WHEN IGNORANCE IS BLISSEntry #492961
WHEN IGNORANCE IS BLISS



Trying to understand those
Who can’t be understood,
Is like cracking a hard nut.
Why thusly try we should?

Some speak compulsively and
Some do so with forethought.
Heeding the former, often,
With frustration is fraught.

We should learn to ignore that
Which is best left untouched.
Under the weight of folly,
Intelligence is crushed.

We must have discretion to
Not forget lesson this:
Why educate those for whom
Ignorance is but bliss?
