Engrams

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Dec 07, 2017 

They came
from within.
Predetermined
embryos, coded,
inserted, born.
Grew to the
world they
now inhabit.
Learning 
at the
granular level.
Observed,
information 
stored for
future study.
Years pass,
totally 
Integrated.
Programming 
kicks in.
Passing ideas,
written ideas,
spoken ideas.
Passing 
at the
 speed of
light around
the globe
searching.
Searching 
for a
favorable 
engram
to light,
take root,
then
grow and
spread.
Butterfly effect.
It happened 
from
within.
