The Paradox
Knowledge is power
Yet ignorance is bliss
From knowledge, some cower
And to ignorance kiss
Some call knowledge wisdom
But that cannot be true
Because it is by knowledge
That the ignorant are used
The ignorant fool, it is said,
Must take intellect
Because knowing in the head
Is for society's best
But too often, the knowing in head
Separates the heart behind wisdom
And so true wisdom is slaughtered, dead
And the image of knowledge has risen
To such a point that all aspire
To have that which makes society whole
All the long, tiresome while
Ignoring that they've made in themselves a hole
Ignoring...
So who's really ignorant?
Is it the one called "fool"?
Or the caller?
