 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.
