“Is that your
final answer?”
The Spanish
Inquisition* #quote
Today I went to my Pokemon card game thing. Glad I don't play Poker.
I would have had one less shirt by the end of the night. Anyway onto
the flash fiction!
Ruining Ruins
We'll construct a city! We'll make a monument! The people decide to
leave their mark on the land. Magnificent structures are built and
the ruins of the old are wiped out or damaged for the new along with
all the history.
A few decades later some new voices speak: We'll construct a city!
We'll make a monument! The people decide to leave their mark on the
land. Magnificent structures are built and the ruins of the old are
wiped out for the new along with all the history.
Then after that it begins again and again. All as humanity marches
on. And the first mentioned were no modern people. They were the ones
who stripped the marble from the pyramids many years ago. But
eventually what they created became stripped for parts itself.
Every person that cries “We'll build a city!” is building
eventual ruins.
