So last winter my family and I went to a play at Portland Center Stage called R. Buckminster Fuller: The HISTORY (and MYSTERY) of the Universe, and I LOVED IT. It wasn't necessarily a play, more like a one man show and he just went into all this stuff about this dude. Just as a child he was so interesting and just everything he thought about blows me away, so I chose a poem that he wrote...
Cosmic Plurality
by R. Buckminster Fuller
Environment to each must be
All there is, that isn't me.
Universe in turn must be
All that isn't me AND ME.
Since I only see inside of me
What brain imagines outside me,
It seems to be you may be me.
If that is so, there's only we.
Me and we, too
Which love makes three,
Universe
Perme-embracing
It-Them-You-and-We.
Wow, this guy is a thinker. I like the line, What brain imagines outside me. What visuals do you get when you see that?
