JAMB - Literature In English (1986 - No. 44)

Much madness is divinest sense
To a discerning eye;
Much sense is starkest madness.
'This the majority
In this, as all, prevails.
Assent, and you are sane;
Demur,-you're straightway dangerous,
And handled with a chain.
This poem reflects the
tyranny of the majority
approval of the majority factor
unhappiness that might is right
great love for mad poeple.
