Mind


Hidden in neural synapses. Experience never lapses. Limitlessly running wild. Beautiful working brainchild. Contains all and nothing. Oh what the mind can bring! Nature’s clockwork doll. Yet somehow not at all. A will that’s all it’s own. The power to smile or frown. A muscle contracts with thought. The conscious movement is sought. Elegant resulting contortions. All in perfect proportions. Capacity for great achievement. Anticipating the next event. Something to map not see. Pathways of things to be. The thoughts remain blind. Endless things to find. Digging ever deeper. An imaginative sleeper. Dreams more glorious than life. A strange sort of strife. Forgetfulness bringing relief. It depends upon belief. Theories abound everywhere. Nobody is yet there. Many parts all connected. Every last inch is affected. The mystery may never be solved. The whole human race is involved.
