Critical Reasoning --- break ---

This reasoning is critical,
Fetch the doctor, I say,
This criticism is medical,
Fetch the nurse, I pray.

Carry out the tests,
Prod, poke and draw blood,
Do not tarry like fledglings in a nest,
Or pontificate like cows chewing cud.

We need to save poor reasoning,
Remove stat from the critical list,
Restore the solid grounding,
Behind reasoning's confusing mist.

Reasoning is coming around,
Soon be up and about,
Sense has been found,
An end to unwise doubt.
