Brains and Eyes
A brain is a search engine
seeking itself.
It has glass eyes
to look upon a world it makes and remakes
this phenomenon is often called: thinking,
but it's not as simple as thoughts
it has got good seeds and bad seeds
and it plants them into its host body
like landmines.
People
(that’s what we call everyone else
with softly ticking brains),
People
want answers
but all the brains in the world,
only know how to feed
the shrinking flesh,
and their glass eyes
are easily dazzled by light.
