Theory of God
L I. Of Circuits and Litanies Somewhere between the limbic lobe and the ache of late-night Eucharist, you touched me— not in flesh but in the soft mutiny of neurons. They do not teach us that synapses pray in the tongue of longing, that oxytocin sings psalms in dim-lit corridors of the amygdala. Love is not a metaphor. It is a switch, a slow-burning heresy of selfhood dissolved in the damp...

What Einstein saw in his drowsy brain would’ve driven any normal person insane. He saw God with a face to be feared, yelling, "I already told you, e equals mc squared! Albert! How many times do I have to explain!"...

I asked my conservatively dressed Sabbath Teacher, Who do you think Jesus would vote for? As was her way even today she had her querulous say, What would Jesus do? He would ask, and so could all of you, Is this a loving kind thing to do or not do? Is this a loving caring relationship to continue, to widen and deepen, to feed health, to succeed safe natural beauty EarthCommon Creation wealth? I...

Premium Member An Alternate Theory on Black Holes
A poem which shows the value of poetry to letting the mind run free. There's an outline around the unseeable—the temptation to lick it, knowing it's like the inside of the freezer wall. The lure, being the spilled ice lolly looking flavoursome, is insane. You wouldn't do it twice, nor would you have the opportunity. So resist—that's...
