Being and Non-being

Is existence corporeal or incorporeal?

Does existence precede

Or succeed essence?

Existentialist Sartre says –

” Existence precedes essence “.

Then,the existence of my departed soul

Reasonably irrelevant.

If truth is temporal,and relative

Then,in the context of life and existence

Why would it be relevant?

“Sensory experience is the basis

Of knowledge that finds truth”

As said the Empiricists Berkeley

And others.

Hearing this my passe wife cried

As she is inevitably irrelevant now!

Similarly irrelevant spiritual values

And moral categories – humanity,

Nobility and honesty,

The forms of truth, goodness and beauty.

But life and the world practically exist

In the overall standard of truth,

Goodness, and beauty,where

Youth and past-youth emerge

As the shape of aesthetic feelings

In the context of generosity.

It is only a variation in the feeling;

A particular feeling of existentialism

In the same essence, my lover

In fact, remains truly existent.

Therefore, even in this old age,

I love my wife.
