The Eschaton of the Troglodyte

One million years ago Before everything we know Was "this" even here On the galactic frontier? For some there's no debate There was some extant state For some there's no dispute God's mouth still lay mute Such a frothy matter With such uncivil chatter And a million years from today Will we have seen doomsday? What of this present moment And all its' many components? Is this the nexus of it all? End of the aesthete and Neanderthal?

End of the Neanderthal? I think not. I was wondering about doomsday this week, however, as the internet is down at school and at a post office. "such a frothy matter with such uncivil chatter" somehow delighted me terribly. Blessings Trey.

Thanks Caren, the Cro-Mags are definitely among us, some of them leading us. :)
