Stuck Between the Pages

I heard the tall tales
from the so-called sages

I ate the honey and drank the milk
as I turned the pages

Indoctrination was their secret aim
be filled, My Child with

our truths . . .
not yours . . .

that is our claim to fame
you know the game

forget your
name
we have no shame
and in the end
you’ll be to blame

you’re just the same
as all of the other junkies
waiting to be fed and led

down the path of destruction
like lambs to the slaughter
and stuck between the pages

of seduction
a sweet abduction . . .
