The intelligent corals of Betathon 5
Everything has to be broken away from;
everything has to be come back to.
There must be a failing under the strain, and a growing back.
There must be new failures and new mismatches (surprises),
as when something that does not make one smell/taste bad to oneself makes one smell/taste bad to another; one must discover that.
(There must be more than the one judge; one must not be all there is.)
There must come about a knowledge of motion, an awareness that one-and-many is travelling new areas, surveying new territories of possible failures and mismatches and ways in which things may happen. There must come abstraction and experiment and supposition: conception.
There must be a circling of the world; there must come an awareness that a world is being circled; there must come a theory of worlds.
This is a story of your past; this is a story of your future; this is the recipe fractal.
(This is not everyone’s story; this is not a magic story or a necessary story. Some stay in one shape and place; some become corpses as they are; corpses are left behind; corpses are come across and discovered after a circling of the world.
Little can happen in constant success and perfect solid state.)
It must all be incarnate; there must be a painful stumbling over every juncture of it. There is no virtual life. It must all be real, and somebody there.
After a circling of the world, what fearful new necessities are seen?
This did not show up on my Bookmarks. Oh, OD! Good to see you beginning to write again. Continue please?
