Teach Me In a Dream

Constellations of values and ethics like dancing stars in onyx nights. Majestic fields of ideals stay grounded in what only seems right. Keenly, I search philosopher’s heels to grasp theoretical notions, held together by gravity’s scales as comets of light circle in tails and teach me in a dream. What is the uniqueness of your poetry? Someone once said to me that “poetry can’t include abstract language.” Well, that really got me going! As a lover of language and theory I just couldn’t let this one pass. The uniqueness of my poem is that I use abstract language with planetary imagery to lightly illustrate two mega-abstract ideas, ethics & philosophy. The end culminates that all knowledge is refutable (i.e. “and teach me in a dream”).

Enjoyed reading your creative work..Ethics is something that is grounded in many..A person's philosophy can be anything and they can come up with things to back it up but it might not be really ethical at all..Good one to get people to thinking..Sara
