Soul, Spirit, God, Religion, Labyrinth, Metaphors and Minotaurs.

Thesis
The immateriality of reason
can lead us irrationally to
the illusion of our own immateriality
beyond reality.

Metaphorical antithesis
The future has passed its sell-by date
We are just trapped passengers,
ticket-collectors, or firemen
- never engine-drivers -
on ghost-trains of wormy thought…

Synthesis
- Yours imagistically bruised by coal and scorched by fire,
and being nothing getting nowhere in a Yeatsian gyre.
