Three Faces Philosophy
Three Faces Philosophy
What keeps the certainty,
The “solid” floor underfoot,
Which physics has taught me
Not to trust,
Or the tautness of my skin
Holding me in?
Taught me naught
Where I begin,
Or end
And in the end, is the reward
The Knowledge, the prize,
The secret of this mystery of
Life?
Mired in the supposed toil
To an extent we must, we must,
Growing old countenances
Labor under the force of gravity,
To deny our return to dust,
We exist sad beneath fantastic disguises.
