.Life began millennia ago
Thousands of years, and ages past
At the time is seems slow
But in reality goes by so fast
Dinosaurs and spiders
Raptors and crocodiles
Winged creatures – gliders
Fish with big toothy smiles
A meteor destroys them
Makes way for Neanderthal
Not wearing stones or gems
In fact, wearing nothing at all
Many centuries go past
As man starts to grow
Each age adds to the last
Forcing leaders to show
Inventors come forth
Giving us enhancement
Man gets stuck in a rut
In need of advancement
The intelligence of man
Comes up with a solution
Nothing ever goes as planned
They destroy us with pollution
fish with seven eyes
lobsters the size of a house
progress destroys us
