A Presentation
(Ahem)
Lots of water
à la Noah.
Lightning – poof! – then
Protozoa.
Time elapses
For an instant.
Look! A fish is
Now existent.
Lungs and kneecaps,
Stegosaurus.
Add a comet,
Get a tortoise.
Something, something,
Then impalas.
Birds and stuff and
Cute koalas.
Enter monkeys,
Thumbed and clever.
Next a link who
Strays forever.
Lastly humans,
The most awesome
In the – say us –
Macrocosm.
What comes after?
None are certain.
(Clapping, bowing,
Music, curtain)
