That Lonely Brain


If Spock could have thought even when his brain was missing. During the episode Spock's Brain.

A disjointed feeling. A feeling that something is missing. More than something, more like everything.

What an illogical feeling! That a brain could be detached from a body, and yet still be functioning. Still be thinking.

Because I now know. The only logical explanation is the loss of my body.

There is no out of body experience. No watching myself as McCoy works hurriedly to restore me. I have no contact with the universe outside of my head.

And what if they can't heal me? Could I cope with being a series of thoughts for eternity?

Kirk, please save me.
