I sit in a mcdonalds, the children so happy, one family the child is crying over not getting the toy for his happy meal, i am told this is a bad thing, that the child is spoiled and shall be punished for not fitting into the facade of perfection that the rest of the orderly families display.
Another sip of koolaid please
I stand in a church mass singing hymns, everyone so happy, so collective, drinking up every word the preacher has to spew, slaves to an ideal of divine justice and reward, I spot , a child , reading a comic book instaed of the hymnal, or the bible, i am told this child is damned , that the child is not saved and does not know the lord or god, and that he shall be punished for not fitting into the facade of the ideal christian , that the rest of the members of the congregation display
Another sip of koolaid please
I lay my head down in class, the teacher is lecturing us about sexual abstinence, some students are being unruly , making vulgar and obscene gestures and doodles , i am told they are whores, or sluts and will die of HIV or AIDS, or get pregnant or get someone else pregnant before they are 19 , that their sexual vices are wrong, not just on a christian level but on a society level, that their punishment shall be whatever mishaps come from their sexual activities, and that it always ends like this, unlike the abstinent ones who are pure and have self control or so the teachers say that is what they display
Another sip of koolaid please
I sit in my living room, watching the president of the United States SPEW HATRED ,after being attacked, that we should all rally together, under our nations banner, that they are the enemy , that anyone that does not conform to the AMERICAN IDEAL OF A PERFECT COUNTRY IS WRONG, i am told we are simply sending troops over seas to protect our country . when in reality we are killing off our own soldiers as well as the enemies, in the name of converting them to our CULT OF PSUEDO DEMOCRACY . i am told this is the way things are to be,
Another sip of koolaid please
I sob in my bedroom, my best friend has just committed suicide, after being raped and impregnated, i am told she was too weak and will burn in hell for her "mortal sin" , that any strong person would keep fighting on and live their lives for themselves and that suicide is for the weak and desperate , that they are pathetic and shall be punished by almighty god for not being able to withstand his tests of faith.
Another sip of koolaid please
I slump, in my seat , numb from all the koolaid, drinking in all the indoctranation i have suffered and heard
Would you like a sip of koolaid?
