The mind points out it’s own precision 
The pen tip presses upon the page 
The blank sheets are washed and dried 
as bleeding crimes in tangled lines
Are hung to dry with dripping rage

The mind draws lines with its own decisions
The desperate drama of dreams debate
The Carpet rolls out the curtains rise
The Callosum opens its Myelin eyes
As actors weave axioms upon the stage 

The mind circles round its own confusion 
The neural nodes nap within the cage 
The fasciculus finds and hooks the hive 
The fissure formed from space and time
Is stitched to heal with macrophage….

….the ritual bell, the wafting smell of 
Burning sages in prizm cells, 
Hanging from the dangling nous,
The heart bares scars from tearing youth
From the of searing truth of heaven and hell…
