"The brain

A caustic lump
Of chemicals dumped
Into a sack of fat
In the head," I spat

"I prefer the mind
See,
To unwind it is
Much harder than
The brain

To find the mind
Is to lean on air
Take that dare
And show me your role
The mind is the soul"

But inside I cried
Because sometimes my brain
Interferes with my mind.

Ignorance and fear:
If imbibed as sustenance,
A bitter poison.

Renaissance Man

Samson was a man of mead,
Muscle, and dread,
In word and deed
Who would open his mouth
And fill a need.

Coarse like the hair
That grew on his arms
Fire and grace
Magnificent charm
And above all
Would do no harm.

His wisdom was free
Like his cleverness, compelled
By the fools who would challenge
Expecting him felled

How amusing
By his choosing
His words
Were his conquerers
Made appear
Absurd.

The Science of Sex

Love and sex.

Let me talk about the Heisenberg uncertainty principle for a moment.

Heh, not.

Love and sex.

Sure, you can separate the two. Love without sex is platonic – sex without love is demonic, and if you’re really desperate you’ll end up histrionic. Heh.

Love and sex.

They belong with each other. They resonate on the same frequency. Sure you can pull them apart, like turning water into hydrogen and oxygen. Just don’t light a match in blind passion, because if you do...

The whole thing will blow up in your face.

Sound Familiar?

“In the Kali Yuga people achieve noble rank in society based on the amount of money and property they own rather than their moral virtue. The quality of virtue is measured only in terms of material wealth. Sexual passion alone binds husband and wife together in marriage. People become successful in life through a succession of lies, and their only source of enjoyment is sex. They live with continuous fear of hunger, disease, and death.”
