30.

Dissociation.

            No I don’t mean like isolating yourself from society. When an ionic compound is placed in water, aqueous solution the ions dissociate so that an electric charge of sorts can easily pass through the mobile ions. It’s the same as a bunch of new people in a new room, separated from themselves, almost. Can be who they want to be. Compulsive liar’s bliss. An electric charge can change everything, move everyone back into their place. Reveal truth. Court cases are like that. 12 jurors, no connection but the charge of justice, hope, truth. Justice for the defense, hope that there is justice and truth in this world, that’s the charge. It’s hot and stingy and fuels people like nothing else.

            Like a common cause during a storm. When survival kicks in. When it matters.

            Electricity.
