An ecosystem searching for metabolic paths of survival,
the metaphysical cost is an obscurus, hiding at an anti-garden whose name is HOAX
(a fear of migratory touring tests in the post-2100s, when ambience has never existed)

allowing, absorbing teleological programs, so that a cognitive light cone might exceed its boundaries. Even as the bulbous Nested peer idly at me
