Vanity

¿I’m a historic photograph,
Of architected authors,
Actively arguing with musical philosophers,
About whether psychology is a science ¿

Premium Member Generalizing People Is Ridiculous

all whites
democrats
Irish or Scottish
Not ALL, philosophers think.
All Japanese, all Chinese, all Indians…
Generalizing any group is ridiculous!

Into The Mystic

What is love
if not an out of body
experience

Proving the dualist
philosophers right
— and the poet’s words set free

(The New Room: March, 2025)

Premium Member Mnemonic Tools

To stick in the minds of their dearest readers,
poets will use rhymes as mnemonic tools.
This means they will just as easily be remembered
as great philosophers or fantastic fools.

Premium Member THANKFUL FOR LOVE AND GARDENS AND LIBRARIES

Today I’m thankful for love, and gardens and libraries
for many philosophers and experts have agreed…
If you have 
love, 
a garden 
and a library…
you have everything you need.

Listen to poem:
from the cauldron of universities
budding philosophers
burgeoning idealists
determined to fix the world
of all its malice and corruption

Premium Member Lickety-Split

Love grows lickety-split
In the fertile hearts of
Children,
Keeping innocence alive;
Especially in
The very
Young.

Some
Philosophers contend that
Love
Is unique to
The soul of Man, and I agree.
Form: Acrostic

Visceralis Veritas

Can you see that it’s true,
but not prove what you know

A problem physicists
and philosophers share

Hints all around,
results to confound

As the questions unanswered
—ensnare

Premium Member Kids Laugh

Poor bug, upside down
   Young kids, gathered round
Bug's legs, kicking wildly
   Kids laugh, rather snidely...

Kids are naturally kind
   Philosophers preach
Read them this poem
   Kids like a good laugh too
     ~ Let it teach

The Big Three

Once there were three great philosophers: The Big Three.
Street-corner philosopher, Philosopher who would be king,
long walk to the Golden Mean,
tutor to Alexander, the Great.
Bloody I dare to say “bloody” for thanks to “The Big Three”.

Premium Member Being

The discussion point—
I Be, I Am, I Exist.
Being is presence.
	 Philosophers Rejoice, Yes . . . 
The mortal plane is confirmed!

Premium Member Two-And-A-Half Chewy Cheers

Change is a constant
    while traditions die hard

  And they say the more things change
    the more they stay the same...

  Yet at the end of the game
    it's out with the old
      and in with the new
  
  An anomaly on which 
    philosophers chew

Premium Member Monoku A Philosophers Song







     In Judaeo-Christian cultures, when we equivocate, evil as 
     good, it marks the very beginning of our soul’s swan song.

Death of Four Letter Word

I was in love with love
But it forsaked me
Made me lonely when i requested its presence
Made me horny at the night
Talked about me to philosophers who labled me fool
Stole my appetite
Skipped my heart a beat 
Why won't love return my call?
Maybe she's busy loving someone else

Hai Gi

If you cant'sea the sign you'll be on a tangent.
A tan gent co-signs but see'can't cold tune-chant.
Image's after android meme.  Hidden ground ionic cream. 
Galaxy guten-morgue, Abr'am's dreams; 47 Fringe Trek 22 seams.
Hereaway Marks, a Butler's Nitche; High-digger Hails philosophers pitche.

Failed Philosophy Students

Philosophers debated:
Can a medium ever be small or large?
Is faux leather from fake cows?
Does a hypochondriac think he has everything except hypochondria?
Do denture wearers always give us false smiles?
If a snail loses its shell, does it become a slug?

Gravy Philosophy

If during a meal, I put a finger in the gravy 
and begin to write with the gravy,
am I being creative and philosophical
or just being absurd?

Am trying to read about this technique,
perhaps, a revolt to societal norm?
Philosophers seem to have an answer,
well thought out

 I'm simply sloppy!!

The Elusive Ghost

Can you be conscious
  without being self conscious,
  philosophers disagree

Being aware of your
  awareness,
  seems logical to me

But logic has its
  failings,
  as we pierce the inner mind

Perception,
  the most elusive ghost
   —and hardest to define

(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)

Premium Member Governance

LaoTse, of Taoist fame,
like other healthy politicians,
psychologists,
philosophers,
and poets,
was interested in the humor within spirit-nature's wisdom and folly,
as the wisdom uncovered
through nature-spirit's kind and unkind humors,
Golden and ReverseGolden Rules
of robustly democratic moral integrity.

In Poetrysoup

all are nice artists
                                       adorn beautiful pictures
                                          in the poems' pages 

                                          scientists of words
                                       not less than philosophers
                                           nice engineers too

Premium Member The Philosophers Doobie

 Blue Lotus it feeds the Soul
 and Expands the Mind to Infinite Mode,
 Sacred and Wise
 a Leaf of Wisdom, of Light, and of Life
 Got me pondering mysteries I'm Infinity
 Ones and Zeros to the depths of Eternity,
 Breaching Spacetime with this Glorious Spliff
 Crossing the Ethers Adrift,
 I AM So High, I Drift the Abyss
 Thrice Born, My Mind Shifts

Premium Member Where Does Doubt Dwell?

Not between heaven and earth,
but between “yes” and “why.”
Not in the mouths of philosophers,
but in the wounds of those who had no time to read.
Doubt is a woman with bound hands
who waits for me night after night
to say I no longer love her.
But I come,
and keep silent,
and lie down beside her
like beside a mother who forgot to give birth to me.

Revolution!

Time for Revolution!
spread the revelation.
Governmental evolution,
blessed elation!

With strange knowledge of fresh relation,
we'll overthrow the oppressive regime!
Our fiery souls burning with titillation!
we can't fail as a team.

But beware, dear philosophers, uprising is no picture of violet,
scarred spirits, forever changed, with images of the violent.
