   Epistemologies vary.   
   Mythological etchings etch a sketch.   
      
   Once up   
   on a time one time two   
   beings at the speed of light were   
   speeding across a galaxy known as the   
   Milky Way of all Ways when suddenly one of   
   the one couple thought to the other, here we are   
   going without going at the speed of light when   
   time stops and where distance is no longer.   
      
   Look there, thought the other to the one, look at   
   that pale blue dot. And so they went to investigate   
   and before they went entirely through, being more   
   akin to neutrino beings at that point they stopped.   
      
   This globe, of a truth it appeared to be a pale blue dot now   
   appears to be of many thousands of units thick and in its   
   molten interior is not much going on to think of. As well,   
   thought the other to the one, between the distances   
   of all the spheres in this sun's system is nothing of   
   much interest aside from all the waves of all the   
   fields and such, at various velocities waving.   
      
   Yet on the surface, where the rock is solid and look,   
   there, here is liquid water and what are those forms,   
   all the chemicals taking shape and transforming, wow!   
      
   - where the action is ... and much drama unfolding ...
