as termites is beyond
my comprehension.
They begin their life
as wingless insects
and are an extended
organism
as an alternative
to an extended
phenotype
a composite of an
organism's observable
characteristics.
The entire mound
insects
plus
their structure
is a living entity.
A self-regulating
physiological and
cognitive system
with a sense
of its own boundaries
a memory
and a collective
intentionality.
In other words
they are way ahead
of the manner I think
of myself
being for most of my life
a haphazard
flow with the flow being.
Oh! Too much wind.
