Words

Posted on December 15, 2011 by Thomas

Philosophers seek for truth and meaning,
While poets just play with words.
Thinkers look for the essential thing,
But I keep hearing the verbs.
If ideas are what’s essential,
And words are inconsequential,
Will philosophers give some sign of their bind
In being forced to rely on what poets find?
