Man And Animal

In the very earliest time,
when both people and animals lived on earth,
a person could become an animal if he wanted to
and an animal could become a human being.
(Daily, man struggling not to be an animal)
Sometimes they were people and sometimes animals
and there was no difference.
(If there is difference is because we chose to believe that. We acted alot more on our natural instinct that we actually know)

All spoke the same language.
(It could be the langauge of love, hate or simply the need to survive)
That was the time when words were like magic.
(Human kind take pride in our ability to speak. Often this ability could be the one that work against us than for us. How many wars are started because of mankind ability to speak? How many human kind have this ability work for them rather than against them?)

The human mind had myserious powers.
A word spoken by chance
might have stranged consequences.
It would suddenly come alive
and what people wanted to happen could happen -
all you had to do was say it.
Nobody could explain this:
That's the way it was.
