To
solve the riddle enslaving the world
School your mind in the fine art of logic;
No
method besides will conjure the clues.
The
cosmos concealed is cut and unfurled
By
disciples of proof; earthbound magic
Spies the truth behind the mystical ruse.
Unable to deal with Angel or Ghost--
Take a leaf from the good book of nature;
The
rational choice discarded by most,
Plain wisdom reveals the wonders that are.
Reject the unreal and you’ll travel far
Out
of the past and into the future.
With eyes alive to the words of Ayn Rand
A powerful tool
you hold in your hand.
