Carapace-crawler, plated pilgrim progressing across perilous plain. Treks over tabletop, through the travesties of newspaper ads and corporate coupon handouts. Drowns in gathered stillwater, spilled. Struggles with six legs against impenetrable ethernet barrier.
Aided by the care of a giant, wanders to the edge of the world. Falls off.
(This is a beetle making its way around the crowded surface of my table, helped by my hand.)
