the world we know is long gone

I got to hold a 500,000 year old hand axe at the museum today.

It's right-handed

I am right-handed

There are grooves for the thumb and knuckle to grip that fit my hand perfectly

I have calluses there from holding my stylus and pencils and the gardening tools.

There are sharper and blunter parts of the edge, for different types of cutting, as well as a point for piercing.

I know exactly how to use this to butcher a carcass.

A homo erectus made it

Some ancestor of mine, three species ago, made a tool that fits my hand perfectly, and that I still know how to use.

Who were you

A man? A woman? Did you even use those words?

Did you craft alone or were you with friends? Did you sing while you worked?

Did you find this stone yourself, or did you trade for it? Was it a gift?

Did you make it for yourself, or someone else, or does the distinction of personal property not really apply here?

Who were you?

What would you think today, seeing your descendant hold your tool and sob because it fits her hands as well?

What about your other descendant, the docent and caretaker of your tool, holding her hands under it the way you hold your hands under your baby's head when a stranger holds them.

Is it bizarre to you, that your most utilitarian object is now revered as holy?

Or has it always been divine?

Or is the divine in how I am watching videos on how to knap stone made by your other descendants, learning by example the way you did?

Tomorrow morning I am going to the local riverbed in search of the appropriate stones, and I will follow your example.

The first blood spilled on it will almost certainly be my own, as I learn the textures and rhythm of how it's done.

Did you have cuss words back then? Gods to blaspheme when the rock slips and you almost take your thumbnail off instead? Or did you just scream?

I'm not religious.

But if spilling my own blood to connect with a stranger who shared it isn't partaking in the divine

I don't know what is.

I made you incredibly sad again.

I was thinking about how an episode of the office would go during the pandemic (assuming everyone still had to come into work.) and it’s actually pretty hilarious.

Michael would hold a meeting in the conference room about the dangers of Covid. He would try and hang out masks, giving the gay pride one to Oscar, and Oscar would ask why he has to wear that one. And Michael stutters and says he doesn’t he was just the closest to him. Ends up tossing it to Andy.

Michael would also have to explain to everyone why they are essential workers and have to come to work. Getting upset that people don’t think paper is essential.

Dwight would refuse to wear a mask because he’s stronger then some dumb virus. Survival of the fittest he says

Jim would prank him somehow, ending up getting him to wear a mask. At some point him and Dwight would be wearing three to four masks each

Creed would be in the background just wearing his mask on his forehead

Ryan would say it’s all a scheme by the government

Maradith would be at home because her kid would actually be in a lot of danger if exposed to Covid

Angela would have a cat mask

Kevin would come up to reception to get some candy and eat it right there. Pam would ask him to put his mask on, to which Kevin would say, “but Pam, if I had my mask on, I wouldn’t be able to eat the candy.” And Pam would reply, “how about you take the candy back to your desk and eat it there?” And Kevin would say, “really?! Ok!” And take the whole jar.

Phyllis would have a little Etsy company going where she makes cute masks and sells them online

Stanley would have a mask that says, “I’m essential.”

Kelly would be upset that people couldn’t see her beautiful face, until Michael tells her that Beyoncé wears one or something.

Just so much potential! Please comment more if you have any.
