The cat meows. I translate this as “All philosophy is critique of language.”—Anon Nemosky, Particle and Wave


Found in a Little Free Library box on Preston and Rugby avenues,

“Nemosky” forbids me to reproduce this sally.

I plead its brilliance and Fair Use!

If one can’t plagiarize, well, really, what’s the use?

What's more, I’ve noticed that poems about cats

Exceed all others in popularity.

This great Eliot, too, discovered in old age.

Why it should be so’s a riddle of our time,

Puzzling even the wan ghost of Wittgenstein.
