the opening of time it begins with an eye colored orange and floating dense the cell makes organelles awake, alert to observe their host, a pilot ghost. The mind, science borne, and logic copes. It's everything you see upon a microscope. And people talk of a unit cell of life that begins with dust coalesced and fusion to make ignite it spins in discs, like rings, it spins in discs like rings to find we coalesce, cool, and somehow it sometimes rains, protein shells, electric storms, keep it up, keep it up.

Somehow, you destroy Evolution gets unraveled. No one says it's linear and No one knows the R-squared. It could be a wrong turn. A wrong turn. You made it with the industry and you made it with the iron and you made it out of information and you're so tight You've expired. You've expired. You might meet a ghost when you're on Earth. And he might ask you to do all sorts of things. He might make up suicide missions to tiny little rocks of iron, but you don't have to do what he says, No you don't have to do just anything.

and I will always be here waiting for you. Hanging in the same sky, replete of the same iron. I will always be here waiting for you, tugging against hematite carvings (candid thoughts shared from a farmer) I will always be here waiting for you. Terraforming, until it's all green, you could make a new state, make a new state rise from the grave. Be open to change, they collect the waves. Collect the waves... and you are the first of your kind... You are the first of your kind making thin lines in deserts so wide and there are millions on the dole, to be precise, they fit buildings into trucks, and there are millions of other people waiting for something...

gravity well 02:47
Mass Divided by Seconds Squared. It’s escape speed (not velocity) I know you're coming, now for me. root 2 G m / r is nu sub e You make a well defined trajectory. You take me back when I can't succeed. You take everything for the Jovian.

the lights 02:50
One of the hazards of being exposed is being a target. Cells. Particles of high energy. It dances. Dances. In your retina flash the random lights. When you close your eyes, random nuclei. Take a second. Turn off the lights. Close your eyelids and watch for specks of green and violet.

tiny sound 03:58
I am always calming down like it's the last word in the world. I could breathe real slowly, caught in all the worlds that wander. In the past, collisions, keeping all the surface on its side The way you rotate there, the shadows long, the sun just makes its arcs across the sky, on one horizon, tied to the edge. You'll always know where you are. You'll always know where you are, tiny sound.

and I can hear your evolving it sounds like braces as the teeth strain T(ri)T(on) I can see it in the way you spin. Is there more?
8.
In the expanse the hides behind your eyes there are stones. Your head's full of rocks, Baby. And wherever you go you carry them with you the random debris that you're too afraid to throw. There is a place and there is a time and it must leave the room Soon, It doesn't make sense so just send it out along with the other 98 red balloons. When I was young there was a devil, another lifestyle, another lifecycle. Awaken all your reason. Awaken all the heat. Baby, you look all right. Baby, you sound fine. You sound fine. When you've lived your life in there how can anything compare? When you've spent your time in France how can you bridge that great expanse? When what you want is really just yourself then why are you in the Kuiper belt? When there's no matter, only time, to mark your post, will you just float?
