To a PHILOSOPHER
I am a Prestigious Professor of Philosophy,
At a quite Elite University.
I get generous grants,
To sit on my pants,
And write books that nobody reads.

What if - An Election Day Riddle
If doctrine and dogma
held a conference with reality
and an agreement was reached
on a common philosophy and set of tenants
Would that be a paradox or paradigm shift?

NEVER A BORROWER NOR A LENDER BE
Never a borrower nor a lender be
That is my simple philosophy
But if the need you can’t resist
Borrow money from a pessimist
A positive attitude they sadly lack
So they don’t really expect it back

who wore pure thoughtlessness
as his new philosophy
while imposing absurd notions
on the youthful minds of persuasion

Rapper
it's my own philosophy
and i believe it's true
one cannot be a rapper
unless they have gone through some drama
that one finds hard to cope with
any kind of scenario that torture our souls
that's what we rap about
like poverty and ridicule
ask me about it

Vienna Bombardier
There is a lady
In my Soups,
She writes poetry
As she stoops
To think about philosophy
Or talk about life's mystery.
And everytime I read her songs,
I must use the dictionnary
To understand the rights and wrongs
Of her deep dip-in poetry:
I sent her back
A bomb attack !

Style
Prissy visuals spinning in twinkleflirt
ain't it. Nor gruesome grinding gory grunge.
Attention to details, respect for hurt
words that tickle fickle souls 'til they plunge
into philosophy. Thus is her orange
way of living, breathing, eating, writing.
Rolls like thunder and flashes like lightening.

Failed Philosophy Students
Philosophers debated:
Can a medium ever be small or large?
Is faux leather from fake cows?
Does a hypochondriac think he has everything except hypochondria?
Do denture wearers always give us false smiles?
If a snail loses its shell, does it become a slug?

As a giant squid’s arms reach out for me
He boasts, “I am the Kraken”
But something he’s a-lackin’
One brush of my wings; he's pre-history

For you
Have you ever written with all your heart
bared your soul till you cry
passion of the ink keeps me alive
a deep love, so many messages,
words running constantly in my head
i feel the need for nothing more
poetry, stories, rhymes, philosophy, affirmations
what ever comes i must pass on
not for me, but for you...

Prove I Am Strong
I'm going to prove everyone wrong.
I'm going to prove I am strong.
I will find a place to belong.
I will follow the philosophy of a song.
I am going after for what I long.
I am accepting all which makes me strong.
I'm lonely because I am not where I belong.
I'm determined to prove them wrong.
I will follow my heart's song.

how their pieces transform us

Unenlightened One
Wherein do dreams lie in your philosophy?
In the realm of a deluded mind?
In the chasing of mere fantasy?
Wherein does love go in your own mastery?
In surrender only to the world?
In check to give to one completely?
Wherein do hopes lead to sorrows only?
In a promise that clings to its vision?
In a heart that wants but joyous unity?

Capitalist
A world ruled only by capitalist’s ideology,
The proletariat continues to adhere to their beliefs and philosophy
A society with one world order,
An the existence of a social class border,
Oppression and depression that’s what the poor cry
One ruler with one suggestion,
An entire nation with a level of high economic suppression.

The Philosophy Of Mercy And Cruelty
Once I went to a very wise man
– Of whom, I’d been for a long a fan –
Complaining daily attacks, clashes n’ bloodshed,
N’ said, “I’m with it totally up-fed”.
But the wise man gave me such a wise reply
That there opened before my eyes a new sky.
He said, “Dear! Mercy on bloodthirsty predicators
Is a callus cruelty to all weak creatures!

Philosophy of a Housewife
The furniture needs a dusting
The floors mopped and swept
The bathroom needs a scrubbing
The evening meal to prep
Dirty dishes line the counter
The laundry's in a heap
Pet hair on the cushions
The windowpanes are streaked
In such disarray, I'm overwhelmed
I really should get hopping
But, tomorrow IS another day
I think I'll just go shopping!

Freedom is a must
Freedom is a must
It shall came to past
We need freedom
The philosophy for this kingdom
Freedom is love
Freedom will take you higher and above
Freedom is the truth
Ye shall know the truth
And the truth shall
Set you free
Freedom from evil
Freedom from want
Freedom from pain
Freedom to gain
In this life
We need freedom
Freedom is a must
It shall come to past

Seek
I never ever thought you’d see,
the likes of all these words,
but now you’ve seen,
and that worries
me.
Because what’s between,
beyond pen and ink,
is a state of glee;
but beyond this all,
is an escapee.
So now you’ve seen my philosophy
which hath your mind undone.
Now mind so clean,
you see the sun,
above the open sea.
And so I say to thee,
please just let me be.

Mindless
MINDLESS
Speak to me not
Of philosophy and such
Socrates bores me a lot
And Buddha is really too much
I want only to hear
What is happening today
Let me make it perfectly clear
You have nothing to say
That will improve my mind
And the harder you try
You will certainly find
Your words of enlightenment I will defy
Please give it up my friend
And consider this the end.

Geminian
My feelings often
Change mercurially,
From happily smiling
To superficial self-pitying.
My beliefs once
Perplexingly flipped-around,
Deconstructing from certain faith
Into reluctant doubt.
My thoughts always
Lack boundaries,
Ranging from average simplicity
To dramatic philosophy.
My ways of thinking are
Essences of my personality,
Developing from birth
Into metamorphosis of my identity.

Down Philosophy Lane
Down philosophy lane,
Down sanity obtained,
Down inanity slain,
Down reason’s domain,
To fathom what wanders,
Drifting thoughts that wonder
To be taken away, plundered,
Synthesis amongst and under,
Down the lane of lore,
Sauntering to explore
The loved and abhorred,
Wisdom, the after and before,
Down philosophy lane,
Down the joy and pain,
Down what lives to remain,
Down the arcane…

The Cycle
She is beautiful in her awkwardness
Armed with a tired smile
Foolishly believing in good all the while....
Broken hearts her path has trodden
Time foolishly mended what should have not been forgotten
'Whatever does not kill me' her philosophy
Or is it just a desperate plea?
An excuse to punish her own delicate soul
Hoping this sadistic ritual we will never know
'I will fix him someday'
That's what we all say.

Caress Of The Wind
He was like a cold winter's day,
Distant and aloof.
A rhyme from God's kingdom,
That I did not comprehend.
Melting with the sunlight,
When he appeared.
A passion that you could,
Never touch.
His philosophy was kindness,
To humanity and neighbours.
An intelligence of the future,
Where you could learn.
Appearing on God's stage,
Like the caress of the wind.

The philosophy of water
Be water brother
Be water
For if you put water in a
cup
It takes the shape of the
cup
Put water in a tank
It will take the shape of
the tank
Put water in a pool
And it will take the shape
of the pool
So be water brother
Be water
Rise to any height
Don't stop the fight
Take your form
Do perform
A running water can not be
still
So keep flowing
Go on, keep moving
Don't stop brother
Flow like water

inverted universe
what do i see now,
everyone with the same vow,
everywhere i walk,
tragedy is the only talk,
every heart full of pain,
eyes full of rain,
disgust in the gesture,
cruel dirty brain!
dark lights,
shrinking sun,
worthless fights,
and dissatisfaction!
killers of the thoughts,
readers of the pain,
mad man's philosophy,
play behind the curtain!
haters' love fuss,
players' loss,
inverted world,
inverted universe!!

Positive Thinking
I will think positive so I can be,
To think of defeat means only to lose,
So I shall think of how winning suits me,
And how I will live my life as I choose,
It’s all in my mind and my mind thinks free.
The power of thought, a wonderful thing,
My philosophy that lifts my heart high,
I believe in rainbows where bluebirds sing,
And if I want to, I can kiss the sky,
And it doesn’t matter what dark clouds bring.

What Is Love
Worldly care and friendship
House of happiness and hope
Acting friendships complex and diversified
Teachers of patience and virtue
Invincible and awe inspiring
Songs of praise and worship
Love that parents and children share guided by God
Open and shut books of excellence and philosophy
Visible signs of caring for your neighbour and good friends
Experiences of excellence personified by God

DEBTS OF GRATITUDE
Wanted to pay
debts of gratitude.
There was a call from evergreens,
he was not ready to go.
Standing in pit of snakes
he was preparing himself for a random fang,
throat like a blue-bird
waiting for a song.
The solid waste of numerals
across the thinking,
developed plaques, while philosophy
was accepting innovation.
The authority had started
reading the couplets.
Glory came earlier
sea cracked into shells.

New Philosophy
Should I be doing this?
I don't know?
Should I keep going?
Or just let it be?
This definite attraction
Is overwhelming me
All of these thoughts and feelings
Are making it hard
For me to see clearly
This is crazy!
I don't know if I'm ready
But then again
Relationships are rarely easy
These walls are building up
All around me
As a warning
To tread lightly
This is it!
Time for a new philosophy
Gonna go with the flow
And just be me

what

is there any proof?
do we hope to discover,
anything beyond what we think we can see?
in the end we are figments of imagination
without imagination this entire world will fall to pieces!
none of us will ever know because we never really were here, or were we?

December Dreaming
This is a good month to take up old battles
with the chance of victory before the new year
and now in this December I fight for dreams
Old dreams I thought I had given away
Like dignity and philosophy and chemistry and libraries and poetry and hope
if the theme reappears so often it is only because the inspiration behind it has lasted so long
this month I fight for dreams before the new year
and set my ship to this new late current
this December

Thomas and Sally
When Thomas went down on Sally
did he curse the weakness
of his white flesh or did he see
her dark thighs as his due?
Did he forget all his philosophy,
or try to use it to justify his lust,
or did he love,
without reserve?
When Sally went down on Thomas,
did she curse her weakness
for white privilege or did she see
her dark thighs as a trap?
Did she forget all her loyalties,
or try to use them to justify her lust,
or did she love,
without reserve?

Volpe
He is not a man
but a weapon in human form.
Unsheathed,
gleaming point pressed
against the throat of the world.
Releasing change
in crimson torrents
that rush and cascade
around him.
He fights out of fear;
A fear of leaving the world
in the same,
sorry state
they first met.
Cold,
hungry,
and searching-
searching for hope.
Is he the answer?
HIs weapon is a pen,
brandished in the
face of evil.
His ammunition words,
and prose
and philosophy,
and most of all-
Love.

The Philosophy of the Broken
What am I supposed to do,
When waking up each day gets old?
What shall I look forward to,
When there is no shining light to behold?
How can I see your true colors,
If you strip me color-blind?
Why won’t you wait for me,
So I can call you “mine”?
I see my pathetic attempts at romance,
And the demise of happiness in my life...
I watch myself fall, and laugh.
So what if misery drags me down?
It’s better to be down-to-earth,
Than stuck in the clouds.
Right?

Karma
Three worms were chatting in a tree,
one tells the others his philosophy.
The unknowing two laugh at the speaker,
"do not laugh, I am your teacher."
The two worms call him names and slander his words,
not knowing they just made their death with the birds.
Down swoops the bird who gets one worm,
the other gets scared and tries to squirm.
"I told you to listen,
but you laughed in my face,
sense you threw back my gift,
you will share the other worms fate."
