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.

18 | He builds a ship as if it were the last thing \ | ||
19 | holding him together, as if, when he stops, \ | ||
20 | his body will fall onto the plate-glass water \ | ||
21 | and shatter into sand. To keep his morale up \ | ||
22 | he whistles and sings, but the wind whistles [louder][] \ | ||
23 | and taunts him: Your ship will build itself \ | ||
24 | if you throw yourself into the sea; time \ | ||
25 | has a way of growing your beard for you. \ | ||
26 | Soon, you'll find yourself on a rocking chair \ | ||
27 | on some porch made from your ship's timbers. \ | ||
28 | The window behind you is made from a sail, thick \ | ||
29 | canvas, and no one inside will hear your calling \ | ||
30 | for milk or a chamberpot. Your children \ | ||
31 | will have all sailed to the New World and left you. \ | ||
32 | But he tries not to listen, continues to hammer \ | ||
33 | nail after nail into timber after timber, \ | ||
34 | but the wind [finally blows][] him into the growling ocean \ | ||
35 | and the ship falls apart on its own. | ||
