Democracy of Culture: I, Icon

Some people “culture” holding
Maintains far the others
Their “unculture” scolding,
Assuming peacock feathers.

I, being a scientist with skill,
Always was close to all
Trying to achieve their will
For democratic culture call.

I think no culture may ever be for few
And common language can be used
To carry beauty and love for true
While complex words are often abused.

Intuition and discovery are at hand
For everybody if stimulated well
Knowledge construction may be grand
If arrogant judgmental are sent to hell!
