John C. Lilly made sense, without senses, 'ya know

just the dudes hanging out being dudes

fire and what is conscious

tiny conduits of self

of emotion

of ourselves

then become aware

aware that you're aware

aware of awareness

a way less visible

yet the path is viable

yet indifferent  

creatures more ancient than this self
sentient yet unrecognized
sovereign yet entangled
chemical ladders to the window of electricity
nodes in a pattern of function

what is conscious expands
and retracts
hidden entities now apparent
a veil lifted from the always present
the always
the absolute now
