 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.
