When the World Was Flat
There was no rotation around the sun
Earth was the center of the universe without rotating
People would literally go Medieval on your ass
Ships on the ocean were frequently eaten by sea monsters
Or fell off the planet due to poor navigational planning
They say the worlds end is near
Parasites lived within all human beings back then
Making holes and lesions on faces of the people
Dating and good looks did not go hand in hand
When I was young there was no food to eat
We lived on religion and the word of God
The Dark Ages were darker than you think
Parents died at age twenty five or five
I can't remember
No medicine or science at that time
There were plenty of leeches though to suck your blood
Love was in the air in Spring
Black Plague was everywhere
When the world was flat not too long ago
They still had snow and shovels
Shovels were used exclusively to dig a grave
Kept busy in every season for no particular reasons
