Genesis, Chapter 1

In the beginning was the void And the void was covered with ice They said, "Let us reposition its orbit To make its temperature precise." And the waters began to flow They shaped exactly as it should And thus Galactic Terraforming Saw that it was good So the planet became blue And the air became breathable Countless life forms were shipped in As their creation became habitable And many warring races Engineered the most beautiful plan They created a covenant of peace And thus they called it man And man received a trait From each participating species Making him the most complex enigma So that he could learn how to see And they all made this pact Their first time to agree That when we learn to love each other There will be universal peace
