 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.
