Epistemology Poem by Richard Wilbur

Epistemology

Rating: 3.5


I.
Kick at the rock, Sam Johnson, break your bones:
But cloudy, cloudy is the stuff of stones.

II.
We milk the cow of the world, and as we do
We whisper in her ear, 'You are not true.'

" We milk the cow of the world as we do we whisper in her ear, you are not true" Meaningful couplets.
