STRANGE PHILOSOPHY
There is me
And there is me in the world
And the world is in me
Yet I am of the world.
There is my joy
And there is the world's despair
And there is my joy in the world
Yet I despair in the world.
There is now
And then there is tomorrow
And now will be there tomorrow
Yet tomorrow is today.
There is life
And there is death
And there is death in all life
Yet there is life in death.
It seems so clear
And it is so confusing
And then it's clear again
Yet I don't know it's source.
Footnote: I need to give a little history here...
This piece came at a time of extreme ambivalent feelings about
myself and the world at large. It has gone through many changes
(even as I transfer it from paper I have changed it yet again...)
this one I think is deep...
