Carl! Thanks! Does my discussion above help at all re: how nothingness relates to the layer of meaning we impose upon things? I see the whole discussion as related, and thus I actually changed "mind" to "brain" to suggest that human being is determined physically (mind is a function of neural chains), whereas I worry that "mind" suggests too much of "soul," animism, the idea of a thinking psyche outside of gray matter that I guess is Kantean or Cartesian, though I have not dug into them enough to say clearly--I am just an interested amateur.

Glad you liked the random, semi-surreal images. I was trying to suggest the difficulty of meaning making in part by making them hard to instantly translate into concepts/abstractions.

I'll think about lie/lies. Hmnn. I could also change the butterflies half of the rhyme.

Thanks, Tony
