MIND, THE FINAL FRONTIER

 

Mind, the final frontier

These are the voyages

of the Mindship Serendipity

with its continuing mission

to explore strange new thoughts

to seek out and discover

new ideas new literature

to boldly create

what no one has created before

 

Do we pretend we’re real

in this delusion of thought?

Search through mind

for answers buried deep

in back reaches of brains 

search out

seek out

realizing no answer

but the question itself

 

We fall back on mind

our own ability to transcend

travel through the realms

of fantasy, recollection,

memory, imagination

it beckons us

 

Mind, the only frontier

 

May 6 and 10, 1993

A nod to Gene and maybe Bill and Pat, too.
