Social Conditioning From Earliest Age Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

we care condition
our children
from earliest age

with sense perception

a baby behind tiny bars
or inescapable
walls of a bassinet cot

walls of a prison cot?

taken out put
back at our own
convenience

or lifted up with love?

time passes feeds
nappy changes
baths powders held

in loves welcome or?

a toddler behind bars
or walls of a play pen
a toddler given free range

conditioning individuality to conform

to condition to rules
social norms of society
control imposed for

parental convenience as

social acceptance
is imposed upon
unique individuality

constrained modeled into conformity

or control imposed
only for safety assurances
huge freedom given

to nurture grow confidence excel
