The New Intellectual

The problem faced
by the New Intellectual
is that in order
to change the world,
they need to change
the world to be heard.

It sounds like
circular reasoning,
but that's why it's
a constant challenge.

No one wants to
listen to the person
who has their own ideas.

Okay, maybe you could
tell me where to find them?

The problem is,
the New Intellectual
is in a state of
constant flux,
perpetual development.

Even if someone
were to notice,
what use would it
really be, and how
much would they
really notice?

I guess what I'm
really asking is,
does the New Intellectual
learn best by the trial
it takes to change
the world? Is it better
to change the world
than to let the world
change you?

Well, the New Intellectual
gets to ponder that, too...

We're in a period
that's beginning
to support the New Intellectual,
but we're not there yet.
