 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.
