but of course, the three families of a continent, and many aunts and uncles and distant relations, as if to say: but in the flood of swarm whether by twirling zephyrs or foaming seas, whether certain inaudible sounds of the seen things, hinging with a creak or a squeak as a condensed copper, whether it was man who's history was bound by a envious hunger for the alchemical crown, from rotting in oxidation iron, to mandible copper, then through to the metalloid age of silicon - to the stiff-winged birds of aluminium and elsewhere still the blood metal desires: the blood metal of ****** piracy, ransom, or necessary imitation and all kinds of fraud - if to mesmerise the human eye and turn the human heart into a magpie's, if not kept in check by the voluntary beggars of appearance, as those great buddhas of the renaissance, under borgias or a sixtus or a julius; *'he who desires to possess the earth,        let claim by only sitting in silence.'*                                                       (adam mickiewicz)
