The Path to Critical Thinking

Is it the college major or the reading habit
That gives birth to the virtual rabbit
The one that gets pulled from a hat
By which to enable that

A dullard can reach the brink
Beyond which he's able to think
Making sense of the mysterious and complex
That had previously did his brain vex?

Pundits tend to glorify the U
Disregarding what it's apt to do
With the chase after the high GPA
Actually causing the brain to decay.

Montaigne preferred the company of peasants
Whose minds were unspoiled by pedants
So rather than push for the latest learning fashion
Ask what can fuel the mind's passion.
