Breaking waves crashed upon my feet toes poking into the dampened sand on my face I felt the sun and considered its warmth and power got lost in quiet reflection and found myself searching deep within my own soul for some answers to the great universal questions but I did not know why we are on earth or by what mode our story began I was just as the sand, but a tiny speck of dust one in the cornucopia of humanity
the wind blew a swirl of sand large enough to partially blot out the sun wind gusts with such force and power I could no longer see my reflection but stood still for fear of the ocean so deep when I heard the slightest whisper of an answer as if the wind sought to respond to my questions surrounding life on earth and how it all began from just asteroid dust to the gross expansion of humanity I looked down at my bare feet
I felt on my back and neck the heat of the sun Worried I was being burned by its power from both sides with the sea’s reflection I stepped into the deep and in the darkness I found some answers to my most pressing question about the source of water on earth and if colliding comets are where it began mingling with asteroid dust to create a hospitable environment for humanity from fins to feet and back to dust and sand
the frigid water squished me with such power there was no more time for peaceful reflection as I sank further into the deep no longer looking for answers I had but one question was this to be the end of my time on earth when it feels like it as only just began am I to just become more dust catching in the dry and voiceless throats of humanity I sank fathoms and feet until I lightly touched down on the sand but I could see no sun
I tried to locate my reflection but my own face was lost in the deep I cried out for an answer but my mind only reeled with more questions mainly relating to if I was still on the earth had I been taken back to when time began before water and dust long before the taint of humanity I felt as though my feet were caught in a quagmire of mud and sand unable to ever be dried by the sun never touched by ultra-violet power
distorted and skewed as the water was so deep but holding answers to my questions it came up from the very earth and I began to strip away the flotsam and dust and stand up for all of humanity in an instant is was just at a few feet stopped suddenly in the sand and shown me the grace of the sun in all its glory and power I saw my own reflection
I, at once, knew the answer I no longer needed the questions we were part of the earth that was how we began from magnetized and electrified dust we mounted a charge to become humanity growing legs and standing upon feet walking away from the shore and sand to stand in a meadow grown by the sun feel the mountain power and experience the quiet stream reflection that can take a Being so deep
free from the bane of answering questions I felt free to fall into the earth become as it had began dissolve back to dust and let go the trapping of humanity trade in my five-toed feet and melt into the dunes of sand warmed by the setting sun granted power through reflection there was nothing so deep as to have all the answers
I sat upon the red clay earth thinking about how it all began scratching around for a handful of dust that represented humanity I tossed it into the air and it flew a few feet and landed amongst the sand sat baking in the sun void of power lacking the ability for reflection falling off the cliff into the deep seeking answers finding only more questions
was this how it all began truly, no alien force or god hand, just dust morphing into what we know as humanity clapping hands and stomping feet on the chemically altered sand drawing energy from the sun to give our homes power no longer seeking inner reflection to anything running very deep instead seeking only safe answers by asking mundane questions never considering one’s place on the earth
my teeth clamped tight and crunched some dust wishing it were the bones of humanity starting with toes and feet eating mankind like the ocean does the sand like comets to the sun like power does to those impoverished and lost in reflection leaving bodies buried deep offering no answers to any child’s question to the state of the earth to how this all began
it started with the civilization of humanity when we planted out feet firmly into the sand grew crops in the springtime sun and felt the corruption of power lost sight of our reflection somewhere so deep that the true answers only come across as more questions as we slowly destroy the earth same way it all began by turning the land into dust
I saw my feet sink into the sand and get burned by the sun Its power caused a reflection and my soul sunk deep Looking for answers to questions about the state of the earth Then it began to all turn to dust and I watched the end of humanity
