Air Conditioned Unconditioning

7/18/07

Institutions are built for reasons
For purposes that serve our nation
Institutions of metal detectors
Plexiglas, bars, jail cells and guards
Institutions of fail or pass, yards of
DNA samples, stretched skin cells and cell phone bars
Teaching us conditioning us
Leading us toward a goal
Common to the greater good
Beating us until the message is properly relayed
And our small place is understood
How many leaders are made here?
How many remain that were able
To unravel what was untaught?
How many can see through walls, Walk differently
Perpendicular to the broadcasted thought?
Carefully conditioned us
Crafted carefully to create for them
Institutions of mental slavery
Start inside of their walls
Then for us repeats within
