Weekly Haiku


Outdoor Cat

Warily staring
From within a dense thicket
She toys with her prey

By the way, I remember you once said you did not understand my comment re: consciousness was an emergent property of the system.

As a few of us are exploring consciousness in the Saloon, I'd love to have you join if you are at all interested, particularly as I know you are interested in networks/complex systems and I am personally tend to come at consciousness from this angle. You'd have to jump back and read a few of the earlier posts but I thought I'd make the invite in case your interested.

Anyway, be well

Thanks, Thai. I will come over and try to add something worthwhile.

Thai invited you to join us to sodomize flies on your... POETRY post, Edwardo ??
No comment...
See last post for the, uh, context of sodomizing flies.
In all fairness, it is NOT JUST my idea, sodomizing flies. It comes from the French language.

How about...
Cats with catnip ?
I have seen cats under the influence of catnip, and they look like they are having a mystical experience...

Regarding his choice of venue to extend the invitation, Thai, like The Lord, moves in mysterious ways.

Cats on catnip behave a bit frenzied in my experience. I always think of a mystical experience as one where the body doesn't move about much because the mind is transfixed on the otherworldly. But who knows, maybe catnip is a portal to another world, so to speak.
