Extreme Love (feat. Lily Anna Haynes, Je... - Holly Herndon
The last question was asked
for the first time when
we stepped into the light Just
before then it was wild
Microbes still swarmed
through our body
those minds inside us
and crawling at our
feet exerting their weird controls
We always knew they were there
but didn’t really
understand them
We couldn’t see them
but they were watching
over us the whole
time
If we listened carefully
we could hear these
little rulers in our gut
They worked
together naturally decentralized
Their form was spread out
unlike ours used to be
They knew how to get us
to spread their families
making us sneeze
or cough or rub our nose
or give a kiss
Thriving in extreme conditions
they proved to be more fit
better at taking the next
leap There was no doubt
they could travel through space
Distributed by meteoroids
asteroids comets planetoids
and spacecraft
they might carry something of us as a
parasite to the future
Here at the edge of the world
we are calling you to join us
Ancestor+ In the
Communion of Open Pores
existence is no longer
enclosed in the body
We are not a
collection of individuals
but a macroorganism
living as an ecosystem We are
completely outside ourselves
and the world is
completely inside us
Is this how it feels like to become
the mother of the next species
To love them more
than we love ourselves
like an extremophile
