For your Poe-etic reading pleasure:
The glassy blue eye
Glances, no glares, balefully;
His intruding boss.
Stressed he is for time
As are we, the underlings;
But, no sympathy.
But, that eye, that eye!
Poe saw it, that glassy eye
That drove a man mad.
I'll not kill my boss
Though I fear no tell-tale heart;
I'll just remember.
The glassy blue eye
Windowless window of soul,
Haunted, tired, burdened.
But, no sympathy?
A two-way street, a highway;
Too bad, glassy eye.
This is a slice of my philosophical, lay scientific, musical, religious skepticism, and poetic musings. (All poems are my own.) The science and philosophy side meet in my study of cognitive philosophy; Dan Dennett was the first serious influence on me, but I've moved beyond him. The poems are somewhat related, as many are on philosophical or psychological themes. That includes existentialism and questions of selfhood, death, and more. Nature and other poems will also show up here on occasion.
