Once upon a time, when there was little water and too much sand, there lived five monkeys on top of a mountain where they drank from ice and ate dry grass. There were no sun and no moon, so there was little light and too much dark. It was very harsh to live but live, they must. 754Please respect copyright.PENANAoxaoOBshj3

The five monkeys were different and special; the first monkey couldn’t see and so was always looking, the second monkey couldn’t smell and so was always sneezing, the third monkey couldn’t taste and so was always hungry, the fourth monkey couldn’t feel and so was always strong, and the fifth monkey couldn’t hear and so was always mute.754Please respect copyright.PENANAv2kTncxm5m
The monkey that was eye-less dug into the peaks of snow and felt something metal fall into its hands. It found a brass bell. Upon trembling and rattling it, a beautiful song escaped to the sky and made it cry. Rain came for some time until the canyons and deserts became sea, and the mountain was now an island of green. 754Please respect copyright.PENANAQF4w0VQSyv

The monkey that was eye-less fell in love with how the dewdrops plopped on and tickled its hair. The monkey that was nose-less fell in love with how the grass tasted so fresh. The monkey that was tongue-less fell in love with how charming the rain smelled. The monkey that was hand-less fell in love with the bell-song and the changes it brought with it, so they all honored the eye-less monkey as a tremendous part of this new world.754Please respect copyright.PENANAQRnvxRpxhL
But the eye-less monkey was humble and told them it had only found the bell, so they were certain that there must be more if they would just seek hard enough. It was still very harsh to live but live, they must.754Please respect copyright.PENANAftApIxAvQ5
The monkey that was nose-less roamed through the forests of green and felt something metal fall into its hands. It found a silver flute. Upon breathing through it with its mouth, a brave song escaped to the sky and made it dance. Fruits fell for some time until the grass was beaten into hilly farms and there were clouds, and the island was now a country of color. 754Please respect copyright.PENANACtuujIdDAD

The monkey that was eye-less fell in love with how the wind ruffled and tickled its hair. The monkey that was nose-less fell in love with how the fruits tasted sweeter. The monkey that was tongue-less fell in love with how exciting the wind smelled. The monkey that was hand-less fell in love with the flute-song and the changes it brought with it, so they all honored the nose-less monkey as a tremendous part of this new world.754Please respect copyright.PENANAVwH94QWt1p
But like the eye-less monkey, the nose-less monkey was humble and told them it had only found the flute, so they were more certain that there must be more if they would just seek hard enough. It was still very harsh to live, but live, they must.
The monkey that was tongue-less clambered up to the highest cloud and felt something metal fall into its hands. It found a golden guitar. Upon strumming and picking it, a wild song escaped to the sky and made it shiver. Snow came for some time until things were fresh and animals walked the ice bridges to come live in their country. 754Please respect copyright.PENANArvrcw8JfN5

The monkey that was eye-less fell in love with how the snowflakes melted on and tickled its hair. The monkey that was nose-less fell in love with how the grass and fruits tasted colder. The monkey that was tongue-less fell in love with how pure the snow smelled. The monkey that was hand-less fell in love with the guitar-song and the changes it brought with it, so they all honored the tongue-less monkey as a tremendous part of this new world.754Please respect copyright.PENANAjeD7v9SxC1
But like the eye-less monkey and the nose-less monkey, the tongue-less monkey was humble and told them it had only found the guitar, so they were more certain that there must be more if they would just seek hard enough. It was still very harsh to live, but live they must.
The monkey that was hand-less slept by the sea and felt something metal fall into its throat. It swallowed a diamond ring. Upon screaming and howling, a holy voice escaped to the sky and made it shine. Fire came for some time until the sun rose and the moon appeared. 754Please respect copyright.PENANAabeS8FLXPc

The monkey that was eye-less fell in love with how the heat kissed and tickled its hair. The monkey that was nose-less fell in love with how the grass and fruits tasted hotter. The monkey that was tongue-less fell in love with how spicy the smoke smelled. The monkey that was hand-less fell in love with its own voice and the changes it brought with it, so they all honored the hand-less monkey as a tremendous part of this new world.
But the hand-less monkey was not humble at all. It talked too much and bragged a lot. It said many lies and that it found the very last instrument, so they were certain there wasn’t any more and they would stop seeking. It was still very harsh to live, but live they must.754Please respect copyright.PENANADsveirSjl7
The monkey that was ear-less saw the best and the worst come to pass, and wondered little of the songs it did not understand. Because it was quiet, it puzzled all the monkeys who gathered to describe it. Something had to be wrong with it if it could not hear their amazing music. 754Please respect copyright.PENANAch1uovyoeI
754Please respect copyright.PENANAAPOwSmAvWU
Eventually, they grew to love its silence and would easily fall asleep around it, so they all honored the ear-less monkey for doing nothing, nothing at all. But this angered the ear-less monkey who could not understand its family and friends. It ran far away so it could seek for another instrument, for its own song. It caused terrible commotion in the community where noise overlapped one another, and no one but the ear-less monkey could sleep. Monsters and predators crept from the dark, liken hate, ready to devour them all.754Please respect copyright.PENANA81rLWfYQl0
At last, pounding into the mountain with its fists, it felt something metal fall into its hands. It found a steel drum. Upon banging and thumping, an explosion escaped to the sky and made it roar. Lightning cracked and thunder shook the earth in fury. The mountain burst with fire and the ocean slapped the island. Then finally, they were saved and the monsters and predators ran away, yipping with tails in between their legs, never to return. 754Please respect copyright.PENANAtmBakgwFtI

The monkeys fell in love with the bass for it brought rock-and-roll and they all honored the ear-less monkey as a tremendous part of this new world.754Please respect copyright.PENANAuNhSk8JxqA
But the ear-less monkey was the most humble of all and felt silence is good, so they all agreed to bury the instruments into the earth until they needed them again. They were certain there were many, many more but they would not stop seeking, because they brought many, many changes that were good. 754Please respect copyright.PENANAeOpOzBlTtz
