 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.
