Galactic Naturalist

Prior to the Shift
As we see in this hologram
The Terran Hominid
Remained in a primitive
Condition

All the signs are there
Tiny, single pupilled eyes
Projecting nose and bulbous brow
Diminshed cranium
And of course the enormous mouth

At this stage
They are only beginning
To lose their teeth…
