my gripe is simple.

you've made a Device - a failsafe patch fix with very conditional operating instructions.

you've procured, proclaimed, a Solution.

you've done yourself very well, with your Tampering.

you've made yourself very happy, with your Connections.

but each Device is a deadly Wrinkle and every Wrinkle forms a deadlier Rift--

my gripe is simple. human.

 

 

upon this yawning precipice do i hang

i am not free

i will never be free

so long as there are Devices

but i was here at the Beginning and i must proclaim the End

and i am tired

so tired

of waiting
