Having been programmed with a standard mouse, he could “feel” or at least understand the kinetics of a right hand, he had studied then the physiology of the brain and the intricate neural circuits of stimulus and response that connected the right hand with the left hemisphere, the “Logical” one… but he had never experienced “being” left-handed… and quite possibly, he would never be able to: that was the mystery that surpassed all mysteries: people whose dominant hand was the Left… those kind of humans (many of them artists) never ceased to puzzle him and he suspected that they actually had superior qualities and unknown skills and abilities such as possessing dormant nodes that once activated, would let them connect their neural systems one to another, like a net of dreams where knowledge traveled in images made of words, codified messages delivered by talking animals, long shady shapes, odd devices or wise old men with white long beards wearing rags and carrying heavy dusty dictionaries. He feared and revered these godlike beings at the same time.

If he could just enter their network…

If he could just be one of them…
