Cleverness, I suspect
does not reflect, intelligence
In the midst of argument
Is what you missed
Really what I meant
How cleverly you defend
Yourself from all that is good for you
What you believe in, so often depends
On what you want to be good for you
The lungs that fill with ignorance
Will exhale disobediance
Will our dispute, over what is right
Always generate, more heat than light?
How cleverly you defend
Yourself from all that is good for you
What you believe in, so often depends
On what you want to be good for you
