I hope you can forgive me. When I said I am, I meant I seem. And when I said The Earth is round, I meant It looked round. You don’t Believe much in science. You think There is no chemical response when I tell you I’m depressed. Sorry — I seem depressed. Literally, a flower is in front of your face, And you question it. Here is a flower. No — I hold what seems like a flower. When an earthquake occurs, you’ll say, Those movements felt like an earthquake. It was, and is, an earthquake. You can’t deduct truth from a situation Using language. You can only be precise with it. Oh, be. You hate be. To be, an anomaly In communication. What is be? Assume a state? Turn into another thing, far different from the Previous version of yourself? Be concocts An idea of an abstract future. Is. Are. Be. Was. Been. It won’t matter much. I’ll be leaving you. You are an ******* You don’t seem like one — You are actually one. I am stating that as a fact. Pontificating, if you will. I am tired of your ********
