“There is motion and static. Action and its object. The speed, mass, and length of a wave. Names are building blocks of creation. Verb is a command to build, a will in its purest form. An impulse. Concentrated action. Verb can pull a name out of nonexistence, and it can send it into nonexistence by a single command. All the verbs I’ve ever known were egocentric, narcissistic, and meant to succeed. Geared toward creation at any cost.”
