What remains separated
Boundary
The body maintains.
Or collapses.
A surface defines limits.
Interior does not merge with exterior.
Difference is maintained.
Equalization does not complete.
Gradients exist.
Movement tends to reduce them.
Reduction occurs.
Replenishment attempts to follow.
Replenishment does not fully reach.
Loss continues.
Loss repeats.
Response follows loss.
Response does not eliminate loss.
New deviation appears.
Deviation returns before correction completes.
Correction occurs over instability.
State changes during adjustment.
Adjustment does not reach a fixed state.
Entry occurs.
Entry is not free.
Exit occurs.
Exit does not fully balance.
Passage is allowed.
Passage is interrupted.
Opening does not remain.
Closure is not final.
Alternation occurs continuously.
Alternation does not stabilize the system.
Electrical difference is maintained.
Drop occurs.
Drop does not complete.
Replenishment responds.
Replenishment consumes.
Consumption persists.
Cost accompanies each adjustment.
Adjustment does not reduce cost.
Internal composition varies.
Variation is not eliminated.
Deviation accumulates locally.
Correction does not reach all regions at once.
Correction occurs in regions.
Other regions remain deviated.
Uniformity is not achieved.
Internal difference persists.
Excess forms.
Removal is initiated.
Removal delays.
Excess continues.
Deficiency appears.
Compensation attempts to respond.
Compensation does not match the need.
Imbalance remains.
Volume tends to change.
Expansion meets limit.
Limit resists.
Resistance is not absolute.
Pressure increases.
Relief is not immediate.
Deformation occurs.
Return is partial.
Form does not fully recover.
New deformation arises before recovery.
Contact with the exterior is continuous.
Separation is maintained under contact.
Interaction occurs.
Mixing is contained.
Flow crosses boundaries.
Boundaries restrict flow.
Restriction varies.
Variation alters flow.
Flow modifies state.
State modifies restriction.
Cycle does not end.
Cycle does not stabilize.
Gradient decreases.
Replenishment delays.
Reduction advances.
Containment attempts to respond.
Response does not fully keep pace.
Difference weakens.
Difference does not disappear.
Persistence requires new replenishment.
Replenishment occurs with delay.
Delay allows further reduction.
System operates under delay.
Delay is not eliminated.
Maintenance occurs with imperfection.
Imperfection is not resolved.
Pressure is continuous.
Response is continuous.
Response does not finalize the process.
Process does not converge.
If the surface loses restriction,
difference is not sustained.
Difference decreases.
Replenishment does not respond.
Gradients disappear.
Movement is not directed.
Exchange occurs without containment.
Control does not follow.
Entry occurs without limit.
Exit does not compensate.
Internal composition approaches the exterior.
Intervals cease to exist.
Electrical difference disappears.
Tension does not return.
Consumption does not produce replenishment.
Cost does not generate maintenance.
Correction does not occur.
Deviation finds no response.
Cycle does not restart.
Adjustment does not return.
Accumulation remains.
Removal does not occur.
Deficiency persists.
Compensation does not occur.
Volume changes without containment.
Pressure does not limit.
Deformation remains.
Return does not occur.
Structure does not resist.
Separation does not remain.
Interior ceases to be distinct.
Exterior is no longer excluded.
Life acts as if it has an objective.
But this is not explained.
