Sim-Simmel, who's got the key to society?
An unstable lock into a social reality
Some say creation-at-the-moment-of-delivery
His writing dissolves in the crucible of creativity
The man, a stranger in many ways
Understood the insight such a position would engage
But inevitably falling down into the pit of the common sage
The identity as elusive as the words on the page
Striving for a sociological view of phenomena
Is there any other way when you take history as the cusp
of understanding and an infinitely long road?
Lets begin the process and let Simmel’s magic unfold
Conflict, subordination, solidarity and exclusiveness
Examples of the forms that the man himself imbued to us
Residing within them is the content that we consider thus
transforming the facts and reaching clarity amidst the fuss
Arguably here we reach an impasse on the road
as the distinction between general and formal sociology is showed
But the irreducible category of a unity is bestowed,
upon us, by him, all adventurers on the road
