My School is The School

So what are the schools of thought

where philosophy is taught?

People who attend such schools

must be incredible fools.

Our own philosophy grows

in a space above our nose.

Our brain is waiting up there

like a forlorn empty chair.

What it waits for is a mind

which understands what we find.

Blind faith is not in demand

which may tell us where we stand.

We make our philosophy.

Religious schools disagree.
