And I, delusional, chewed a whole into my arm down to the bone, from drone boredom. I, now, have robot friend, sprockets, and oily tears.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;I call my friend &lt;em&gt;Robo, &lt;/em&gt;and he seems not to mind. And when I dance with &lt;em&gt;Robo&lt;/em&gt; he seems not to mind. And when I yell at &lt;em&gt;Robo&lt;/em&gt; he seems not to mind. And when I kill &lt;em&gt;Rob&lt;/em&gt;o he seems not to mind. And when I cry Robo also cries, but his are oily tears. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;like a low-dose electron beam.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;This place has a culture of artifice,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;with slippery people,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and their posture is maddening.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;About a place, here,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;it will drive any sane to insane.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Beyond this place there are only more,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and even further beyond, emptiness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;When the sun stayed away,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and when ice covered my skin.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;It may just be the brisk oceanic under-toe,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;or the lamp-shade upon my head,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;but I do miss all of my days;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

And I wonder if I died yesterday during my dream. Was I was reborn into an old body, with old thoughts, and old habits this morning? I wonder if we die every time we dream; if we die every time we dream. And I wonder if we are simply reborn into an old body every morning, to occupy an abandoned life. &lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and my days melt into nights&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;as my dreams are confused by reality.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;A once steady state equilibrium&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;becomes a chaotic swirl,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and my mind has become a damp sponge;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;porous, amorphous.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

So important, it seems, that words would not do justice, not even loud words; instead they opt to have a loud body. Their body screams: “look at me, I can irreversibly pour metallic dispersions under my skin, so you can see my important messages.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;     &lt;/span&gt;Spindly and death-shaped nanoparticles have received significant attention for their unique psychotropic and creepy properties, but most examples of such nanoparticles have a zero-dimensional shape. These nanoparticles are synthesized in the presence of liquefied evil, by a witchcraft-mediated approach. The extent of the death-shape can be varied, leading to shifts in the murderous-resonance of the particles. In addition, the application of the death spindles for murder and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy is demonstrated.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;“Nowadays people know the price of everything and the value of nothing.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;−&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Oscar Wilde; &lt;em&gt;The Picture of Dorian Gray (&lt;/em&gt;1890)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Nowadays people worship technology,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;and that is all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;I saw a young man drop his iApparatus, and I’ve never observed such horror of a man, or of a man’s face. It was as though the there was a deadly pit viper that had lunged onto him. It was then as though a comet would rain from the stars onto his current position, for his iApparatus was no more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;where worries break free,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;is where I can be,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and I was.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;And my fly hit the churning creek,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;I watched it float past green-fuzz stumps,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;it waited upon a deep pool,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and I was.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;A &lt;em&gt;small&lt;/em&gt; man grabbed my fly&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and it ran along the bank,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;then found a deep pool to fight with me,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and I was.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;I did not want this to happen,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;there was serenity in the churning creek,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;there were worries breaking free,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and I was.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Out in the backcountry,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;now with a &lt;em&gt;small&lt;/em&gt; man &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and I fought him in,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;and I was.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

His arms went limp, chest began to swell, knees and legs became rubber-bands. Then a tremendous bone-crunch crack, his gut spilled open like a slowly bursting dam, and his entrails hit the floor with a splash. As his head rolled-off, bouncing into a puddle of blood, it threw teeth and tongue around the room. Piece by piece hit the floor as he fell apart into many different bits; it was quite a site for a &lt;em&gt;small&lt;/em&gt; man.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
