Microbes
Whilst creating this, I did get to thinking about what the viewer would make of such an impression. Was it a laser blast? Some corrosive material? An ant? Yet I bet very few would be thinking
on a microscopic level. And this in turn this got me to thinking about what destroyed the Martians from H. G. Wells’s War of the Worlds. Personally, I was siding on a microscopic
level. And how so many with so little, together, over time can achieve the seemingly impossible. And I believe that pretty much sums us up. But only if we work together. Microbes unite.
