Wars before Time

I have heard stories of Titans
and Olympians
and of a war to take,
a war to hold the universe.
I have heard stories of Norse, of a world
birthed from ice,
a world birthed from war.
I have heard stories of lands
before time,
and time and time again
history repeats itself.
Oh –
poor creature, our earth.
A mere spoil stocked underneath
the pillars
of several other cold wars.
Oh –
miserable thing of multiple origins.
I have heard stories about you, about your
unknowing in the beginning
and tales of your unknowing to come.
Yet, we dare ask what was
and what will be.
History repeats itself, time and time again
but what do I know
of wars before time?
