Cult Me Up Please

Feed me your stories
I will believe
For I am a good girl

Tell me how to behave
I will be compliant
A Stepford wife

Show me your ways
So that I may copy them
Throwing out all ideas of my own

Give me the missive I am to follow
Listen to me parrot words I do not understand
Reward me with stickers and bookmarks

Thank you very kindly!
I am so glad to be a part 
of your well-accepted cults

Interesting topic, Caren, I don't want to be pattern to anything, but as a child our parents and culture does.
