 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.
