a crowd of things that decided loneliness was for amateurs.
means a group of similar things gathered closely together, whether stars, grapes, errors, or people.
from From Old English 'clyster,' a bunch or cluster, likely related to 'clot' — both built on a Germanic root suggesting things sticking and lumping together. So the word itself was born clinging to its neighbors, which is rather on the nose.
