Concrete Truths

The truth in concrete things
makes all things knowable.
"The chair has four legs."

Now that you mention it.
Yes, that is true.

"And all four legs will support 
both men and women equally."
How well-disposed this chair!
How free of prejudice!

How willing to try out
the complete stranger
when support is needed.
How altruistic is a chair!

And you see the evidence 
right here is front of your eyes.

How magnificent
to find the Unified Field 
Theory waiting and working; 
Science and Philosophy  One. 

All things fit our abstractions.
abetted by our language, our whimsical 
logic, our childhood stories with
happy endings

as long as confirmed by 
concrete reality.
