 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.
