EDUCATING THE MISINFORMED(Galileo)
Folder:
JOURNAL #27 science under host arrest
a visionary shushed
with surrounding ignorance
at Copernicus's level
Galileo perplexed
and suffered for his star
a place to calculate
more than mere idle guess
a new Pope
fair minded fan to his view
more lenient upon the religious
shelf
gave grace and speed to the before
so bitterly taken hypotheses
and Galileo rose
to his science with proof
Daughter of purity
bless thy father
with just a little focus
away from
his first favorite vanity
Fame................
