In the Nursery

It was as if surprise assembled itself for it came as by degree-- a presence...there by light, unannounced and unassuming, taking form, robotic, stillness, frame-by frame and in fairness the observer plays his role as the intruder, and at once, the helpless pawn. "It is as we had feared," he thought. "Technology has slipped a cog, released its madness, but calmly enough... since there is no recovery." ~
