Erector Set Made Sentient
Human connection, that which CS Lewis called a "taste for the other." It can be a double-edged blade. It can be a sweet wine or the bitterest of cups.
People connect like the scattered pieces of an erector set or a can of tinker toys. The problem is when you get to know people better you also get to know their problems as well.
The Bible says we were made in God's image. That may have held true at first but now the image is faded, the masterpiece mutilated. What chewed up and spit out messes we've become. Visceral in nature damaged in mind. The erector set has given form to something both beautiful and @&÷ up we call human connection.
