I Tire When I Wake

Neuroscience is here. Now, as you read through the piece, whatever year may be, consider the poetry in my child's ignorance and make beliefs. It's as if every connection snapped when my brain said goodbye. Daily, nightly doses of elsewhere; wherever the great wave takes me. Are there new channels I could frequent to cross the dementias divide of our biologies? Shall we grow into Earth to be songs of gods and plunder of sinners? In entropy's defense, I am not their age of warrior; I am not this kind of *human; sabotaging evolution is not my game. Of drones, these thoughtless Things, they've not this network; these tendrils sapients have made, They snap when we sleep.
