PHILOSOPHY THOUGHTS AND OBSERVATIONS part 3


from the ABC set PHILOSOPHICALLY INCLINED TALES

LAWS OF THE UNIVERSE # 8

There is a corollary of lambast
Which should be printed in a book
Whenever an item is sought
It’s always in the last place you look

IF AT FIRST

If at first you don't succeed
Try try again?
If at first you don't succeed
WHY try again?

IS SIZE IMPORTANT?

The bigger they are
The harder they fall
I think the saying has it
Although in reality
The bigger they are
The harder they hit

IF AT FIRST BRUCE

By “If at first you don't succeed”
What Robert the Bruce meant
Was “If at first you don't succeed
Then try something different”

DOLLY WOULD

The bigger they are
The harder they fall
But in Dolly Parton’s views
I think the saying is
The bigger they are
The harder it is to see my shoes

RICH OR NOT

You shouldn’t care if you’re rich or not
As long as you live comfortably with your lot
And everything that you want you’ve got

THAT’S HISTORY

Those who don't study the past
Will be condemned to repeat its errors
Those who do study the past
Will find others ways to bring us terrors

IDIOTIC

One thing that you can
Really depend upon
There is always one more
Imbecile than you counted on

HI BROW?

The fashionable study
Of modern philosophy
Just lets us be unhappy
More intelligently

QUESTION

Is it questioning?
Or interlocutor-ing
Who is the interlocutor
Who is the interlocutor?
A statement or a question
By virtue of punctuation
