Get below the level of thought. What in you hears the thoughts you think? What is the vessel that holds them?

I have been spending my entire life trying to get to the level of thought in the first place. I am a simple man. An I/O card, really. I am a weaponized ape. If I don't have an enemy, I don't actually exist.
The Lakota said that you are judged by the strength of your enemies, and who am I to argue with 4000 years of hunter-gatherers that had all the best enemies?
They also said "the center cannot hold," which was dead nuts on the money, if you just take a look around.
Wait. That last one was Yeats. Still true, though.
