Greater than the sum of its parts

from The Exploding Man by The Members of Spacecraft 7

about

Stan the Man is at his best when he is whole.

lyrics

“Eyes, where are you?” / “Over here, two blocks north of you”
“And lips, where are you?” / “At the grocery store picking-up-some food”
“Ears, can you hear me?” / “Yes indeed, we’re above-you-in-the tree”
“Nose, this is your head, can-you-find-your way back?” “Yes, I can”
“That’s excellent, let-us-all convene…

To re-assemble / become whole again
For a head restored is-greater-than-the sum of its parts….
Parts… x 2

Although arguably the head is-the sovereign of / the human body, citadel of the brain
Of sight and smell and hearing as well / yes, it’s quite impressive, this reconstructed head
But still it is not sufficient by itself / to function fully, it needs something else
To find its way back to its body would help / get the blood flowing, oxygen as well
And to act on its commands, it needs arms, legs and hands….

To re-assemble / become whole again
For the body restored is-greater-than-the sum of its parts….
Parts… x 2
