A poem, written by M̶i̶h̶a̶i̶l̶ ̶C̶ă̶r̶t̶ă̶r̶e̶s̶c̶u̶ Artificial Intelligence.

This is an instruction, written by Sartre, how to eat a hamburger while of surfing the wave, as a poem:

A person’s life can be instructive for others in many ways.

Another philosopher, a contemporary of Sartre, Mihail Cărtărescu (1948-), an interesting and controversial Romanian novelist, living in Paris, who has continued to write in the Romanian language, has written an interesting poem, called “The Method”.

KEEP YOUR MOUTH HALF CLOSED

THEN CUT THE HAMBURGER PETAL BY PETAL
