Forks by themselves in space

A fork does not exist all by itself in space. It is in my hand, which is held up by my muscles, in turn held up by my chair, the floor, the ground beneath, and the rock, all by the forces of gravity and muscular action. And even beyond that it is held by my intention and the intention of the metalworker, the designer, the aboriginal who wanted an easier way to hold down the squirming animal she was trying to cut. Webs within webs, wheels within wheels. Nothing alone. All one.
