Biological Juxtaposition
The brain is comparable to a cannon.
 Rapid-fire impulses
 Catapulting,
 Through time and space,
 To another world,
 One world,
 Another,
 Distant,
 Uniquely inviting.
 
 A place where passion ignites
 Whilst brushing against
 The flame of insanity's peak—
 The tender volcanic master
 Of our every existence.
 
 Involuntary meets voluntary.
 It's where lucidity
 Overpowers such nonconformity:
 That of others,
 That of ignorance,
 That of fearful longing,
 That of change.
 
 We strive to describe
 The perplexity
 Of classically-forlorn love
 And of other semi-chaotic occurrences,
 The ones identified as dreams,
 But to no such avail—
 As pathetically transcribed
 As that of solid emotional reasoning.
 
 The brain allows us to indulge
 In pleasure and triumph,
 To be cradled by everlasting glory,
 And be maintained by implausible heroism.
 Alas, what proof is there in mentality?
 What proof justifies cranial wealth as validity?
 Nothing such can do
 With the exception of a singular opinion,
 Likely biased, at that.
 
 The brain allows negativity to coexist
 By letting sensory organs
 Play Hermes to neurons and axon receptors,
 Allowing imperfections
 To the seasonal storm,
 Accepted as false actuality
 And aroused by wishful thinking.
 
 The brain,
 The moderator,
 The gap between dark and light.
