More of a rant than poetry...

I am a Strange Loop
 My sense of self is quite distorted
with every shift my perception changes
I can't seem to still my mind
Molecules run amok
Crashing and bashing
They change everything
Yet still I reach the same point
Such tricksters they are
Whom shoves whom?
Where do these ideas come from?
Am I in control or merely a by-product?
Am I my body or is it only a vessel?
How do I even know who I am?
Am I molecules and neurons or something more?
Is my Self directly tied to these firing synapses?
Do physics decide my fate?
Or is it that as long as I stay within the laws of physics,
that any destiny is mine?
Could I possibly equate life?
The laws and rules contain everything
Functioning within them is necessary but rarely noticed.
If I planned each step down to micro scale...
taking every variable into account,
would I then be able to determine an outcome?
Is it even possible to equate all the variables in life?
I don't think so and you can't section and divide life
Particles don't respect any such macroscopic line
We are forced to take it all in
while reducing ourselves to seeing only the larger sides of life
Our minds can only comprehend so much at a time
(to be cont)
No idea where I was going with this...lol
