The piece wasn't at all based off of that image. I added this image, and changed the piece's name from "Evolution" to "Ambition" for this post to help people understand both its theme and its numerous references.
Each line is an entire story. To tell that story is the novel's job. I feel you've missed the intent of this piece a tad, both thematically (the last line serves a purpose here), and in terms of structure. But I do appreciate that you'd like to read more of the story. You could write that story as well, and I'd love reading it :) I find that I lend myself more to shorter pieces and micro-fictions.
