Thought Is Not Meant for Thinking Alone

Scholars become vexed, and furious even
They shuffle through texts for something to believe in
And try to convince all their way is utmost
Divide their disciplines to make room to boast

And I, as student, find I'm never so torn
Am quick to dismiss every fashion and form
And while they profess, I just ask the big-heads
For logic behind missing the common threads

While logic and reason, the lifeblood of thinkers
Yet pride takes them prisoner, hook, line, and sinker
We spend several years learning manual styles
When each is the same with a different profile

Psychology or sociology... choose
But without each other, no possible views
Or Malcolm or Martin; DuBois or Washington
With two sides, surely lies a straight line between them

So why would astute men yet fail to be perfect
"Hitherto philosophers only interpret...
The point is the change..." you see, they lack purpose
With no exercise, knowledge just becomes surplus

Without focus, one can afford to have forums
Enlighten enlightened minds, go through decorum
As light through a prism, define the whole spectrum
And come up with names just to flatter each section

But, moreso than colors, the people need light
And with application, it's plain to see right
But not to seat right on some glorious throne
For thought is not meant for just thinking alone
