Most likely to be published later this summer of 2022, my 12th book entitled appropriately; Propositions, Problems & Poems on the Peculiar Human ABILITY to REASON, Singular Human RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover a slightly modified yet appropriate version of the 10th and 11th books...
PROPOSITION, PROBLEM & POEM No. 275
~ Various Final Thoughts ~
Poetry
is harmonious utilization of thought and language as much as logic the science
of sciences, thus empirical considerations, methodical categorizations, analytical
comparisons then logical conclusions inevitably lending towards observable constancies,
practical consistencies, applicable ethics or moralities, as well beautiful
even astonishing poetics.
With
that said, consider the below quote taken from the work Sic Et Non by Peter Abelard (1079-1142), as diligently stated by
the philosopher, logician, theologian, teacher, musician, composer, and poet.
Constant and frequent questioning is the first key to
wisdom... For through doubting we are led to inquire, and by inquiry we
perceive the truth.
Questioning
and doubting observably, logically, ethically oppose the fool's drone-like
acceptance of science, fact, truth or common good as though "in" or
"settled", foregone conclusively as often promulgated by empowered
institutions whether the 16th century Catholic Church, 17th
century Puritan Massachusetts, 18th century British Empire, 20th
century Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy and Communist Russia as well 20th/21st
century Centralist, Crony-Corporatist therefore Anti-Individualist,
Anti-Capitalist America.
Instead,
the pursuit of knowledge, logic, consistency, ethic, truth, discernment, wisdom
comes only by ceaseless study, endless ponder, tireless labor until one's last
breath. The same ends pursued by lesser effort leads unavoidably, inevitably to
ignorance, illogic, inconsistency, immorality, falsity, dullness and
foolishness.
Furthermore
as such, these are unavoidable dynamics or as some would call it, natural laws.
Success is not guaranteed but only possible per our willingness to fail upon
our willingness to labor. Likewise, to do right or to be moral is best
determined per our willingness to bear fully our own responsibilities and
risks, while constantly respecting, consistently regarding each and every
person's singular human right to consent or dissent on all matters. Do this
not, then success impossible thus failure ensued while immorality ensured.
As
already mentioned else implied in various statements, all politics are
discussions then implementations disguised by convenient, expedient and/or
benevolent terms, intellectualized as intriguing, alluring, endearing even
titillating isms, however achieved by the sufficient gathering and colluding of
the consented so to coerce the dissented. Imperatively as well axiomatically
the moral burden of proof rests on those who embrace their preferred form of
politics as something other than first covetousness followed by presumption
then arrogance and finally violence manifested as nothing more than force arbitrarily
legalized.
And
finally, it must be stated once again. There is one morality, one ethic, one
right, one ism (see Proposition, Problem & Poem No. 274), consequently all
other moralities, all other ethics, all other rights, all other isms must first
be mutually, unanimously consented hence the regard for the Singular Human
Right to Consent or Dissent on all matters, as determined and manifested by the
Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, else the entire affair immoral, unethical
even inhumane if forcefully imposed.

And so it goes per cigarette pouts, martini slurs o'er high-heel stirs
Seasoned terse withal usual curse, twice recited, thrice liken verse
Mid cornet and saxophone blown, blue and mauve notes so moaned
Heaving as bosom-tones, ear-suckled by hungry souls, each alone
Each lonely in self-made worlds, as perpetuated inwardly
towards
Moralized narcissism, benevolent selfishness per the lowing
discords
Centering on lack of observation, analysis, determination
along logic
So, inconsistencies, complexities aft’ covetous urges
as noble politics
---
Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
