Maybe Lucas was right? I could try poetry out again, without the influence of Amortentia. Just for comparison.

[Multiple versions, scribbled out and rewritten various ways, with the last version reading:]
The world did not begin with Adam, it began with atom, but I like the way they sound the same.
I remember the first time I saw Rutherford’s model, suspended from a classroom ceiling. It looked just like the solar system.
I thought, that’s our everything, and one small piece of it.
It is infinitesimal. It is celestial.
We are ants, passing beneath constellations made of dandelion seeds as we march toward survival.
But we are cyclopean, leviathan. We are titans, and we have touched the sky.
Though we may scramble in the dirt, we yet reach for the stars.

[...] Stupid. I'm sticking to sculpture.
