Philosophy

It could be Nietzsche
Written all over the face, eh? Woman and whip, upward instead of onward, holy spoken error, isolation ward against tyrannical desires. Or perhaps. No tiger tooth amulet will help, no tank will protect, lacking camouflage or a thick coat of fur, no matter, naked egotism will bring success. Even that could just as well be Nietzsche, then, for every word is prejudice.

With Friedrich Nietzsche we honor all philosophers.

Would and deed

It’s a matter of what it’s worth.

Were this one to do what s/he wanted

and were wanting

what would-be thinking were

then literally nothing would get anywhere

of that which someone would find it

worthwhile to actually say

Oh the philosophers

for example Nietzsche

he doesn’t forget the whip when thinking

and when we think of wisdom’s friends

we don’t forget Nietzsche

Oh those philosophers

ever searching

for knowledge of truth

they are in certain ways

and in uncertain ways

certain of their errors

the standing errors

and the non-standing

seen or out of oversight

immortal

Ah those who are yet to come

perhaps languishing on a sperm bank

dangling their inner legs

one genius after another

waiting for his calling

and they’re already thinking

what – if this one

should come –

they’ do
