A hitchhikers guide to no-where!

Only when the stone

fell on him did he realise

he was in the Stone Age.

Luckily his friend, Neanderthal

stood aside surviving death

only to become extinct

through climate change.

So much for the bigger brain!

Lastly, what of Homo sapiens

rulers of our own demise,

again through climate change,

or maybe a war

to put an end to us all.

I wonder if Homo is short for homeless?

Anyway, the future looks bleak

with Mother Earth waving goodbye,

we'll all be space bums at a space station

at a space stop all waiting

to hitch a ride to nowhere in particular.

I wonder, 

what the man in the moon

will think then

as he watches

tens of thousands of monoliths

from graves floating by?

so clever all of the references to prehistoric man.
and you had me humming "Road to Nowhere" by Talking Heads.
