This song is a prayer to the senses for forgiveness. A confession to the body gods that not all thinking has been critical. Not all conclusions based on logic. The spirituality of the scientific method, the clinical rituals and calculated risks, controlled studies and epistemic evidence, is often too daunting, too fanatical to maintain. The extremist calm, the reasoned zealots speak with certainty that nothing promising is a promise, that nothing solved is true. Forgive me, logic, for ever thinking everything was possible, for ever thinking anything was done. Life is work and work is long but both will soon be done in time. [TEEN on myspace]
