The Art of Thinking

The Art of Thinking, is it truly lost? Well, all around the world we seem to beat All common sense to dust, doomed to repeat The same mistakes and pay the same old cost. We seem to wilfully erode our minds By drowning thought amidst a sea of dross Doled out by media like candy floss. When will we stop to think? Remove the blinds Impeding our potential to improve, To learn, to grow. Let's seek a higher state Where logic rules, and leaders captivate The masses with their intellect to prove Their worth. Alas, I fear ‘tis but a dream; A hope too vague and faded to be seen. February 26, 2016
