And Diogenes is in his corner
and this young man
new Philosophy Graduate
of the Academy comes up to him
and sits beside him on the steps
of Raphael's School of Athens
and the young man says to Diogenes:
*'There is no such thing as motion, Diogenes.
I shall prove to you through complex philosophy.'*
And Diogenes gets up
and he walks away from
the School of Athens
and he goes to his tub
at the end of the marketplace
