Wittgenstein

i wanted something
to interject that i
might respect or
at least reflect on
maybe some kind of

meaning but meaningless
ly i stand subjectively but
questioning my object
ivity where the finality
doesn't seem to agree but

i might stretch my words
and lines so they can
define what i want 
or want to be and so
what i told you was so 

so philosophical this
is a rose petal but
poetically this is
perhaps a lab ia
but aren't each of 

these straining words
or thoughts be one
of these meanings to
never exactly mean to
what they may never mean

there is no truth
in totality for
being seen
and being with
out being are simply

words
