The mind is endless space
So much room for so many ideas
The phrase "open-minded"
Is a wonderful phrase indeed
To open that infinite space
And to accept knowledge, opinions
And other things
Things you can not simply get
By yourself
So now, you must agree with me
When I say that the phrase
"Small-minded"
Is incorrect and impossible
The only correct phrase
For the meaning of
"small-mindedness"
Would be "close-mindedness"
No one has a small mind
They just refuse to fill up
The humongous space they have
They want to believe
That they have all the knowledge
That they'll ever need.
That, of course, is impossible
And irrational.
But These people are not
Stupid,
Or dumb,
Or stubborn,
**They were simply taught wrong
