There is no single body here.

Only decisions.

Each hand proposes a direction.
None are agreed upon.

The face remains,
not as a leader,
but as the last place consequence gathers.

Fingers count, hold, split, repeat.
They do not coordinate.

They accumulate.

The system does not fail.

It overfunctions.

Every action occurs at once,
until intention becomes indistinguishable
from noise.

The figure does not act.

It is acted through.

And somewhere inside the density,
a single gesture tries to mean something.

It is not given priority.
