drinking the kool aid

aren't we all drinking
someone's kool aid.

going along with the program,
because

it's easier to get along
and stay
than it is to leave,

to break free and see what
else is out there.

whether church, or the office,
the latest love
of your life.

the husband, the wife.
the politics of left, or right.

we drink up, and close our
eyes.

we're too weak, or fearful,
or weary
or all of the above
to venture out
and find new light.
