Thinking about Thought
My mind is mine.
Minors are miners?
I share my mind. I speak my mind. I write my mind.
Thought goes unheard.
A “sound mind" is like what the speed-readers call subvocalization (?)
There are telepathic voices, auditory hallucinations, for the "spiritually open"
like shared, corporate, borg minds - or different stations, networks
Unless the noise annoys !
I don’t want to hear yours, and I don’t want others trying get inside mine.
Digging around, in there, unearthing nuggets.
Pray without ceasing? That’s crazy.
Unless all thought is a prayer.
Our relationship and communication with God, Natural. What it is.
Drown out the thought with headphones.
Replace the automatic internal flow with music, tv, reading.
I hate commercials. TV is manipulative, stupid, and infuriating.
Heaven is a kind of library.
I like dreams. Customized TV, from God to me.
Some people stay on one channel. Others surf everything.
The rain in my brain, the stream of consciousness
don't be a drip, she said, so I gushed
ice-breakers, making a splash
babbling brook, washing on your shore
do we need our brains to be so Interactive?
Medic Kate thing, and of course, Flo
