David Chalmers: Fragments of consciousness

The New York Review of Books

Poetry 180

Counter


Never admit you lie

Never admit you lie. -- But I do.

Of course. Go on. --Well, you lie too, don’t you?

Yes. Go on. --Everyone lies, right?

Once more.  --What’s the point?

Fragment 1

There are lemons in the apple tree.   

(From a former student of mine at Casady School in Oklahoma City, whose name I have sadly forgotten. He wrote this as one of his fragments for a newly discovered presocratic philosopher. After more than 25 years, the fragment stills enchants me.)
