 can you feel it? behind  things,  inside 
      things, something is happening.     
    something between nothing and the     
           collapse of reality.           
                                          
 the  objects themselves do  not  change. 
 the  physicality of  a  person stays the 
                  same.                   
                                          
 but  items   have  relations   with  one 
 another,  and  here  is the  revolution. 
    the relationships congregate, the     
 networks become  meshes, and they spread 
 out  like  heat nets  over  kale  farms. 
                                          
 things  become  part  of bigger  things. 
 people  become  part of  bigger  actors. 
 often too big  to  be seen - but perhaps 
                 felt...                  
                                          
 lets walk backwards  trough  the sludge! 
 what's an  animal? a collective of cells 
        with a single mind (kinda)        
 what's a cell?  actually in  this  sense 
 it's  a  collective of cells and  lesser 
   molecular machines ("proteins" et al)  
            and other fragments           
                                          
 what's  a  molecule?  just  a  bunch  of 
 atoms bound (fey concept) together  by a 
          set of ineffable rules          
 what's  an  atom?  (things  are  getting 
 alien  at  this  point)  well  basically 
              it's an "orb"               
                                          
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                          
 we're gonna lose  ourselves in it. maybe 
 we   have   been    for   some    while.
