Empirical Metaphysical Friends

Empirical Metaphysical Friends 

An observable place in space and time is mine
Empirical reason shines in solid form on me
On the other hand
Not so tangible
Above the fray of ordinary life
Beyond all nature or just above it
Somewhere out of sight but not of thinking
Metaphysical formulas come in and out to tease me 
They are my friends as well
Even though I don’t understand their nature
It’s true that I can’t see them  
But that’s alright
Empirical is always there to hold the logic down
So I have peace to work on objects
Let’s call them subjects not so sound
