This is a Haiku to a Rhyme to a Couplet poem
Structure frames our lives Absurdity debated Proof lies beyond words In the halls of thought where meanings cast aside Sartre proclaims the universe a jest Yet words his own become the threads he hides Weaving structure from chaos: never clever To say “life’s absurd,” then publish, reason and speak, Requires a scaffold firm beneath each claim Conviction breathes in every phrase we tweak Absurdity masks yet rules remain the same To exile The Holy Spirit or things unseen By a simple denial is not complete Deny eternity or the Divine Remains By a corpse’s silence shows our losses not our gains Assuming is not knowing so it seems Let questions bloom and certainty give way For meaning lingers deep within what we presuppose Defying all the voices of dismay with “God knows!” Post script: Do you feel gipped because all the while You assumed that the river in Egypt was denial Were you taken in by Mr. Unger’s argument that’s been harried Did you assume to exhume an argument that’s been dead and buried? When you assume why can't you see That you make an ass out of you and me
