Important Thought Experiment

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

And the moon, the bowl, the dunes…

Google tells me there is an Irish girl group called B*witched

And I’m stymied by the dudes in the front too.

I love that you remembered these guys, but apparently it's meant to be The Wallflowers.

Their not looking alike kept me from that one.

But it’s grapevines on there, not flowers. There are even clusters of grapes. I call bullshit on that one.

I think it’s the Grape Wall Of Wine-a

In a quiet room I can do 3

Are you supposed to be able to visualize different types or something? Does a core count?

What people understand the word visualize to mean is based on how their brain works, close your eyes and try to make yourself “see” it.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

I'm probably a 1. 99% of the time.

[spike]

Oh yeah, probably a 5. Most people are, it’s why porn is so popular.

I made a thread about this recently. I think most people can see images in their head.

[JuanHamm]

I'm also a 5.

[BurtReynolds]

No surprise many will fail the npc test.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

“Close your eyes and imagine an apple” is far different than someone just saying the word apple and asking people if hearing the word created an image in their mind. The latter doesn’t always for me, but the former pretty much always will

[BurtReynolds]

But can you visualizers (real people) now rotate the apple? Can you glide across its surface? Explore it from different points of view?

I hope you are practicing your shape rotations. You don't want to degenerate into a wordcel.

Hawks and rats. The 50 hawks can blind the other 45 animals/hunter, and then the hawks and rats keep the blind animals busy for an hour.
