Poetry: Existence

Existence


Some say "I think therefore I am"

but what of "I am therefore I think"?

Are all creatures lit by this fuse,

a smolder that ignites

the simplest of thoughts?

It may be as sapient as these words have to be.

But what if in the tiniest of minds

a light is shinning that we cannot see

a sudden realisation of the 'me', in he or she?

And that shows a strong resistance to type,

is that proof of their existence?

Or is it rhetoric and hype?
