Is it logic
Is it impulse
Is it neither
Or then both
Is it Descartes
Is it Hegel
Is it Kantian
In our hope
Will we whisper
Will we dictate
Will we prejudge
Most devout
Will we wonder
Will we question
Will we pander
Into doubt
In the morning
In the noontide
In the twilight
Of our youth
Reason saunters
Reason flounders
Reason kneels
— before the truth

Another lovely write my friend and yes reason does kneel before the truth if we can find it. Sometimes what we feel is truth is not but a disguise.
Ah Yes ! The Jester is always lurking ...
May he not trip you up this day
Kurt, this feels like that space where thinking can only take you so far…where logic circles and circles until something deeper steps in. I’ve been there…trying to reason my way through what can’t quite be reasoned. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Jim Morrison talked about 'Breaking Through.' Thanks TR.
He sure did! Let's! Rock on, my friend!
