Glad you found this little bit of history once again! Disturbing at first, but masterful too... watching the pea grow, and experience, and make it to the very end... a surprisingly emotional end too. Damn. I'm a have some trouble eating my peas after this...
It's a lot like the real world though innit. We just have to make the best of our days, try our hardest... and then it's over. I can see why people remember this.
