No Weight On The Mind

It is true that knowledge is no weight on the mind
For those people who to learning are inclined
But having this said ignorance too can be bliss
One need not think too hard for the meaning in this
Yet of some highly educated people one does come to realize
On their attitude to things natural they are not very wise
Jobs that create massive amounts of carbon emissions they see as okay
They are not friends of our Earth Mother of them one can say
But then acquired knowledge and wisdom different in every way
And to the words of the wise respect few seem to pay
Those who promote major industry to Mother Earth cannot be a friend
A mere fact of life why otherwise pretend
And sad to say many of the well educated knowledgeable by name kind
On the side of the promoters of major industry you will find.
