is good.”

On the fourth day, man saw animals leaping in the fields and praying in the sun.
And man said:  “Let’s trap the animals for money and shoot them for sports.”
And man did.
And the animals became scarce.
And man said: “It is good.”

On the fifth day, man felt the cool breeze in his nostrils.
And man said:
“Let’s burn leaves and fuels, let the wind blow away the smoke and debris.”
And man did.
And the air became dense with smoke and carbon.
And man said while smoking: “It is good.”

On the sixth day, man saw many kind of people on earth---
And man feared and said:
“It’s overpopulation! Let’s convince people to stop having children.”
“Let’s make guns, bombs and missiles in case misunderstanding arise.”
And man did.
And guns killed many, missiles and bombs checkered the landscape.
And man said: “ It is good.”

On the seventh day,  man rested.
And the earth was quite and deathly still.
For man was no more.
And it was good…
