REFINING CONSCIOUSNESS

REFINING CONSCIOUSNESS

The time has long gone since consciousness woke
Some do say that it is unique to the human mind
For some it always appears as mirrors and smoke

The sharpest brain is sometimes quite hard to find
For them, study and mental exercises might work
And for all the rest, they have just left it unrefined

But with brain exercises, one should not go berserk
An ability for thinking straight is often quite enough
Otherwise, one just embraces all that mist and murk

So, no more of all that dry academic research stuff
There are many brains still collecting dust and fluff
