a drop of vantablack ink suspended on an earth of bright blue water.

the politics of tight water-molecule bonds abhor every proton, nucleus & electron, of every black atom.

vantablack ink can never bond with water; the earth remains blue.

slowly, the scheming brilliance shines through:

vantablack ink cannot spread any more.

vantablack ink is dissolving.

vantablack ink is no more.

from the next minute to the last second of holy demolition, a zillion blue children learn the ways of the water.

vantablack ink is never mentioned; vantablack ink was never there.
