Potestades Virgo Case

only things grown in the ground remain but mismatched without the hand of man see that they dodge beautiful their languishing longitudinal vegetable bodies never suffer fracture the stems with fruits and their armor and weapons, bark and branches trees no, I didn't think our past was decent humans if you ask me about those days of debauchery we were building ourselves up like the men we now are with wars and ironworks asps vertices vortices cusps and it was discovered that it is easy to be reborn another improvement is advisable there is only one exit after a wall called brain then the field we learned to cultivate now this is what we are having mastered cultivation homunculi like scattered tares sprouting without end the power of some being the downfall of others history built with annihilations and then the progress the home appliances microwave TV freezer wire and electricity then bytes and bits now nanoeverything tomorrow AI and nothing more.

Incredibly astute thinking, Marco. I am heartbroken today over the massacre in Uvale, Texas, or I would write more. I am intrigued by your phrase "improvement is advisable there is only one exit after a wall called brain." Also, "history built with annilhilations and then the progress." I shall ponder these a long, long time.

This is a tragedy that has been repeated all too often. A sad, painful moment. There is nothing that can repair these human losses. I think that's enough, it's time to think of a solution so that this never happens again.
