You've got me thinking of the word "COMPASS", and of all the ways it registers. Like the first time I used it as a device (because you know what Goethe said about all things transitory)— —It was the dawning of a new centripetal system within me, and I can still feel the relief as it surged over my skin staring up at my 'mental mechanic' in awe and gratitude and wonder at how any of this was possible. "You mean, my body will instantly reflect the intuitive awareness of what will and will not nourish me?" (...they are mere metaphor.)
