There's Been A Movie Not So Long Ago

It Makes Sense That Freud Would Try To Attribute To The Psychosis
It makes sense that Freud would try to attribute to the psychosis In light of its more negative prognosis Repression of what in his view Was much more shameful a taboo Than what would be sufficient for neurosis He was attempting to reduce the difference in kind To a difference of dosis And since...

If You're Looking At A Working Regularity

Silence Is Called Perfect Speech
Silence is called perfect speech But you cannot practice it and teach Which makes it just like theory to me A product of the university You leave it outside of the temple What lives here lives on by example

The Fact That We See Bodies With Or Without Soul
The fact that we see bodies with or without soul But never see a soul without a body Does not mean that our eyes are rather shoddy But that the world is not the whole The world hence points away at God Who left His signature omission To be filled in by our double vision Provided that "the soul"…

Myths Of Our Creation
Myths of our creation Are acts of self-aggrandization Pretending God is our fan Or that we figure in his plan . Although it may be true indeed That God has the ability to need The fact of needing our participation Would prove His limitation And by denying His perfection We are denied the...

She Wears Her Pretty Face

We Find That All Things Everywhere
1 We find that all things everywhere Are either made or found But nothing's pulled out of thin air "To make" thus makes an artificial sound Unless it mean "to tease out of the ground" 2 "To make" means to put what is found together A pen is ink touched to a feather And poetry is meaning joined to...

The Depth Of Magritte's Looking Glass Of 1963
The depth of Magritte's "Looking Glass" of 1963 Is of a higher order quality than the unaided eye can see Suffice to notice that the sky is not just painted on the panes Lest the weather be erased by its own rains But how the gap in the illusory extremal Is part of the same missing epistemal With...

Six Walls Define This Sleeping Room
Six walls define this sleeping room But one of them is king Sometimes it speaks and I awake To learn about affairs of state But the noises that a wall can make Are just not very interesting More like the intermittent boom Of a circ'ambulent baboon Who hasn't yet been fed But whatever goes on...

Schöpfung, Which Is German For Creation
Schöpfung, which is german for "creation", Describes the action of a bucket in a well Whereby a thing depleted must descend to hell And must be full again upon its elevation What drags us down is hence not our weight But the lack of faith which turns lack into hate

The Earth's A Sphere So Vast
The Earth's a sphere so vast That its curvature seems flat Maybe time is just like that : Once the future at some point Will have turned into the past What made the two disjoint ? Is time an arrow or a noose ? Is it a valid premonition That everything is repetition Or is it just the least…

The World Is Structured Very Neatly
The world is structured very neatly You could alter any of its parts completely And barely notice any change whatever But the universal law is brittle Were you to change it but a little The oceans would boil over and the planets fall together

Is The Logos Our True Dimension
Is the logos our true dimension Or is reason just our appetites' extension Which is discovery, which is invention What is the difference between the Want and Ought That I am my feeling but that I do my thought Do not both intrude unwanted and unsought

Climate Change Is Finally A Thing
Climate change is finally a thing Said the oil baron to the king Who said : Come again? I wasn't listening Climate change is finally a thing What does this mean for the demand Asked him the owner of the land My lord I do not understand What does this mean for the demand It means there's nothing…

No Sooner Found That It Is Great
No sooner found that it is great Than felt the urge to denigrate The world by stripping it of meaning Inventing some much greater being Asserting that it's too complex To have had come about nihilo ex Meant greatness of a lesser kind Which therefore had to be designed It is such manufactured…

While I Was Waiting For A Train
While I was waiting for a train There appeared three young gandarme Whose presence there was nothing to explain My social anxiety must have triggered an alarm Prepared for harm they passed me by Then turned around and passed me by again An electronic eye Must have picked up on the heat The...

Governments, Like Operating Systems, Are Robust
Governments, like operating systems, are robust This follows from their definition as a must Which hasn't got a lot to do as such With trust or with stability so much As with the primacy of continuity The ability to function under stress To recover from and work through its own mess

I Couldn't Make It To My Leftist Demonstration
I couldn't make it to my leftist demonstration I know I am no credit to my generation But though it may be indistinguishable from procrastination The explanation is that it depends The alienation which outside is marching on with you Exists not only from the Marxist point of view But in the…

Midway On The Journey Through My Only Life
Midway on the journey through my only life I find myself re-reading Genesis 2:25 About the nakedness of Adam and his wife Where I am struck with the significance of shame : How with this one feeling all their many troubles came . And I've been hoping, but apparently in vain, That those parts of…

When All Is Said And Done
When all is said and done What's most surprising about E. coli Syn61 Is that despite so much redundance having gone The life in the small critter rages on ! I'm awed and terrified and proud At the fertility of scientific doubt, Of our ability to reach down to the Adēlon . But trying to explain...

Nachts Wach' Ich Mehrmals Wieder Auf
Nachts wach' ich mehrmals wieder auf Die Kopfhaut kribbelt und ich schnauf' . Ich schnarche wohl vom Staub ! Das Hirn wird langsam langsam und wie taub ; Möglich gehe ich so drauf .

Give Me Liberty
Give me liberty ! Or else provide me with some datum Such as would incentivize to rethink this ultimatum ; Perchance to re-invigorate in me the question Of whether not a longer life devoted to reflexion, In other words : a fuller measure Of sustained self-critical displeasure, May serve to end up...
