Sonnets to Morpheus
XII
Sound bites, news flashes
bits of memory beamed
through time and space
directly into the brain
Lost memories return
dormant neurons triggered
by stray elections as molecules
float across the synapses
Is it nothing more than this?
Are we merely electrochemical
reactions spread across convoluted
tissue, packed into a three pound
universe floating silently
through a briny inland sea?

Yes, we are stardust
mixed in all the right
proportions, with a spark
of je ne sais quoi

I think a love of
aesthetics is one

Yes, we are electrochemical entitities....
Synapse meets synapse
Cell to cell
Your poetry is so good
I want to yell....
But I am just a programmed bunch of cells...

...but cells with random event
algorithms built in, just to
keep things interesting.

Delectably put...we are souls of energy
floating in a chaotic world trying
to find our way...thought provoking
indeed...

What about
hearts and souls
and love and joy?
Do they weigh?
Smart. I like that!

hearts and souls, love and joy
the heaviest of them all
