This boy had a real penchant for experiences alright. He liked to experiment with his consciousness through the external realm of the world.
The stimulation offered by the external world was like a machine gun to his senses. It wasn’t just an overload of sights and sounds, it was emotion – pure emotion – confusion, loudness, compassion, hurt, pain, suffering, any number of this things in the span of the moment.
That’s what this was alright – the crutch of the moment.
This was the boy at his most primal. Like an animal battling within its natural habitat of survival.
This was a game that was an outcome of itself.
In the trenches, the adrenaline of diving in headfirst.
His eyes are starin’ and his brain a’foamin’.
Make no mistake this boy had takin’ a bruisin’ and he had the marks to prove it.
An inner war, between fear and love, between the mind and the heart and between the left and right hemispheres of the brain. Dark vs light – thoughts vs emotion. We need this working all for the one system; we need to work together on this. We’re only different parts of the one organism.
The excitement of never doing what was going to happen next – an audience of one in the reality show of his mind.
Not knowing how the moment will play out, like a motorbike the speed is picking up and the heart is thundering.
