Of Clever Tongues and Fickle Hearts
- The Vestibular Bard 12/2008

I’m a paradox of diction,
Ambiguity is my part,
A spurious self contradiction,
Of clever tongue and fickle heart.
Torn by endless competition,
The sly resolve of countless genes,
An insightful organism,
Whose ends justify their means...
Will I ever find the answer,
To life’s existential quiz?
Or perhaps I fear to speak it;

‘There is no ought, there only is’

Yo Vestibular Bard,

You said a mouthful there. You speak the truth.
