Leveling Up

So, you’re doing your job
Among the rhopalia
Of world mind, helping mind

And its multiple spies,
All its dozens of eyes,
That brainless jellyfish,

Learn all about the world
It navigates, floating
And flexing in deep space.

Modular, scalable,
If you were examined,
You would reveal yourself

Not only a neuron
Of sorts for the world mind
But with many millions

Of your own, and so on,
But here you’re component
Of something emergent,

And this is your role, sense
And respond, a signal
Summed into the many

World mind learns to average
And back up or speed up
Accordingly. You quiet

Until the next input
Triggers you, no notion
How you help all mind move.
