Philosophy Versus Poetry Poem by DM W

Philosophy boldly confronts
Life's prevailing orthodoxies.
O it torturously describes
The limits of human knowledge!
Whereas refined poetry, like
True religion, is concerned with
The unfolding of the soul.
It employs a lighter touch;
As its weaves its subtle magic.
In many ways, it is indeed
An endless search for the blissful
And the spiritual.That's why
I've discarded philosophy,
And put my trust in poetry.
