What people read can shape their minds
Between book covers when they find
A clearly stated point of view
That tells them what they ought to do
Tall and short and old and young
Read Charles Bukowski, Carl Jung,
Oscar Wilde and Carl Sagan,
Lenin, Marx and Ronald Reagan
Writers in good stead and standing
Persuasive words to readers handing
Right or wrong folks draw conclusions
“Is life real or just illusion?”
A search for truth will often find
The answers hide between the lines
