The skin 

is no more separated from the brain

than the surface of a lake is separated from its depths; 

the two are different locations on a continuous medium.  

Peripheral and central are merely spatial distinctions 

which do more harm than good if 

they lure us into forgetting 

that the brain is a single functional unit 

from the cortex to the fingertips and toes. 

To touch the surface is to stir the depths.
