Point of view poetry....Philosophy is for the weak willed !


PHILOSOPHY IS FOR THE ‘WEAK-WILLED’








The lust for experimenting is a luxury
That only a weak-willed person can enjoy
as one who has a strong determination and a head
that is free from conflicts ,would only be indulging
In the necessities of compromise !

(If you are confused then you are possibly a thinker
as only a thinker is liable to get mixed up...)

Philosophy, much different from what is normally believed,
Is a product of emotions ; not of intellect !

To take an orange, peel it, and squeeze the juice
.....is no philosophy, it is a skill
Any strong-willed person can learn…

But to look at orange seeds as well, not just to throw them
....and being tempted to grow more oranges….
Is a childishness only a visionary can perform !!!
