Abstract

PHI 101: Aesthetics

Don Riggs

Drexel University

 

 

 

Hamburger! The blackboard has turned into hamburger!

The learned professor “would like to make the fine but essential distinction

between the ‘imagined’ and the ‘imaginational’ object,”

but he doesn't realize, re-reading his notes,

that the desks are now loaves, they are rising,

the blackboard’s a massive black sagging mattress of hamburger!

He clears his throat,

cleans his glasses.

Outside, the leaves of a dark bush

are poised in anticipation.
