# yet as sure as global heat rises
messages by omd now plays in the lab background
crap flows downhill in time over project passing researchers by turning particular biocomputing cycles around into hard smart steel biosynth hands of raw holo computational energy
reducing entire islands to a series of manageable spreadsheet stats
no fine touches either leaving researchers high and breathless on a terminal beach of nekrocosmic forever
yet they neverquite mutate into nonthing as dangerous as they want to
never seem to know how lethal or ontologically d00med ir ongoing misadventures are becoming by way of indirect holographic osmosis
then it all becomes another sub project bogged down in inert campus time
so much grinding clock dust so badly accounted for it finally mutates into another entrenched animated puppet institution as there's never enough room for it to go anywhere else
endless layers of inert yellowing office paper in rusty filing cabinets in unknown cellars of sleeping worlds where the irregulars either get out or get dead / regular in a hurry
by end of the first term you can see whole campus sets of impaired internal reflexes
of 'big scientist's once prime sci-dark adventurers living too long on the bloodless fringes of action
broken hearted pretty e-memory ruptured working alone together toward vague university verses
emotionless fragments sadly envisioned as infinite nonlinear series of damp cardboard boxes vague images
abandoned space suit pocket lint in the bottom
saddest casualties of near-future retro 80's excess
the vague promise of good clean service on shiny new re-educational frontiers either long gone or barely surviving
vague salvages of a tepid vision still in love with badly animated apparent social betters
blown in ir synthetic prime by the sheer polyversal scale of an operation they're still only semi conscious of
left now only with a lonely arcadian gift of trusting a few fellow researchers
a thin crust of black ice forms over virtual rented eyes
ir ontological hype jargon dung stream thinning trickling out to nothing much alas
*vague sensory bleep*
