Welcome to Week Fourteen of Three Line Tales.

Shadowy concepts,
Brilliant intuitive thoughts.
Bicameral mind.

Thank you to Sonya of Only 100 Words for coming up with Three Line Tales.
The TLT rules are simple:
- Take a look at the photo prompt and write three lines to go with it.
- Your lines can be poetry, micro-fiction, micro non-fiction or just a really long caption – everything goes as long as it’s three lines long.
- A link back to this post would be nice (it’ll make me feel obliged to swing by yours to read your three lines, and some of your readers might want to join in, too – the more, the merrier, right?).
- Tag your post with 3LineTales – it’ll make it easier for others to find it in the Reader.
- Read other participants’ lines.
Please check Sonya’s post Three Line Tales Detailed Instructions for the full explanation.
Hope you enjoyed this
Cool! It could be a haiku too! Have a great day, Frank. 💖 Blessings.
Thank you very much, Debbie! I think the 5/7/5 squeaks it in as a haiku 🙂
Have a wonderful day!
Frank
Me too Frank! <3
Brilliant three liner and I love it!
Thank you so much! I wanted to put a little extra in this one 🙂
Oh, this is a great one, Frank! the contradictory nature of the mind 🙂
Thank you, Sonya!
Indeed the mind has a double sided nature.
Yes indeed…and for some it can be truly disconnected. It’s my little nod to Julian Jaynes 🙂
Ahh! Thanks for the introoduction, never heard of him before.
Glad to make the introduction! Julian Jaynes wrote a rather controversial book, titled “The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind”. It’s an interesting read with a rather unusual hypothesis that was later found to be rather unlikely from a biological perspective.
Thank you.
Hopefully I get to read his work soon.
‘Bicameral Mind’ – Divine
Thank you!! An unconscious thought 🙂
Sometimes those are the brilliant bubbles that make their way to the surface 😉
Well put!
😉
For a moment I thought you meant bipolar. Great take on the theme.
Thank you! The breakdown of the bicameral mind (i.e. the establishment of connectivity between both brain halves) was proposed as a starting point for the development of consciousness in the theory of Julian Jaynes. It’s one of my favorite ‘out there’ books to read. 🙂
Thanks for the explanation. Really appreciate.
