The Price Of Literacy

THE PRICE OF LITERACY

"Ignorance is bliss"-- the inge'nue's famous last words--
Craftily dismissed as passe': "--That's only for the birds-"
The shrewd critic: lucrative is the assertive sophistry--
In a manipulative society, strike the right chemistry !

The poor naively believe that ignorance is not a curse; 
Under the dispensation,their state can be lot more worse:
Knowledge be the privy of the Master--the sop's the anodyne.
Status-Quo's the holy-grail: ergo, stigmatizing the rebels is fine ..
