Enjoy! ******************** BRAIN WASH Wash that Brain! Scrub it up right! Then tuck it back in And close it up tight! We must keep their thoughts Under constant lock and key Or else, God Forbid! One may suddenly break free! People are not meant To dream on their own They must only aspire To that which they are shown Quick! A rebel thought Just broke through its chains Oh damn! We've lost another To loftier aims! Breaking free from the box Where it is now enclosed It soars to the sky, Then turns Looking back down below. As it surveys the scene Over which it now flies It comes to realize That its past was all lies Somebody else controlled Its width and its breadth Now that it Knows, To turn back would mean death. So ever higher it soars Joining with others of its kind Who've tasted of infinity And can no longer fit in small minds. * Wendy Tebay
