We are creatures atop and below whose ancestors joined long ago.
Slimed together in gelatinous biological glue swallowed into the maw of an elastic fish.
I don't know why I think myself alive, I, suffused among masses of soft automata, each with its own god, can hear the pumps and wonder.

was yesterday hearing the powerful engine hum of a yacht and wondered at the smooth power and even more at the power of the human body as it evolved in response to so many challenges.

I'm glad it evoked a memory. Thanks Dunstan.
