Is the very last thing I want to do
Not to tell you this would be remiss 
It is still on the list.

I deny Socrates.
I don’t know that I don’t know.
But I believe it.

I am, not because I think.
But I believe  it.

But her dogs are easy 
And they are so busy 
With my hands, legs, hat and coat

Envision of ruins
soaked the agony
skirting around my cocoon

"If I could wander again"
ashes floated singing
an illusion of escape

Pondered what's best:  To be or be not.

     That to exist 
Is often more trouble than not.”

Premium Member Philosophical Questions

Is a barber or scissors the snipper?
A shoeless man, or sock, the slipper?
Why was mom, not a housewife, but a stripper?
You may as well ask a dolphin - Flipper?

Quartain - Philosophical

For years my soul dwelled in an unknown body 
Praising and appreciating her splendor, 
This turned out to be a fisher’s net 
where, hearts were disintegrated from the body.

a psychological exercise is
not...
a cycle-logical exert of
eyes...

it be a philosophical excise of a

Mangrove Jack

Mangrove Jack
He might attack
Always lurking 
Never twerking 
Twigs in his hair
His smell everywhere 
Dirt under his nails
His creepiness prevails 
Mangrove Jack
He will be back…

Peace Is Time Stamped

From very far away heard the death.
Each word pounded against silence
Withered breaths of mine panicked
Reality forced a
whisper in the ear,
faded were gone.
Rush to the
time-stamped
Peace.

Premium Member 'more Better'

There is no more car, no more home;
No more boat, nor jewelry;
There is no better game, no better food,
No better clothes, nor finery.
But there is a more and a better
From which more better comes.

The Winter Spring

Does the winter really turn into spring,
Does it go from a white to a green sort of thing?
Or, is a winter a thing of its own–
A singular winter, past, off to places unknown?

Premium Member Of the Brain

Philosophical usually means “of the brain” To this guy it usually means a real brain drain As we all get older Our brains still smoulder But our drive takes a detour to a different plane

Premium Member In the Universe

Life is a tapestry
I but a thread in Nature's palate
How can it be that I am the beauty and ugliness
Confirmed in the love of understanding all things
I am all that is known by me
Where do I go when I'm already here

Premium Member Forsooth

If deathless prose there be, forsooth
In poetry lives on more truth
Through life in soul which outlasts all
Whose breath is life, and death is small
As stone will claim what bones remain
And all ends in public domain
