Slugging it Out

Crypto beasts once roamed the earth
with all the other regular monsters.

Early man was still a fish-like slug,
which was a good thing,
because the fish-like slug was itself,
only slowly evolving.

Thus, all unknowing,
potential humanity
slithered around its thick alluvial ponds,
blissfully unaware
that for a few more million years,

Mother Nature
would still be running around
with Her hair on fire.
