Logic

My all-time hero is MisterSpock;

Not the doctor, but the trekker;

The science officer of the Enterprise.

Born of logic, freed offeelings,

Void of human fallacies.

No emotions evidenced

When gazing in his eyes.

Although his stoiccountenance

Was carried to extreme;

Too complex for us tounderstand,

The aspect of his character

Is simple in its form;

Pointing to the frailties inman.

 

All things must be logical;

Adhering just to facts.

Science forms the singularly

All-embracing tract.

 

Fortunately, Spock was not

Completely void of feeling.

Even though his training hid itwell.

His human half emerged andhelped

To guide in his decisions

Like Pavlov's dogs

Responding to the bell.

 

So, even though I do admire

This "simple logic"notion,

I wouldn't really want to be

Void of all emotion.
