                <p>Pinocchio escapes Samsara by giving up humanity. Except Pinocchio is a tenth stanza Odist and Geppetto is a seventh stanza Odist and the blue fairy is Dry Grass.</p>
<h2 id="notes">Notes</h2>
<p>A version of Pinocchio told sys-side in reverse: someone unhappy with humanity endeavoring to lose it, goes through all the plot-beats in reverse order.</p>
<p>Question: how heavy-handed should it be? Should it be very little? Someone naming themselves Occhioni P.? Trying to turn themselves into a literal puppet? Designing sims to include the big fish? Finding their Geppetto (G from Oteppe, Belgium) who unmakes them, and then a blue fairy, a sympathetic systech kicks them into quitting? Or they turn into a tree? Told as a fairy tale? Quote the first lines of the original?</p>

<p>“A king?” my little readers will immediately say.</p>
<p>No, children, you are mistaken. Once upon a time there was a piece of wood. It was not fine wood, but a simple piece of wood from the wood yard,—the kind we put in the stoves and fireplaces so as to make a fire and heat the rooms. </p>

<div class="verse">And am I born to die?
To lay this body down?
And must my trembling spirit fly
Into a world unknown?
A land of deepest shade,
unpierced by human thought,
The dreary regions of the dead,
Where all things are forgot?

Soon as from earth I go,
What will become of me?

— Charles Wesley, 1763</div>
