CIRCULAR PITCH

-The distance from one face of a tooth to the corresponding face of an adjacent tooth on the same gear, measured along the pitch circle.

Ambiguously, it is the movement of a single step taken along the walk of life, the most basic turn of the gears, so to speak. It is a simple action which can drastically alter the greater machine of perception or it is an unremarkable feature toiling behind the veil of surface reality and the machinations of the life. The gears and cogs may form the Wheel of Fortune, but it rolls by with incremental, normally infinitesimal ticks along the circular pitch, effecting greater mechanical alteration than it is aware of.
