humans are silly, silly creatures - we need this, that, the other - oxygen and purpose and other such silly, silly features. we love being exactly where we're not supposed to - making home in ice, in fire, in the depths of the earth, even ******* space, and everything else that we're fundamentally opposed to. call us stubborn or rebellious, or just plain crazy - humans love to declare their residence in places where Nature might have been especially lazy. all we do is throw flowers on a table, set in the middle of nowhere and call it home, and then we concoct a new fable - so other homes may feel less alone.
