A Complex Weather Pattern...

We sometimes think of our bodies as machines, and our brains as computers...

I believe this is off the mark.

Our bodies, brains included are like:

a river
a willow tree
an amazonian rain forest
an ocean
a cloud
a storm
a hurricane
a tornado
a tsunami
a herd of buffalo
an ant colony
a beehive
a pack of wolves
a gaggle of geese
a complex weather pattern
a galaxy
a symphony 

you know, an evolving life-form
a war-zone

a confederacy of systems
all working together 

we are complicated
resilient, and a bit fragile too

life, it's an amazing state 
a moving target
always morphing 
and changing
growing, dying
replicating

we can try to sum it up
but really, it's all beyond us

mystery bounded by mystery
