    As the massive weight of what I’ve done thus far overcomes me, the realization of what I must do to carry on washes over me like a wave of molten salt - every atom of my body paralyzed; vibrating.

    Somewhere distant, a groundhog eats a mushroom and for a fleeting moment glimpses what it is like to be a drop of dew; it is driven insane with this insight.

       And in a hint of a spark, comes a rare moment,
       no more than once in a hacker's lifetime,
       where the machine reveals itself, before
       it quickly fades away again in a gust of perl.
