the temporal lobe intact,
like the visionstem. (celan)

i watched himilaya last night. this high altitude disappearing culture so intense and connected. they live in the world in such a different way. it seems so strange to us, who live so artificially. they meet by rubbing foreheads, just like we do, mister and me. why do people not do that here? it is not our culture, our culture is not disappearing, it is spreading, metastasizing.  
what becomes of our frontal lobes, gone numb, how do we meet the world?
