Educated Illiterate

EDUCATED ILLITERATE
Tell me all what you know 
And I tell you what you can’t show
You are all but a logical myth
For you are of no good deed

All you care is to bag the degree
But where have you kept your pedigree
Tell me all what you can see
And i will tell you, you are as selfish as a bee

Can you ever be humane and not empirical?
Why are you so concerned and so not classical?
My question may sure sound so rhetorical
But is sure and always practical
