Musings: Education for All
What is education Without enlightenment Vain is knowledge That darkens the mind What is education Without conscience Vain is perspective That hardens the heart What is education Without culture Vain is tradition That clogs the wheel What is education Without virtue Vain is lesson That corrupts the mind What is education Without audience Vain is stage That omits the crowd What is education Without principle Vain is means That negates the end What is education Without thought Vain is practice That enslaves the mind What is education Without history Vain is parrot That ignores the past What is education Without wealth Vain is tutelage That impoverishes the rich What is education Without boundary Vain is nurture That deifies the mind What is education Without faith Vain is subject That weakens the strong What is education Without ancestry Vain is process That excludes the source ...
