(Saw some poems on philosophy, it reminded me of this old thing [15 years]. Decided I'd inflict it on anyone dumb enough to read it. I'm sure it has something to do with natural selection.)
Plato, Eckhart, David Hume,
must I these moldy text exhume?
Nietzsche, Hegel, Heidegger,
black the sun and muss the air.
Phenomenology,
not what a word is meant to be,
Episte who? Episte what?
I think this all a bunch of rot.
It makes my head begin to ache,
It makes my knees begin to shake.
Kant with sentence much to long,
Aristotle defines what’s wrong.
Cogito ergo sum,
hubris though I might presume,
I just don’t get it, I just don’t see,
why the hell philosophy?

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
