โ๏ธ Before the Fall
Krypton was dying.
But not from war.
Not from a sun gone mad.
It died from parasites.
Microscopic. Merciless.
Feeding on light. On life.
And one species evolved to fight them:
The Kryptoninsecta.
Guardians of the soil.
Burrowers of heat and light.
One queen.
One egg.
One hope.
๐ Escape
Jor-El changed the plan.
Not a crib.
Not a child.
He sent the egg.
Wrapped in amber.
Coded with solar instincts.
Destination: Earth.
๐ Metamorphosis
It landed in Kansas.
A farmer found it.
Cracked it.
Out came… not a baby.
Not a bug.
But something between.
Chitin under skin.
Wings under ribs.
Eyes that saw beyond the spectrum.
๐ฆธ Becoming
The sun fed him.
The insects obeyed him.
He heard the termites, the bees, the wasps.
He became their king.
Their protector.
Their weapon.
They called him…
Superman.
