We thought we were made in Gods image – unique - but we looked for others anyway.

Other lights in the galaxy.

We thought we might speak to them, if they existed – through dishes or golden plates etched with our image.

No one answered our whispers in the dark.

But eventually the true Chosen Ones passed our shattered world riding machines that we would never have been able to comprehend.

And, noting that we once existed, moved on their lonely way.

Is this the beginning of a novel?

Not a novel, but it was originally going to be a great deal longer.

I liked this and it seems like you have a lot more ideas in you mind with what to do with it smiley even if you don't have a solid image i think you should devlop this more, maybe try experimenting with character in particular beacuse I am a sucker for deification (i guess you could call it that) of characters and I'd love to read more xx
