Shut Up, Brain

Without reason, 

Without thought 

Our species wouldn’t have made it to the Stone Age 

But if you try and think your way to answers about everything

You get trapped in a web of your own design


The only way out is to acknowledge that at end

Thought itself is wondrous and defies explanation 

And though it is a tool 

More vital than anything we make with our hands 

As an essential mode of being human

It comes in (distant?!) second to awe
