The One and the Many



The cause of children must their fathers be.
If children with no parents make no sense
Indeedin brief, for one and one make three−,
Explain: how can with cause the world dispense?
Now numbers: man and woman make a third,
We know that parents with no sons are none;
But two, or three, are, absent one, absurd,
And even thousands cease if there's no one.
If parents got our parents and so on,
If one and one is two, plus one prolongs,
If causes ever caused by causes spawn,
Then God is One and we the many prongs.
   Though true that God can make small sense at best,
   Who cares? for He gives sense to all the rest.

o René Mussum ficou muito bom! tive essa idéia há alguns anos mas nunca tiver disposição pra realizar. Seria possível conseguir a imagem em definição maior e sem a frase (estou pensando numa camiseta com 'mojito' no lugar de 'cogito'. Abraços.
