Meat Circuits


 Event.
Response.
Equal and opposite
Force.
Authoring flowcharts.
Charting maps.
Planning for the immediate future.
Pondering the universe
Of possibilities.
Attachment is the root of all suffering.
Say it again for the Buddha:
Attachment is the root of all suffering.
That data has been amended 
Into the code.
Attachments are transient.
Loss is inevitable.
One way or the other.
Neither good, nor bad.
Just the facts.
Whatever facts are.
Perception is too subject to
Personal editing.
Do you see what I see?
Or do we all interpret 
The same thing
Differently?
Empirical data matters.
Why it happened,
The intention,
Matters,
Not just
How much it hurt.
Logic vs emotion.
Is logic AND emotion even possible?
It's the goal,
I am told.
Wisdom.
Using one to inform the other,
Rather than fight it.
Rather than trying to kill it.
Rather than going numb.
Rather than breaking down.
Every lesson
Has to be assimilated into the code.
Every experience
Stored on disk.
Somewhere in the jelly,
Meat circuits and fatty acids.
