WHO WHAT ARE WE? WHY ARE WE?
When we first emerge from our moutherWe are it is said a blank canvas
page , slate
In need of a voice , with no voice
Some say we are preprogrammed
The family , parent , siblings
Both , one , all or none
Trained , educate , conditioning
Gender , preference , pigment
Enviroment , where we live
Events , small and great
Friends , lovers , none
Weighed down by wealth , dragged down
by poverty
World , local events news , lack of
Religion or non
Excepted , rejected
Health , wealth
Schooling or none
Friends good , bad , none
Love , hate , likes , dislikes
Work no work
Food , to much, none
War , peace , worries , or none
Hope's expectations , none
All of the above and more
Hopes , expectations
Write , paint , draw , upon
Looks appealing or not
The slate , canvas , page
Creating the self.
