The elegance of the human brain,
with its billons of cells,
and complex networks.
Its marvelous connections.
Pretty colors glow against
the black backdrop of an MRI scan.
Red is where emotions are located.
Blue is where language is formed.
We even see a ‘God region’ of the brain.
Is there a doubt region?
What color is it?
No matter.
They haven’t yet discovered the colors
that would illuminate the brain
fully alive in revelation.
It would break the machine.
When we touch your nail pierced hands,
we touch our own failure.
But our failure is yours.
It finds home in your pierced hands and side,
and is transformed in broken glory.
Stop trying so hard to believe.
You can't make it happen.
Step out of your stuffy locked room,
and breathe in the fullness of resurrected life.
