UNINFORMED DECISIONS
Herded like sheep from class to class,
part of the social fibre of the brass,
we all just accept it as part of the norm,
this pattern that starts from the day we are born.
We do the best we can to simply survive,
there doesn't seem to be any help that's alive,
enormous trauma embraces these situations,
breaking mind, body, spirit and emotions.
No one knows how to make an escape,
when they try the chains rattle at the gate,
so traumatised, exhausted and depressed,
they're clutched in the claws of being distressed.
Then the day arrives when it's thrown in our face,
as we cringe and drown in all our disgrace,
we never really made an intentional choice,
just always followed the leading voice.
