h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

A*n is a long, long word now what does it mean,
Note it started with an then as it don’t go b.c d
Then ant makes a word I know its an insect small
Id is another word that sounds like Greek for me
Diagrammatic speaking , lets see what word I see
I often wonder if so large is large after all
So yes I’m still wondering if small is small at all,

Then you have macro and microscopic sight
And I know you think a telescope is used to make things bright
But also makes things bigger yes of that your right, but also too be clever
Lets turn round backwards then point back to the sight we saw before
I think that then you’ll find all was big is now so very, very small
Smaller bits are, so much smaller, they hardly seem to show at all.
How ever did the scientists see, at all before this crystal formed?

Much has been said about it, long before it was once called,
Evil as was used by witches in an all seeing crystal ball,
now we all use it for TVs and such stuff, to make it work.
And we also use some of it to decorate our shirts. We fools that is.

Round the world itS uses are varied and some are so strange,
I’ve even heard they used some once as means to make a flame,
Although its rather interesting it detracts you from my point
Not that I am certain, I ever had one if I did it was a very long time ago,
I wasn’t told the word in history but on side of pack of tea, you know.

So keep both eyes open and watch what others see,
much can be observed if memory serves you well,
nothing will escape you from this tale I tell tailed
