    Depends on your timeline, if you want it done by next week you are probably a little on the overly ambitious side. No reason you can't write it as long as you are realistic about it.

    When the grugs descended from the trees to evade the wicked jaguars because gruggettes invented nagging vocalization they found a strange and foreign land. A grug here found that putting rock on stick made hammer, a grug there put stick to tree struck by lightning and made fire portable. The gruggettes would not stop nagging vocalization though and the grugs met in secret to practice thinking and vocalization. This accidentally created language and the trappings contained therein led to a constant progression of grug into a society and a collective understanding to say human. Despite the constant evolution of society, gruggette vocalization has never progressed beyond nagging.

      I mean, Cormac McCarthy, who's supposed to be so bloody wonderful, padded that out to two hundred and fifty pages ... lost all the tension

        Focus on whether or not she's crazy and spot the tonal shift that occurs in both (noting where and how your perception of the characters changes afterward).

      Ok, I'll start at the very beginning

      First, the Big Bang; expansion of space-time.
      Before its heated course we cannot say.
      Our laws are broken at its conception
      And it's expanding is continuing.
      Though we know it expanded much faster
      In those primordial moments of time
      When the first particles became and danced.

    All depends on how specific you want to get. Write a selection and extrapolate it out to human history. If it’s too much, be less specific.

    Pretentious but likely to bear fruit in (restricted) areas. If you aren't memeing post the results or turn it into a blog we can look at.

    I really like the Age of Man by Greta van Fleet, but I was disappointed that it wasn't a historical ballad that started with man discovering fire. Please anon, write the song it could have been.

    All humans desire huger wieners and frick to that effect
    As languages' blessed conscious affect to them to there
    They hid the fat wiener not in their face or c**t or arsé
    Yet instead in their acts or fecundity as if they
    Could possess the absence they possessed as an absent absence
    They need the wiener
    But it endlessly retreats from them
    Driven endlessly forwards in time
    Like an angel facing backwards
    Spurting thick loads of culture.
