One made for somewhere else,

Ideas are not property?
Ideas are communal properties?
Ideas are properties of communities?

they are a property of the community of the minds that created them?
Do they own them?
Do they make them their own?
Are they owned by them?
Who owns these properties?
On Singing Thought.
Those who sing songs.
Singing the songs that were taught to them.
Songs of the minds that stole them from their ancestors.
Recapitulating ideas; barking them out in to the world.
Singing thoughts like the wolf howls at the moon.
Ideas are communities.
Ideas are properties.
Properties of the human condition.
Properties of a way of being.
Properties of existing in swarm.
The double sided nature of the human mind.
A swarm of people sharing ideas.
Barking madness at the human mind.
