In a state of disrepair...

0 posted 2004-05-20 06:32 AM


Welcome all to my most cunning diatribe
woven so calmly and dare I say, blithely:

In the source of its chemical intercourse
the life of a being can be simply seen;

Dopamine unleashed by a seratonin kiss;
an endorphin reaction to counter with bliss.

A simple compound sounds like ringing bells.
Every synapse passes through a billion cells.

Synapses flashing,
receptors engaging
pathways recoiling
adrenaline entwining
alpha waves ordering
chemicals coursing

Through all these things is language born.
The chemical creates the thought.
The thought begets the word
that births the mind:
the mind that penned this diatribe.



"And the sun went down, and the stars came out far over the summer sea,
But never a moment ceased the fight of the one and the fifty-three."

But only God can make a tree.

Near climactic as the words surged...
Captured quite well.

again, I comment on how much power your words hold...addictions are a tool of darkness...understanding them is the way to overcome, and understanding that a Higher power is necessary to help one through.....
ok enough preaching...this is an insightful write..very creative
