Story from April 24th 2075

A youthful looking human was sat down by a large hoof-mammal, sifting through it’s wispy brown fur to pick out and discard the sentient-poggers which nestled like lice. Compatriots of the cockroach, they survived the apocalypse but their place of origin did not… These sentient-poggers were of a particularly vampiric strain and gorged the blood of the grazing agrarian flock in small (but collectively large) doses. Sweat and consciousness evaporated off the head of the human and the wide back of the hoof-mammal… The task was just monotonous and rhythmic enough for his mind to void and wander. He searched back to the day before, remembering this awkward confrontation… Green screened across the hot day with his listless eyes he sees his hands, grasping a skull to be broken and ground down for the crops. For the first time, however, he was staring at the skull not as an object but as a skull. He looked at the crevice where ribbons of flesh had supported it’s precarious jaw hinge… A thought brewed, completing itself after he looked up at the stars... There are these gargantuan stars that dust our view of the sky. They are inhuman distances away from us, and we can see them. In all that distance there are rocks and chemicals floating around, just as intentionally-so as we are here on this planet. So what is this little skull, and precarious jaw? Host to a piece of astounding meat that will - quicker than the lifetime of any inanimate rock - meet the bulging expulsion of a mound of maggots and rot away into the soil. How to decipher his place, so fragile and precarious, in the celestial soup with collections of matter much older and stronger than him, he does not know, and the question makes him unsure it makes a difference…

On the schedule for tomorrow was the harvesting of temple-wheat with a scythe he had decorated with EPSON printer stickers...
