What is Mind? No matter. What is Matter? Never mind.
–Bishop BerkleyA Meating of Mind
Jim CullenyIf my brain
does not tell my arm what to do
nothing much will happen.
Without a brain my arm is
not much smarter than
a leg of lambIn fact, meat
without mind
is never going to get
much done, while
mind without meat
wouldn’t have any
point in space/timebut when they mate
-when Mind and Meat meet,
when they kiss and make love
things fecund soon become
and run the gamut from
dumb-and-dumber
right on up to the sublime:
from Rush Limbaugh to
Albert EinsteinIt’s just the way it is with
sentient being:
Mind needs Meat
to do its work
and Meat needs Mind to
have the inclination to do
anythingbut Mind-meets-Meat
is a crap shootsometimes it’s a match made in heaven
sometimes it’s a hell of a thing///
