Why, Why, Why?
Socrates drank,
Hemlock sank,
Why, why, why?
More beheaded,
Was he hard-headed?
Why, why, why?
Galileo refused,
Was he confused?
Why, why, why?
Arc was char-coaled,
Couldn’t she be goaled?
Why, why, why?
X did not conform,
Was he ever firm?
Why, why, why?
The answer is short,
The answer is simple,
These could not be bought,
These could not be gainful,
To the majority they seem,
Extra ordinary yet painful,
So they were silenced,
By the brights among whom they lived in,
But were they silenced?
I know, do you?
