I Am Vitruvius

I'm a nondeterministic mechanist,
a gregarious misanthropist,
a pertinacious optimist,
and skeptical, but imaginative.

I'm arrogantly humble,
zoologically narcissistic,
a nonlinear dynamicist,
and an antejentacular curmudgeon.

I'm part owl, part wolf,
part bear, part beaver,
part Vulcan, and part imp;
modulo that, I'm human.

I'm a pragmatic individualist,
an adult child,
an inventive smithy,
and a borborygmic logophile.

I'm Pythagorean, not Platonist,
Millsian, not Benthamite;
Bugs Bunny is my favourite,
and I'm not retromingent.

I'm a republican minarchist,
betimes eudemonic,
formally functional,
and I eschew grotesques.

I'm a weak Stoic,
appreciative lactophile,
titrating neuro-ethanologist,
and I like the '48 MG TC.

I'm a risk-averse pipe smoker,
an exuberant introvert,
an amystical phenomenologist,
and a portable tympanist.

I'm a journey, not a destination,
I'm context sensitive,
and I enjoy omphaloskepsis,
but I prefer a plan.

I'm roughly exact,
a sententious axiologist,
an emotional empiricist,
and a sagacious iconoclast.
