Many worlds, many paths
– probabilities cast into being.
Multiple selves waiting to be observed
– fixed by our inner gaze.
The mystery of entanglement
– an image of what we might be
emerging from the shadow of what we were.

Consciousness first
Would we know that consciousness exists
without being conscious first?
Come to think of it
would we know that anything exists
– including thought?
Therefore, why believe
that neural operations in the brain
somehow gauge its reality
by being different
and indifferent?

Discovery
Did nature give us a brain
to gain a mind in return?
So who’s the proud owner?
Does the brain tell us what to do
– organising our actions and decisions
formulating our ideas, concepts, and reasons
– the engine of thinking, knowing and memory
orientating scientific understandings
in the ‘neurological mind’
in order to discover
what it is doing?
