Dilemmas…

*

For over Two-Thousand years

Fine minds have

Pondered the problem

Of philosophical dualism.

*

The living soul

A quickening spirit.

*

This dilemma, perhaps, can

Best be approached by

Considering three questions.

*

Why,

Clean the house

Before a birth?

*

Why,

Tidy the house

Before a guest?

*

And what must have

occurred before one

Is able to

Do these things?
