Philosophy

Posted at 5:15 pm under Poetry, noise, ponderings, reality

Philosophy
someone’s idea
of what I should think
quotes
words to live by
maxims
axioms
axiomatic truisms
Man can not embrace his own experience
blah blah blah
Made for empty minds
compelled to fill
to stave off the hunger
for something true.
Time? Space? Libido complex?
Delusions of grandeur? perhaps.
Know what you know and
know that you know,
I always say
Ivory towers are better
left for ivy
and long-haired beauties looking
for love

    Fantastic!

    A friend of mine, an urban poet of sorts (http://www.myspace.com/aramaelsmusic), has a wonderful line that I was reminded of as I read this piece:

    “philosophy’s a nemesis of mine ‘cause I’m tryin’ to make sense of a world still emotionally blind”

    hi wayne,
    good to see you - what have you been up to lately? last time i came by you hadn’t written anything lately, hope that has changed.

    your friend makes good sense. for me, this is just about the bullshit that people believe or are convinced to believe when it has no basis in fact at all. too much of it flying around these days, eh?
    sarah
