Palms, grasslands and termite mounds in La Gran Sabana, Guyana Highlands, Venezuela: photo by Poco a poco, 15 November 2007
Twin huge basaltic massifs float in thin air misted with drifting wisps of cloud above the sprawling floor of the world;
beneath, in unseen subterranean passages of the Great Savanna, a vast unpunctuated sentence in the form of indecipherable code,
an encyclopedia of the scattered colonies' decentralised, self-organised swarm-intelligence structures
was once said to have been found, fixed as stick-images upon the walls of detritus systematically distributed all through the subterranean mazes of principal tunnels,
secondary byways, factory burrows and burial warrens; this code remains now forever hidden from all devices of analysis, thus illegibly memorialising
in complicated and mysterious numerologies the lost civilization-histories and microbial-community orders of long-since-dispersed dynasties of pre-neuronic beings
that may have once occupied these numberless abandoned surface termite mounds.
