All this time we spend in schools

from this week in February 1970  (I was 25)

All this time we spend in schools

learning to think, right?

But so many teachers,

so many in grammar schools, high schools

even colleges, we say, “Think along these lines,”

or, “What do you think of what he thought;

Ever think about this?”

Hell, we need to say, “Think of something

nobody ever thought of before.”  We

need to do that sometime.

That shouldn’t have to be said, right?

Some things are obvious in print

that never once make the action round.
