I'M NOT A ROBOT!

My parents designed my days as I grew up
Teachers instilled their values in me at school
Friends suggested what was cool
and trashed what they thought wasn't
The government decides what I should have
and threatens to arrest me when I act contrary
The so-called developed world programs me
through my parents,
through my teachers,
through my friends,
and through my government.
The developed world programs parenting,
education, health, fashion, governance...
You name it.
I'm tried.
I'm not a robot....
I'm a rebel!!!
