As if we were all just standing around in a circle not making eye contact with anyone else while a game of double-dutch proceeded in front of us, in the middle of us all and it was anyone's turn, but we watched the whirling web, waiting for when we should jump in without getting choked or tripped up and falling flat on our faces-stopping the game and being that one that has 'bad timing' and coming to the conclusion that the ones that so seamlessly folded themselves in and out-were pushed-by an outside agent-we would like to think this
survival of the fittest game has no formal rules and subsequently may just work if given enough rope-
it's anyone's game.
