Fecundity

This is a very good word. According to my dictionary, fecund means "fruitful or fertile, productive, prolific". I like how the word rolls off my tongue, how it manages to sound slightly smutty and wholly pompous at the same time. It has both hints of sex-like-crazed-weazels and eminent-professor-publishes-thesis to it.

My brain feels very fecund right now. Ideas and thoughts (about my life, about others, about Renaissance literature and faith and postmodernism and pain and self-deception and zoo animals) bounce around in my brain, turning about and occasionally kicking at my the inside of my skull. Some days I feel like Zeus about to have Athena pop, fully formed, out of his brain.

My brain is a breeding ground.
