Kind of like a desert.
There's too much space
in between. Nothing
absorbs, it just kind
of passes down to the
core where life first
takes place. The layers
are made of sand that
keeps track of everything
that ever was. Some
plants may grow,
but they must be
heavily armed and
persistent, patient
and creative. It
only rains when
certain conditions
are met: mix together
infinite rotations and
an uneven axis so
that the sun is hot
but the moon is cold
–just as they are.
