help solve one of philosophy's greatest questions: why are you not eating a brownie?
do brownies exist? are they tangible phenomenon? can you quantify them? why aren't you eating one?!

“brownie”?

I would say "brownies" exist objectively. The concept "brownie" may exist to one person, while it may not to another. A child who has been living in a remote village in a remote land in a remote part of the world would not have heard of a "brownie". However, your average American citizen would probably have heard of a "brownie". What is a brownie? A feeling, an object, a definition? Anything you imagine.

Brownies are tangible on a metaphysical scale, so everybody experiences a "brownie" differently. A brownie is an un-quantifiable non-physical yet tangible object.

By including a quantity in your prompt, you generalize and classify the concept of "brownie", which is incredibly rude to those whose ideals do not align with yours.

You should be ashamed.

p.s. not rlly I love brownies so much I want one right now but I cant because I'm in class

ωκεανός

Secret siren lover

Retire to your ocean cover

Run from the sparks

Run from your heart

Never to return

Love's scorching burn

guys message me poem ideas lol

Lost in an entrapment of paths,

The weary soldier stumbles home

From above the gods laugh,

For soon he will be but bone

time

"Time. There is a lot of time in the world, minutes, hours, seconds,.."

"But we never have time for the things we want to say,. "

a prompt

Working all day

Sleepless nights

A windswept ocean bay

Tranquil as light

Drowning in the waves

The human man goes under

For the solemn path he paves

Drags him asunder

A brief moment of rest

The sound of a kingbird's song

Nature's musical rest

A moment that cannot prolong

Back to work it is

Repititive motion

Never to escape

The pull of the ocean

What went wrong?

That starry night

Don't prolong

The bluebird's flight

A beautiful day

Faded to twilight night

Nothing can stay

In the light

For the heart once strong

Shattered at dawn

This was Difficult :l

The grains of the wheat, as coarse as sand

Are ground into flour, the sustenance of man

Dough as thick as a blanket is rolled out

Certain to satiate, without a doubt

Thrown in the oven, the tray burrs with heat

The shades of pastry, puffing into something good to eat

As a wave of heat puffs out from the oven like an explosion

It emerges, then gets brushed with a thick edible buttery lotion

Periwinkle flower is placed ever so meticulously

On this pastry that is molecularly

The best tasting in all the land

Beauty?
Try to describe intellectual beauty, in poetry or prose. Not simply something that is beautiful, but the essence of beauty or the quality itself.

There you stand by the fire

With an open hand

Heart song tuned like a lyre

Flows through you like sand

The mind, the body are strong in you

The sheltered heart and the closed eyes unfold

For you draw all near to you

Preaching the things you behold

So teach me your ways, teach me how to heal

Your mind alone, I wish I could steal

This makes me weak

The desire to fix and tweak

You never show your faults to me or others

So nobody thinks, nobody will ever discover

The pain you go through that hides deep in you

I hope to learn how to control it

For I wish that I were harmony

So I could bring you to the heavenly

Sun-clad gates of peace and love
