NeuroRiffs
Sclera is a continuation of the brain's dura mater, and the pupil a hole into the brain. Eyes should serve as the brain's fifth-column inside reality. Alas, they rather act like Quislings, generating reports which are piecemeal, upside-down and substantially confabulated.
The brain is an electrical storm modeled in jello: a fifth-grade science project assembled on the last day of winter break.
Kudos to axons, which sheath themselves not in mink but myelin. Fat: the eco-friendly and sustainable choice.
HERR KEPLER'S NOTEBOOK
Time is the bully anchor of the opposing tug-rope team.
The person with a happy home life tracks glitter through the world; the solitary person leaves snowprints.
-------------------------------------
"The grasshopper warbler's song comes up out of the earth just as you think the day is quietening down. It has no prelude or warm-up: it starts midperformance, as if switched on by the dark, as it if has been singing like this beneath the earth until it was dark enough to come to the surface. As if, though we hardly hear it, this singing never stops."
