God is
or He isn’t
All human reasoning
— dust in the wind

Had It Backwards,
Too?
You'll Figure
It Out.

I deny Socrates.
I don’t know that I don’t know.
But I believe it.
I deny Descartes.
I am, not because I think.
But I believe it.
I exist, I live,
I suffer, I feel, I err -
I love and am loved!
~~~
With special thanks
to Rene Descartes.
today
we don't think
therefore we are not
descartes is dead and gone
machines and computers work and think for us
our minds are shrinking, withering and decaying from lack of exercise
Before Rene Descartes does this world depart
he gives analytic geometry its big head start
from bugs that draw graphs crawling on his ceiling;
as he lies sprawling, sick in bed, reeling.
The account of Descartes was redoubtable:
“I exist, since this thought is undoubtable.”
Mister Hume peered inside,
Said, “I see naught besides
Just my thoughts, so your logic is floutable.”
Cogito, ergo sum
I think, therefore I am
Rene Descartes
I don’t think~ therefore I am not!
Non puto, non sum
Oliver Mckeithan
Rene Descartes said
I think, therefore I am
Yet might you not say
I am, therefore I think
Which comes first
The think or the am
The am or the think
Weigh this long enough
It may drive you to drink!
What if the great Rene Descartes,
Renaissance man of many parts.
for all his fame and coruscation
is nothing but a fine creation
of my own imagination?
Philosophically disabused.
I think therefore I am
confused.
i think thus i am
is taught in school as if true
rene descartes thought
not based on premise
nor science of rationale
just ego feeling
of mind being clear
that what came to fore is truth
in reality

I do not know what I think until I write it.
~ George Bernard Shaw ~
.
To write or not to write - that is the question.
Descartes said that he exists because of thinking.
To write or write in rhymes is so close.
So, 'thinking', in my case, won't be in prose.
Some think of geometry as art,
but I don't include Renes Descartes.
A philosopher of calibra,
he combined geometry with algebra.
When in a pickle or a fix he
was not only just whistling Dixie.
He was writing down equations,
perfect for geometric occasions.
Procession
Blessed within living water
Thank you Father
For your fire
Appointed
Anointed
I AM
Therefore I AM your creation of thought
Descartes said this a lot
I think therefore I am
God said
I AM THAT I AM
Blessing our Father inspirational love
Jesus Christ lives
Together
We are truth
Decry and damn dualism,
for what has it wrought?
A delusion of soul,
of separation and isolation.
Minds absorbed in endless
effort to divide.
Let’s start again – tabula rasa,
and vanquish the mind
to the void where
thence it merges with
the Singularity – the place
where Beginnings begin.
From life’s final dissertation,
logic must be barred
A blueprint of our limitations,
its legions burned and scarred
In that last final closing moment,
transcendence kindled bright
The strictures of its failed excuse
—left victim to the night
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2019)
"Why's a handsome guy like you not married?"
"I guess life just got away from me
However I can live, laugh and love in my poetry"
One said "A woman is not as lovely as the truth" Another
"A woman would interrupt my daily walk and cause me to depart"**
For rhymes sake, I am not like Immanuel Kant or Rene Descartes
"i think thus i am"
thoughts...they're just passage of time...
a non existent
self that's of the world
as the world is of the self...
both just rationale
not truth but true...yes
there's awareness or world thought...
clear or color blind
appreciation
music love freedom...let go
"i think thus i am"

How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them! (Psalm 139:17)
“I think, therefore I am...” Rene Descartes

I hope this concept is familiar to you.
I’m sure you are acquainted with “absolute value”.
Points lie in the plane left of the y-axis.
Integers can have negative values because of this.
There’s nothing difficult here; it’s quite simple.
Rene Descartes introduced us to this principle.
In minus territory is where I find your value.
Why don’t you just abscond and bid adieu?
Descartes could only hope to be
from the simple act of thought;
yet I can hope for so much more
in feeling that which life has brought
Only can we hope to know,
to be, or not; 'tis fairly plain
through the feeling, all we share
the sublime to the mundane
Hear me, feel me, forget me not;
hate me, love me, part or whole
I feel, therefor compelled to write;
or cheat my very soul
If consciousness dies
is that all there is
or does some higher state
reimagine what was
When consciousness dies
will birth reoccur
no longer indentured
to time and its spurs
If consciousness dies
do rainbows of light
take over our essence
transcending our sight
When consciousness dies
is confusion bereft
as reference get buried
—and prescience resets
(The New Room: March, 2023)
Rene Descartes said “Cogito ergo sum”
“I think therefor I am”.
Consciousness of being is true regardless our reality, be it
corporeal, digital or mechanical.
We may live in a computer simulation, or made out of steel, but “Cogito ergo sum”
What is real?
Does it even matter?
“I think therefor I am”.
We, therefore, create our own realities, regardless of our state of being!
Intelligence regardless!
Is it logic
Is it impulse
Is it neither
Or then both
Is it Descartes
Is it Hegel
Is it Kantian
In our hope
Will we whisper
Will we dictate
Will we prejudge
Most devout
Will we wonder
Will we question
Will we pander
Into doubt
In the morning
In the noontide
In the twilight
Of our youth
Reason saunters
Reason flounders
Reason kneels
— before the truth
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)
Rene Descartes popularized
The phrase: Cogito ergo sum-
I think therefore I am. How wise!
If I’m thinking, then it’s presumed
That I exist because of “I”
The one doing the thinking.
On this point we see eye to eye;
Even so, it begs questioning
Beyond my very existence;
That is, the question: who am I?
A query asked with persistence.
What does “buried beneath” imply?
Does it mean “core sense” of myself
Or an illusion of one’s self?
