I ask,
what is the quantum dimension 
of brain function?
Not that which produces exact replicas 
by symbolic representation 
of the world around 
but is otherwise of itself, 
active and ongoing 
in the most direct ways of immersion 
beyond timeline processes.
The brain channels itself 
as well as providing 
conscious representation. 
I am asking about
a brain, of its own say, 
without beckoning 
from outside influence.
A brain, in a quantum state,
maybe more like 
dream state production 
and then conscious awareness 
but not out of necessity 
to compensate for other outside input 
or for input from other points in time.
The brain, in a quantum state 
of running of itself 
and an awareness of that, 
as its own hum, made conscious. 
The workings of this, as a presence 
but not for an audience 
of consciousness 
waiting for results. 
The ambiance of receivership is 
in motion as if like bees in a hive 
but with no intent 
or search for the honey. 
Just busyness, bustling in hum, 
like a subdued night storm 
in a distant sky 
that only producing streaks of lightning 
both direct and frontal as well as blurbs 
of far away light 
connecting from other parts 
of this brain not readily accessible 
to observable sensing. 
That I would have it in time and space 
is discovered as 
my reductionistic illusion 
and presumption, when in fact, 
the brain in this receivership 
is more than static in location 
but somehow wired up 
to other space and other time 
by a means neither apparent 
nor comprehendible straightforward. 
I am use to only recognizing billboards 
before me and not blurs or wisps, 
or some sorts of electrical blushes 
as part of the ongoing dance 
that is not results oriented 
as I have so come to expect.
Does water in a stream, 
while in the flow of it, 
commune about where it had been 
with other water parts 
who were from somewhere else 
for then? 
I cannot say I came to here prepared 
to be audience 
but I feel ill equipped to be 
except for those kinds of skills 
as my tools for being 
and conditioned to be 
aware of here at all. 
I am putting words through my mouth 
by some automatic convention of habit 
but not sure for what I am saying. 
But this search, 
with what are my senses for now 
is providing is somewhat 
of a lucid dream state account.
I started by focusing on 
what I assumed to be, 
quote, ‘the brain”, 
and am discovering, at best, 
it is just a focal point 
for a much vaster dimensional sense 
than the physical mass would claim. 
It is more like a transducer 
of energetic means that intakes, 
from a wide range of inputs, 
even beyond what senses 
would traditionally provide, 
and somehow churns along 
while we 
as a constant conscious attendee,
receive byproducts 
that we can comfortably handle 
as thoughts styled into summaries 
and judgments, and visions, 
and context, and conclusions, 
and as that which is understood. 
So much beyond any of that is going on, 
either below or beneath or behind 
what we are comfortable embracing.
Can we carbon date familiarity 
in the brain? 
Do we ever have search tools 
without the headlights provided by habit 
or prior knowledge or sensory comfort 
as engagement?
Why is my handshake of awareness 
have to come from a knowing 
for a confidence to occur?
I am here to investigate enormity 
as enormity will embrace the brazenness 
of a me to do so. 
I wander as if soul was my grip 
and innocence is my sight. 
Here, I am meeting all my relatives, 
gravity, space, light, cogitation, locality, 
manifest and
inferences of beyond. 
It seems that what I feel is 
more immersed in all of this 
than mind, 
by my method of consciousness, 
could be in exposure to embrace. 
What was of me as a body of water 
is now aware of the ocean 
that I have misplaced 
but has not misplaced me. 
Humbled by the disconnect, 
but the journey in all ways 
is invisibly connected. 
Words are harder here to say, 
it takes so much away from being 
to conjure, to have a here, 
so boundaried by a sense of certitude 
that is so shallow and over depicted. 
I have nothing really to say 
that you are not already a party to 
within what and whom 
you would call you.
In quantum, there are no names 
to suffice for the oneness field 
unified and always 
in all ways 
in the indiscernible now . . .
