What Are Your Thoughts?

What are your thoughts? Not what are you thinking now, but what are your thoughts literally? I don’t think a thought in the mind is a word or words, although after the fact we can shape them into words to express them, but when you have them, they are these very abstract electrical impulses in the brain, it seems to me. So. in truth, there is an air of mystery about what human thought really is. Not at all clear what a thought produced by a human brain actually is.

Your Mind, Not Your Own

There is no limit to its chatter;
It jumps about like a jack in the box.
In the barely perceptible a constant clatter,
The mind is a wily red fox.

It rambles where it may;
You really don’t have a say.
Round and round and round it goes;
You can’t douse it with a hose.

Count your breaths one, two, three;
It will just shout with glee.
But if you focus on nothing more,
You may show it the door.

Yet, try as you might,
This little devil, a wild horse,
It leaps and creeps and sneaks about,
A primal force.
