I feel therefore I Am…

sensation is our circumference 

Ouroboros continuum of pleasure pain and all those around

in libido’s valley garden...the universe is a circle.

[Betty Hermelee]

Feeling is all around us, thus we are in a circle of feelings, different feelings; some painful, some pleasurable; they keep changing along with our mood; and if we can feel, then we are…

YES...and that sentience around us, over our time, shapes us, shapes our neuro pathways, emotional and thought loops, the story of reality we tell ourselves...

[jacob erin-cilberto]

even a broken circle can be repaired...spliced,
as can a spliced heart,
I prefer "I am" to "I am not"
pain is being alive...and without that, would we really know the
feeling of pleasure?

excellent piece,
j.

yes!..thank you for the ping of recognition...life is a continuous slicing, splicing grafting...sweet fruit leaves penetrating bitter roots...blossoming orchards in springs...

Your first line gets a bunch of kudos becuz of a sassy snark on the original saying ("I think, therefore I am"). All those high-falutin' thinkers sit around on their thinking thrones (toilets) thinking about what they want to do in the physical realm. Let's face it, humans are so animalistic but we act so high & mighty, that's why this poem hits a note of satisfaction for me. I'm still undecided about the last phrase . . . but I love the harmony with line 2: sensation is our circumference & the universe is a circle . . . tight & expressive thinking (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

thank you...but it is poorly tooled in my eyes...i am improvisational...i love the splatter on my pages...always anguished with honing, cropping and nailing to the wall...now i just throw at the wall...im enjoying writing about others' poems here.
