Mind Trap

Mind Trap

A Poem by E.J. Waling

Mind.
A malleable
thing.
Easily molded,
manipulated,
fooled.
Constructed.
Scaffolding
erected.
Materials
layered.
Sculpted
to design
specifications.
Desired results
programmed.
Controllable.
Group think.
Garbage in,
garbage out.
Minions
formed,
armies
to be.
Controllers
controlling
pulling
the strings.
Pushing
the levers.
Caveat emptor.
Time, place
thoughts
determined.
Free will
obliterated.
Garbage in
garbage out.
Stabilize.
Stabilize
perspective.
Look
both ways.
Question
everything.
Caveat emptor!
