evolution

take a pile of bricks,
grey hard cinder blocks too,
some wire, some metal,
sheets of glass, iron rods,
steel, plastic, concrete,
and pile it all into
a steep hill of debris.
wait a million years,
maybe more, two or three
million years perhaps,
let lighting strike
the hill of nothing,
add water, why not,
and then before you know
it a building will
suddenly arise, perfect,
in shape and form,
the lights go on, the
elevator is smooth, phones
are working, computers
are abuzz, the windows are
in place, desks and chairs
have appeared. cold water
springs from the fountains
within, and from this building
other buildings too have
sprouted up from just
being near, all different,
all unique, all perfect
and in this way cities will
populate the earth.
