What do we really know? All that is worth
knowing, we have convinced ourselves. The
species whose conceit of exceptionalism assures
that we are nature's favourite offspring. We are
subservient to nature and all else that exists bows
to our superiority. Nothing, however, stops us
from challenging nature, stretching the boundaries
of her expectations when she designed habitat for
each of her creatures, watching with patience and
curiosity as impudent humanity began devising
an increasingly diverse environment of shelters
spurning the habitation lesser creatures settle for
while endlessly speculating and experimenting with
the vast plethora of nature's building blocks, an
explosion of science confusing itself with nature
daring to explore new horizons, remote, isolated
utterly alien to replace the home nature specifically
designed to contain humanity's destructive ambition.
From the dawn of human existence to the present
one bold scheme following another, using nature's
elements and her generosity to go farther and further
yet from humble and rude habitat to rule the Galaxy
leaving nature bemused and amused at her feeble
offspring laying waste to their haven spinning on
its axis and trembling in anxious trepidation.
