I cannot express it: but surely you and everybody have a notion that there is, or should be, an existence of yours beyond you.

We have overcome the notion that mathematical truths have an existence independent and apart from our own minds. It is even strange to us that such a notion could ever have existed.

Just A Notion
Just a notion - that's all
Just a funny feeling deep inside
Aah, that you're out there waiting
You're not sure I'm alone
And you wonder if I'm occupied
Aah, so you're hesitating
Just a notion
That you'll be walking up to me in a while
And you smile and say: "Hello" and
We'll be dancing through the night
Knowing everything from there on must be right
Just a notion
But somehow I know I'm not wrong
There's something happening
And I just can't explain
If I try it's all in vain
Because it's
Just a notion - that's all
Just a feeling that you're watching me
Aah, every move I'm making
Am I reading your mind
'Cause it's almost like your touching me
Aah, there is no mistaking
Dancing through the night
Knowing everything from there on must be right
Just a notion
But somehow I know I'm not wrong
If it's our destiny
There's nothing we can do
And tonight is very special
It's the night for me and you
Just a notion - that's all
Just a funny feeling deep inside
Aah, that you're out there waiting
You're not sure I'm alone
And you wonder if I'm occupied
Aah, so you're hesitating
Just a notion - that's all
Just a funny feeling deep inside

Sometimes A Great Notion
Written by John Mellencamp
Never give an inch, that's what I say, son.
When it's too tough for everybody else,
Hell, it's just right for me.
Now, my lips are bleeding
From the selfish things that I've done,
And my heart it lies at the bottom of the ocean.
Sometimes a great notion...
Wanted to make love to my girl
In the backseat of my car.
So, I took her to the drive-in picture show.
So, I filled her up with
Lies and a strong love potion
And I'm sittin' here watching the movie alone.
Sometimes a great notion...
Sometimes the best plans
Have been known to go astray.
So, you better put your seatbelt on.
Just like your worst headache,
Well, a bad day don't go away.
And, you hit the ground running against your emotions.
Sometimes a great notion...
Sometimes a great notion...

Ostracized and Shunned
There are some still clinging onto delusions sent.
To prevent a reality for them is meant.
They should have been told a long time ago...
The truth of their existence,
Relied on myths and their indoctrinations...
To keep them afloat upon a sinking boat.
They've been told the blazing flames,
Have been ignited to express victory.
So many of them have come dressed in their best...
To express their loyalty.
And those ostracized and shunned look on.
Grateful they had been despised!
And not accepted like the others...
Suffering to maintain,
The fading of their 'normal' lives!

Ignorant people see life as either existence or non-existence, but wise men see it beyond both existence and non-existence to something that transcends them both; this is an observation of the Middle Way.

The Praises Of Their God
The praises of their God so many love to sing
But God 'twould seem to me is a symbolic thing
That the God fearing turn to for to cleanse them of sin
The people who dismiss the existence of any God within
Their God is way up there in the Kingdom in the sky
Where birds sing all year round and where winged angels fly
Above the Heaven hills their songs of praise to God they sing
Their God rules in the World of the eternal Spring
They believe in a different God to us the people who live next door
Their beliefs different to ours so them we will ignore
To the religion of the true God we surely do belong
And all of other faiths have surely got it wrong
The one who believes in the God within to them an infidel
One who is surely destined for an afterlife of hell.

He who proclaims the existence of the Infinite, and none can avoid it — accumulates in that affirmation more of the supernatural than is to be found in all the miracles of all the religions; for the notion of the Infinite presents that double character that forces itself upon us and yet is incomprehensible. When this notion seizes upon our understanding we can but kneel ... I see everywhere the inevitable expression of the Infinite in the world; through it the supernatural is at the bottom of every heart. The idea of God is a form of the idea of the Infinite. As long as the mystery of the infinite weighs on human thought, temples will be erected for the worship of the Infinite, whether God is called Brahma, Allah, Jehovah, or Jesus; and on the pavement of these temples, men will be seen kneeling, prostrated, annihilated by the thought of the Infinite.

The notion that we won the war against Iraq is like saying we won a war against Arizona. I mean, the fact of the matter is it's not that big of a country. Nobody, I don't think, had any notion that we would do anything but win it.

It's a poem thing
A poem is a thing to express your feelings,
A poem is a thing to express your rageing...
A poem is a thing to express your sadness,
A poem is a thing to express your madness...
A poem is a thing to express your heart,
A poem is a thing to express your art...
A poem is a thing to express your real self,
A poem is a thing to express your necessities that are more than art...
A poem is a thing to know,
A poem it a thing we all should and could know...
This is what a poem thing should show...

It is good to express a thing twice right at the outset and so to give it a right foot and also a left one. Truth can surely stand on one leg, but with two it will be able to walk and get around.

RHYME vs. PROSE
Surely, it’s okay to ponder n’ suppose
When trying to express heart n’ mind
To weigh the merits of rhyme n’ prose
To ensure that truth’s not left behind

Daddy Still Runs Your Show
Daddy surely did love you
In his own fashion that is
And surely he told you sometime?
Though in a manner quite strictly his
Daddy demanded perfection
And all that such entailed
And surely he meted out correction
With rectifications clearly detailed
Daddy was very successful
A man standing above other men
And surely his life was quite stressful
As he reminded you time and again
Daddy was hard to please
And why should you have found him other?
And surely you understood
Observing the secreted tears of your mother
Daddy set high the standard
And outlined the goals for your measure
And surely that inspired your need
To place accomplishment ahead of pleasure
Daddy still runs your show
Though he lives now but in your head
And surely your present behavior reflects
The cold way he toodled you off to your bed

The Philosopher’s True Scotsman
He was not a Scotsman
But the other himself
He cheated on his wife
In Berlin and Guelph.
No Scotsman would do such thing
Although once one did
Well, redefine the notion
No true Scotsman would, indeed.
He was not a Scotsman
But a foreigner in mist
He robbed banks often,
Just twice, he insists.
No Scotsman would do such thing
Although once one did
Well, redefine the notion
No true Scotsman would, indeed.
He was not a Scotsman
But an immigrant in town
Elected to office
Let his voters down.
No Scotsman would do such thing
Although once one did
Well, redefine the notion
No true Scotsman would, indeed.
