Meet Soul, Karma & Ego

Here is a little ditty loosely inspired by the legend of Pandora’s Box.

Deepwater Pandora Cracked Open 5, 000 ft below sea level

The modern-day Curse of Pandora's box

The admonishment “Work with the heat of the sun, harness the energy of the wind, but what is below must stay below or a curse shall be put on your head and on that of all who come from you” could well have been spoken by Zeus if Hermes, back in 2001, had brought him news of the completion of the oil drilling platform, Deepwater Horizon. “For should you crack open Deepwater Pandora, a fire storm shall chase after gasses. Your generation’s greed shall be reflected in the sea and in the river. Orange under the light of the sun and orange under the mirror of the moon, they shall be. Chaos shall follow. Rain of oil will water your crops. Your birds and all that flies shall lose their wings. All that crawls shall suffocate. Alliances shall be broken. Brother shall come against brother. Harvesters of the sea shall fight and die to fill their nets. Clans shall know hunger and pain. Your most powerful leaders shall scurry like ants in a tormented nest. Mud shall be your only weapon for how dare you plunder what is below!”
