FROM THE OUTER REACHES OF THE UNIVERSE

There seems to be an edge to what we see, a curved border that seems to close in on things around the perimeters, until everything that exists seems to be contained in one tiny glass bead-- --which is actually a marble resting on a strange-looking patch of red dirt.

An ALIEN HAND reaches down and flicks the marble, sending it skittering and bouncing across the dirt, where it CLICKS into a dozen other

big blue glass beads     just like it.

  But high above the chasm

 

  and twinkling ethereally
at the Pole Star sits

 

  chaos the Charioteer on her chariot-throne,
redeemer and ruler over all.

  And this is the first password

Have a conversation -- it's as simple as that, he says.

OH! so this is another *key*?
I am pleased with myself.

The key of ANY...

This is the third key...
This process involves interference patterns of quantum physical correlations in our brains.

If the patterns reinforce,
the dream is integrated.
If the patterns interfere,
the pattern is erased.

Either way, we learn to survive.
