The synecdoche of Buffon's New York rendered for figures of action, hypothesizing the manipulation of reality by the god-hands that can create it, Buffon instead lists the minor changes he makes to the banal reality surrounding him, which comes off as tragic. A world that you can create and instead replicating the world around you, the indifference within it, its own heroism.
