Absence of the Mind
May 23, 2012
Water is wet
Water is wet
Wet is water
Is what I’m trying to say here
When saying water is wet, one plays the part of the clown
In our modern world
Where absurdity and blatant comments
Are sources of hilarity
The tomato is on fire
What tomato?
There isn’t one
Saying wet is water is something else entirely
The speaker is the philosopher
So often ridiculed
So often labeled
The clown is the one with nothing to say
With everyone to listen
The philosopher is the one with everything to say
And will never be heard
Be heard
