"Are You All Fools?

When I was telling you life's stark truth,

When I was explaining life's philosophy,

You tagged me "Preacher", "Son of God",

You locked me inside a temple.

When I was awestruck

With the possibilities of science,

With the immense powers of the mind,

You tagged it as "Taboo",

You shivered with fear,

You put out the flame of knowledge,

Dousing it with the darkness of superstition.

"Are you all fools ?"
