[I found this fragment in the middle of the pear I ate 189 days ago during the lunch. The paper was so fragile that it crumbled completely right after I had copied it.]
When our Goddess saw the tower, She emitted a cry of exaltation, for the tower was higher than any tree on Earth;
That cry was heard even in Lemuria, where turtles stopped dancing with seagulls and froze in happy blasphemies.
And in return for their work, She decided to endow the builders with the great gift, namely, giving everybody his own tongue, and so it happened.
But people could not bear the rapture that fell upon them when they began to speak those tongues, and they threw the tongues away from their hearts,
And killed those few who enjoyed the tongues, whereupon our Goddess only said: Oh, fuck you.
As to the tower, it still stands there, but no bipedal creature can see it.
