THE POWER OF KNOWLEDGE
Once, by Francis Bacon, was said that knowledge is power. An axiom of high repute differs not from this. But gliding in the precincts of another perspective wherein, as a glinting metaphor for scummy ignorance, in listlessness, I languish, one sees as mere weakness, dormant and passive knowledge hence to man and other colossal and microscopic in dwellers of the hewn universe, no use is it. In this respect, knowledge is power only when diligently and positively is it utilized in the development of man’s environment, as well as the advancement of the dire humanity to empirical standards, economic flower and social glories thereby giving ataraxy and matchless beatitude to the soul of man. And what roars then not in diminuendo never is the antithesis of superior and excellent knowledge resolutely acquired within the superlative-fantabulous palace of logic for boundless purposes in this ever techno-scientific-economic universe of savvy Homoeconomicuses and sapient Homo sapiens.
THIS WAS WRITTEN BY CHINYERE CHINASA IJENDU, a poet.
