Creativity Might be Insanity
If one had a choice
They ought choose creativity
Over happiness
The only problem is
It may lead to insanity
The consequent of reason
To succinctly express experience
The distinctives of humanity
Symptoms of knowledge
To seek and be without
The goal is objectivity
A lone wanderer amongst all others
To gain peace with the world
An impossibility
Quit seeking and accede to suffering
That horror of the mind
To accept subjectivity
Breaks the will and spirit
Mastered by demons
Or divine sovereignty
Thomist or empiricist all the same
The more different we seek to be
Ever more apparent similarity
Natures of the person
And so I am lost
Amidst anti-community
Alone right next to everyone else
