Disobedient Nature by Le Renard Rouge, Christopher Wojcik

May 30th, 2008 2:51 PM / Location: 42.274757,-83.74134

INSTRUCTIONS: Search for, find, document an example of nature refusing to yield to or blending itself into a construction of modern man.

Document with photos when possible.

Examples should document situations where man has put up some restraint for nature and nature has disobeyed. While trees or other permanent plants are preferable, a basic example would be plants that grow in the cracks of the sidewalk.

Beloved Mother Nature,

I am dreadfully sorry. My brethren Homo sapiens and I have failed you. You have been our mother, our creator, our provider, and our sustainer, yet we have done naught to thank you for you benevolence and kindness. We in turn have depleted, drained, drilled, and nearly destroyed you in our ever growing quest for luxury and advancement. There are no words in any tongue that can express my utmost sincere apologies and lamentations for the rape you have sustained and the hands of your most ungrateful children, we... the humans.

I pray we soon see the dreadful errors of our ways, before it's too late.

Gratefully, you have other children, your soldiers and brainchildren, your flora. They are appreciative of your generosity, and will do what they have to to punish your juviniles-gone-wrong for their trespassing and ungraciousness. Here I document one battle among many between your finest flora and your lowest fauna. I beg you to continue to fight back against our intrusion and repulsive ravaging.

Gaea, I cannot apologize enough.

This is a testament to your warriors.

More success for Mother Earth's army... the sturdiness of metal is no match for the inexorable inescapability of the growth of fauna.

Here is the leader of Gaea's forces, he has done the most damage, augmented morale, and continues to do what must be done to protect his mother and provider.


Wasted

Laying waste to man's pathetic creations has been child's play for Gaea... I truly hope she doesn't decide to unleash her full force on Man... we would stand no chance.
