Thicket 08:12
Deep amongst equations Written in the heavens A force outside of time Holy Mountains unbind Emgergent properties Influence history Ancient complexity Enters infinity Thorougly convincing Structures underlying Nested simulations Conjuring Illusions Thicket! The essence that gives form to all things Thicket! The dark sea wherein light roils Thicket! The source from which simulacra emerge Thicket!

Ritual digital communion Shamanic ascension into cyberspace Collections of consumed media We are drawn into the screens glowing before us Truly, we could know it all, but would it be enough?
