Reason Up

A fact, and a fact,

And another fact,

Reasons up to a first principle.

A principle,

And a principle, and another principle

Reasons up to an axiom.

An axiom,

And an axiom, and another axiom

Reasons up to a truth.

 

There are many facts,

Many principles,

Many axioms…

Even many truths…

 

But logic to a 21st century philosopher

Ends at a fact.

It never gets beyond it.

With that, it is actually what’s illogical.
