"And where are you headed, puny one?" 'I'm going to make my way towards the Sun.' "What, then, if thou weres't to burn?" 'I'd stand tall; not so much as turn.' "With this arrogance, you shall not survive. Be like the others and venture not to strive." The impressionable little tomato did blush, red-hued. Seeds of ambition crushed even before they were strew'd. "And who may you be..." the voice moves on. A familiar epilogue- society had won.
