Out Of Ideas Poem by Christopher Tye

Out Of Ideas

How many poems can a poet write before the words fall silent,
How much can a single mind produce in a lifetime,
After all without ideas words are just words.

How much can a physicist add to humanity's knowledge,
Is space really the expanding infinity we believe it to be,
Are the big bang theory and string theory just ideas.

Without ideas are we really still human,
For if I think therefore I am defines us as a species,
Do ideas or lack of them define a person.
