IN THE DARKNESS
When the universe was young, they were already old. They sat and watched as the universe grew old and died. They sat and watched as universe after universe lived and died. Over time, they began to yearn for life. They had seen all that it meant, and yet wanted it anyway. They meant to take it, at any cost. When the next universe was born, they began to influence things, and to gain power. Our ancestors called them gods and great spirits. They were worshipped for a time, but even this did not appease them. They still hungered for what they could never have. Whenever they intervened, wars erupted due to the mistakes they made. These mistakes were sometimes wrongly labeled as sins. Sometimes their anger to become as the living would cause them to reach out and destroy a sun or small planet. Occasionally they would reach out and crush something like a small star. These would cause what we call black holes. This would only increase their anger as they could still not have what they desired most. This anger soon caused them to war against each other with all their power. This in turn destroyed the universe and left them totally in the darkness and powerless. Now they once again sit in darkness, forever denied to see even a spark of that light called life. And somewhere, just beyond their perception, is someone or something that sits and envies what they too can never have and what we do have. It is an old game played, called life and death. Someday, we too may learn to play this game as they do.
