Waste
The were falling and rotting. So many people in the world starving, but no one was bothered about the thousands of apples rotting away, year after year. What if nothing was wasted? What would the world be like?
Edge of the World
It was like standing on the edge of the world. A vast expanse of nothing. But there is always more. If I set sail from this point, and kept going in a straight line, I would end up in Canada And the world would begin again.
