We once smashed a large barrel of bees that consumed the entire world with incessant buzzing that eventually engulfed the entire universe in flames! From these flames grew giant mutant trees with heads like wolves that terrorized all living creatures for thousands upon thousands of years. From this reign grew a large bubble in the depths of the ocean that was feeding on fear and anger, like an ulcer pulsating in the blackness of sorrow. It grew and grew until the murky depths could no longer contain it's bulbous heart.
As the world watched it rise out of the ocean, the wolves stood motionless with their whips, and the slaves paused and let the wind chill their wounded backsides. Oh how it grew and grew and grew until it could not grow anymore. In one moment of silence that engulfed the entire universe the giant bubble exploded sending all emotion: hate, love, lust, fear, jealously, contempt, prejudice, and envy spiraling out into a blankness of nothing until a new universe was formed. From this universe grew a tree right in the center. Right smack-dab in the center. It was unlike anything anyone has ever seen. Golden branches upon golden branches. If one did not desire gold then it was silver, or brass, or simply wooden. Or simply not a tree at all. And from this tree grew everything anyone has ever known, as it's fruits would fall silent: down, down, down into the hands of unsuspecting consciousness.
And the bubble went on his merry way, making peace with all those minstrels that dance in the night sky.
