And then the Earth will become more of
a protected national park, of sorts, of humanity.
Humanity will preserve our planet
as a pristine protected area
for humans to come,
perhaps to spend vacation.
You spend 6 months working in some other place
and after you gather enough money
you could come and spend some vacation
on a nice beach on planet Earth.
And when they made it
back 820 years later
this Earth had no people left.
It was waiting there as a national park.
This plateau was their landing site
as there were no more airfields
no towns, no bridges, no dams,
no money, no banks, no time and no breath.
It had returned to its pristine beauty.
It was prehistoric again.
And this is what it looks like.
