Naivety

Thinking about how badly people get manipulated sometimes, without even realising it. 

I write what I want on

a post-it note; and

Then stick it on your head.

And magically you come to ‘life’,

I’ll label you till your death

A self-fulfilling prophecy:

Your naivety will feed me well,

I’ll amend you,  and I’ll shape you

In your consensual cell.

Yes I will imprison you!

and you will never know.

Naivety is a dangerous glee,

So ensure your mind does grow
