Fast Felt

The Hush Halo: Systoics - Part One (S130)

Fast Felt

A fast delivery of
ready-to-believe,
wonder-free reality
arrived first.

One tap.
Pre-packed.
Door-dashed.
Pre-chewed.

Impatiently,
without waiting
for an alternative, 
you swallowed it whole.

Fast-feel
became the norm.

CONTEXT
After the Great Optimisation a privileged group of people wired themselves tightly into the system by aligning with it and fully integrating. Systoics believe they’ve perfected themselves by stripping away everything that slows them down.
