IN MATTERS OF JUDGEMENT
(breaking out of the knot-thought mess of Descartes)
It's what I do
Not what I say [that matters]
It's what I say
Not what I feel
It's what I feel
Not what I think
(what I think hardly matters)
What I do
Is what I am
And what I am
Is what I do
I do therefore I am
Lost in the "In-Between", a Midwestern Anglo-Saxon descendent searches for commonality and a sense of place in this post-modern, post-politically-correct, post-American dream, post-EVERYTHING Brave New World of a high-tech surveillance police state polarizing the ignorant masses into hypnotic apathy or zealous outrage as lobbyists and politicians trade away the remnant freedoms of America's citizens.

IN MATTERS OF JUDGEMENT
...wrote a poem on the way to work this morning ...simply dealing with the "definition of Self" conundrum as initiated by Descartes and his mind/body dualism and as answered by John MacMurray and as painfully experienced by every thinking Westerner ever since... it's simple but pure - but heck, i'm not a poet - so there. :)
