 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.
