Testamentally


Most stars are furnaces
  but some are clasps.
One day the sky will open
  like a cloak
to show the circuitry,
  the bits and waves
which architect the days
  that age our destinies.

Our wills (for all your argumentery),
  our wills (except for that)

are free.

(Inspired by the recent debate on mind, behaviorism, free will and
all like that in net.philosophy.)
