Everyone with a younger sibling eventually discovers (becomes aware of the fact) they actually have a brain. I’m not exactly sure when this happened with Sean and me. | |
I do remember at some point late in our teens, Sean and I sat and talked about the world and I discovered he was a Conspiracy Theorist. In fact, he was the first conspiracy theorist I ever met and back then, I didn’t even have a name for it. | |
Anyway, his explanation for the world (as he saw it – and still sees it) was so RATIONAL, it stunned me. I felt like Saul on the road to Damascus! | |
So, what else does an introverted young nerd do but write a poem about the experience… This (“The Genius Shook“) was my homage to my “little” brother. | |
Later, Sean continued to rock my world by introducing me to Gil Scott-Heron and “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised“. Who would have guessed, it wasn’t televised because it would be YouTubed instead (on demand). | |
Enjoy! | |
