. They lived in caves As hunter gatherers Nomads Even worse Primitive Primate Under evolved humans As per modern historians Stone Age Cave Dwellers Barely able to light fire No literature no music No sciences nomadic Cavemen to be precise Surely they did not know .. How to build Palaces Forts Had no elephants no sword No raging military no victory Historians barely honor No place for defeatists Pages after pages reel Books after books filled On evolution of species To progeny of monkeys The social animal gradually Came of age and it stepped Out of cave Developed spine Started walking erect now is *****erectus sounds funny Historians like us to believe We are the most evolved Species to have graced The planet Earth Proud As silly now we can build Mega cities steel and concrete Even tools as 3D printing quick Who has time to carve stones Silly cave men they had nails So tough they could scratch Even carve pillars ornate Makes no sense never To a modern man On 3D Autocad You can do it With just one Rev Surf command. With virtual reality in meta We do not carve We crunch Data. Chiseling requires tools Tools have to be smelted. Iron These cave men sure had time We modernists just order online All our tools from Amazon prime. Soon we shall even occupy Mars We are waiting as our Trojan horse Melon Husk is now heading Twitter He is soon to discover an asteroid Hurling towards earth. Wait Fear not that mass is rich With precious metals Gold and Diamond Better get rich Before we can Enrich Mars ., Or other planets. Meanwhile to survive On Earth We are injecting steroids. Hopefully on Mars We shall leave a legacy That will make us proud Like the works of these cave men To be honest those who will travel To Mars will not be good at carving. Seems I’m developing a respect for em They survived wilderness developed tools Were fearless Had knowledge of geology Even geometry these carvings’ so poetic They must have lived long in an age That we call dark no big tech No big Pharma. Amazingly How these cavemen survived The dreaded.—— — BAT VIRUS
