Is The Artist
or The Scientist
the celebrated one
among our tribe..
for all the boons
he brings..
the bearer of
our light.
The One
who brings to us
The Fire-making
sense.. out of sheer
nonsense and
absurdity of life.

Well, it depends
upon the sense
in which
thy question
may be posed..
Some problems
are too
down to earth
for poetry..
their cure is prose.

The syntax
differs between
languages..
but underlying
Logos works
unknowably
the same.
Whether we’re dealing
with the matters
of The Heart
or of The Brain.

Whether the matter
doesn’t matter
never mind.
Two faces of
the same old
and unsolvable
enigma..
when your angle
is outside.
But then,
whichever way
you spin it
still the outcome
looks the same.

I think The Artist
is the celebrated one
among our tribe..
today.
