irresistible

 from the needle's eye by fanny howe

"degenerating matter is as alive as young matter, even feistier sometimes, for life fights for life. the stony planets are vibrating as are the chips and bones and ashes on this flying rock. but is that really living? only if empathy is pulling them around like gravity: an irresistible attachment to each other's fate." (56)
