Knowkedge is King

Einstein said imagination was more important than knowledge
But dangling such intellectual bit of lofty smoke
Is like postulating that a baker’s fancy strokes
Overtake in importance the baker’s final thread
Like subordinating the bread to a desire for bread

It is true imagination travels the universe and time
But knowledge is here and now useful in its prime
Knowledge is the reward for wayward imagination
Imagination cannot trump knowledge or education
