The Nature of the Philosopher
What is a flag
if not a drag
queen's gown? And
are the stars
really too far
to bring down? And
why judge,
or begrudge,
summer's light? And
do you fear
it's drawing near,
the final night? And
why not play
for there is day
yet to waste? And
why die––
the time is nigh!––
alone in space? And
why not question? And
why not question? And
why not think?
if not a drag
queen's gown? And
are the stars
really too far
to bring down? And
why judge,
or begrudge,
summer's light? And
do you fear
it's drawing near,
the final night? And
why not play
for there is day
yet to waste? And
why die––
the time is nigh!––
alone in space? And
why not question? And
why not question? And
why not think?
