How enlightened is bread?

Bread that I eat, that I have eaten every day.

Does bread come to a kind of enlightenment when I use it as fuel? Is bread still bread after it has become energy?

What am I if I am not the foods I eat?

The bread, the fruit, the water, the meat.

My body is then made of the earth.

Is my mind of the sky?

Bread is not enlightened or not enlightened.

Who are you there, next to the nose, under the fluttering eyelid?

Are you the eyeball, can you see or is there nothing to see?

I am awake, but I do not exist, nor am I large or tiny.

I have never seen myself, how do I know if I can see?

A hammered flat katydid rests dead upon the steeple.

ahhh...hahahaha

    Nic, I would love to see what you're really like in person. You're a good kid, but a guy your age should be thinking about girls and sports. Not whether bread is enlightened. I must say you are an individual.

    Well, Katy done did something...LOL...A cowbell for this...why would I think otherwise? Virgil is close on this one, but the Katy comment made me think you met her already and, there is a Blues Brothers song written by Delbert McClinton called "She Caught the Katy" Its way too cool.

    I didn't mean to go on about bread as much as I did, Virgil. Too much of one thing is never good. I prefer to focus on other things other than bread! Right now I am eating yogurt. And sports-- you may say it is not a sport, but I study the sport of chess a lot! Well, sometimes. Right now I'm studying the I Ching, which I swear gives me a huge advantage in chess Okay I will, B! This one is for you: [url]http://youtube.com/watch?v=pnD1ME5WjqI[/url] And Virgil, my girlfriend's name is Kaylee. She has an account on here but she doesn't use it.

    Haha, I would love to meet you in person, too, B! I live in Missouri and you live in...where? Louisiana? Or farther North? I love traveling so I'd be able to come see you-- it's up to you. I wouldn't be able to leave for at least two months or three. And Virgil, you have to make time!!

    Nik, I kinda liked the thought processes there.... cool. B-Mental and Virgil are correctamundo -- you would be a cool person in real life. But for now, I will settle for your musings here at LitNet. Rock on, Nik!
