Closed Conformity Poem by Parable Poetry

Teach,
so you can better conform.
Preach,
your knowledge to misinform.
Reach,
hold my hand till I die.
Leech,
drain my life till I'm dry.

History,
tell me selected interpretations.
Mandatory,
your way to my transformation.
Symphony,
revelation through medication.
Blasphamy,
one of many stipulations.

So educated.
You've been persuaded.
Your brain washed mind,
already signed.
Been clouded by you.
No need to try to.
You need a guide to.
You have been lied to.

So educated!
You've been persuaded.
Your brain washed mind,
already signed.
Colaborated!
Your thoughts are faded.
Closed off and gated.
You've been sedated.

Knowing only your piece of paper.
Believing only your piece of paper.
Relying on your piece of paper.
Living through your piece of paper.
Mind contained on your piece of paper.
Hopes and dreams are your piece of paper.
Don't break away from your piece of paper.
Better than me because your piece of paper.

Educated!
Under their control.
Manipulated!
Now they have your soul.
Educated!
Under their control.
Manipulated!
Now they have your soul.

So educated!
You've been persuaded.
Your brain washed mind,
already signed.
Colaborated!
Your thoughts are faded.
Closed off and gated.
You've been sedated.
