Philosophy Poem by John Prophet

Philosophy
Contemplation.
Why?
Why
anything?
Why
anything
at all?
Existence,
what's the
point?
Grappling for
understanding.
Avenues of
approach.
Delving for
answers.
Answers!
Infinite.
The finite
wrestling
with the
infinite.
Primate
contemplation.
How far
can it
reach?
How much
can be
known?
Working with
what's
provided.
Intellectually
governed.
Limited
in scope.
Philosophy.
Thinking,
searching.
Working
with what's
supplied.
Shackled by
reality.
Exploring
nonetheless.
Philosophy,
why not?
