How

Can I explain the

unprobable certainty

of being certain

being?

Being that certain

Was probable.


By the effort exerted;

By the echo of words;

in echoes that sound;

and by sheer awe.


In sound s

there is no s and no sound.

As sound comes later —

later comes s.


Invitation

Can you please come?

Come, can you, please?


Two liners: —

One goal.


Slave to my self,

Who I cannot help,

Am no safer help

than if self-slaving it


Short

but precise.

Directing

price.


No, I can’t:

Kant I cannot.

For what I can’t

Kant’s cannot.


Please follow:

Am I making sense?

If yes, go on;

If not, follow please.


Dictums

In fours:

Force of

Dictum.


Self reflexive writing:

Slow, conscious, confusing.

Avoid thinking

About what you’re doing.


These

are the tools

in the Philosopher’s

Toolkit.


How to make sense

of the previous sense?

Is that a sense?

Or that we sense?
