The Switching Yard

Materialism is no way out
of Cartesian dualism
It just turns backwards–
I am, therefore I think–
in an infinite regress
over well-trodden ground
 
The only way forward
is seeing that being is doing
and in doing so
I think, therefore I am
is finally resolved into
I think I can
 
Once we make this switch
the world to come
will be just over the hill
