 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.
