Flatten directory structure

All content files (*.txt, *.html, *.river) are now in /.
I did this to simplify the compilation step, and to make
linking easier.  I'm still thinking about whether I should
move the contents of js/, img/, and lua/ into /, or into
an 'assets' folder of some sort.  We'll see.

+Say there are no words.  Say that we are conjoined \
+from birth, or better still, say we are myself.  \
+---But I still talk to myself, I build my world \
+through language, so if we say there are [no words][] \
+this is not enough.  Say we are instead some animal, \
+or better yet, [a plant][], or a flagellum motoring \
+aimlessly around.  (Say that humans are the only things \
+that reason.  Say that we're the [only things that worry][].)
+
+Say that I am separate.  To say there's everything else \
+and then there's me is wrong.  Each thing is separate: \
+[there is no whole in the world][].  Say this is both good \
+and bad, or rather, say there is no good or bad but only \
+being, more and more of it always added, none taken out \
+though it can be forgotten.  Say that forgetting \
+is a function of our remembering.  (Say that humans only \
+[worry about separation][].  Say that only humans feel it.)
