Before the sun rises

One man's breath shall come easy

And another's shall cease

And the moon will still float free

Free, and horridly dull.

Why is it surprising to think

Mankind may have importance?

I can grasp what happens

When a ball breaks a window

I cannot grasp what happens

When the choice of the throw is made

Dostoevsky, the great psychologist

Revealed mystery, not math

Newton, Einstein, etc.

Revealed causation

Revealed nothing

Revealed not even that

Why is it surprising to think?
