I am a student of the arts and sciences, studying philosophy, conciousness, neuroscience, physiology, and emergency medicine. But more importantly, I am a student of myself, and of the human race-- This is important
I am a poet, I am in Love, I acknowledge my existence with peaceful reflection I am active...I am not passive...
My true fascination lies with the scientific inquiry into the existence of conciousness, and its implications with regards to religion, philosophy, and medicine.
Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend - or a meaningful day.

If I May Have It by Emily Dickinson

If I may have it when its dead
I will contented be;
If just as soon as breath is out
It shall belong to me,

Until they lock it in the grave,
?Tis bliss I cannot weigh,
For though they lock thee in the grave,
Myself can hold the key.

Think of it, lover! I and thee
Permitted face to face to be;
After a life, a death we?ll say, -
For death was that, but this is thee.

I Dunno

A tickled texture touched me twice,The softest sense, and seeming nice.With quick despair - with timeless tweed,Sickness - Something - Likeness breeds.Short and stout and half composed,I walk with cri...

For I will pass in the presence of these men,With the weight of the world on my back,I will pass silently into my grave.I will have loved.And those that have come before me lie in honor of my sterling...

words

What is must be,If now is true.What can be free,Will soon be too.And time has been our greatest sage,If words have cost us-rights and wage,Than guns will soon recant Your rage-Will be the end of thing...

We must not propose ourselves as a sovereign entity...

The unified fabric of the physical universe and that of true conciousness are ubiquitous around us, yet many of us ignore it. The individual realities that each of us creates for ourselves may be dist...
