Before history everything was wild and food was plentiful. It's said God created paradise so that we would multiply.
Generations passed and the world became more crowded. Our philosophers asked "Who are we?" Our scholars asked "What is the world?"
A group of scientists said that because resources are finite we must limit our numbers. Religious leaders retorted that God commands us to multiply. Ultimately we lacked the political will to change.
We tried to escape but in the end we choked on our own wastes.
The home of our people became a tomb. Our Epitaph read Chateau Margaus 1995.
