Enigma #midnighthaiku

Human enigma
Achieves the impossible
Denies evidence

The valley is flooded. Beneath it two villages are drowned. Modern Man works engineering miracles then sails on his creation, trusting his eyes and self-satisfaction.

Above the valley are sculpted hills, crowned by the works of ancient Man, crafted in stone. Did Man sculpt those hills? “Impossible!” they say, laughing, dismissing the works of ‘cave men’.

    I hate those damming projects. They destroy so much in their path.

      This one was done a long time ago and with some care for the villages… though I doubt the folk who lived there thought so. I’d love to know what archaeology they ‘missed’ though….
