*To Michel Foucault
Meanwhile we were imposed to write on the subject of
'Which one is better: Knowledge or Wealth? '
Thanks to their wealth they sent their offspring to accomplish knowledge;
And their offspring, thanks to their knowledge, accumulate fortune,
And their descendants, thanks to their power, hold all of the seats.
We have not been allowed to finish our composition on the subject yet,
And neither will our progeny
And their descendants will not have either.
