what if there is some piece of our own body,
some mutated cell, or bundle of neurons,
that knows a little something, and has the desire to communicate

some days Jack Kerouac,
if you want to stay alive
you gotta like the lows
you gotta hate the highs.
on days like these
there's no one by your side

a city of love and...

The Conservative Scientific Mind
If something defies
common sense and
probably can never really be verified
experimentally, or mathematically,
one has a responsibility
to behave as if it couldn't exist.
For example: the gaia hypothesis, string theory, or dreamtime.
A well-bred and conservative scientific mind doesn't like them because...
If it can't be irrefutably proved then even if its true, why bother thinking about it,...
