Unlearning what has been learned--
the socialization and mind control
of our present day capitolist world
fueled by greed and desire of mammon--
telling us what is "cool" and "acceptable"
while soliciting our money and minds.

Unprogramming what has been programmed--
the disconnecting of our mind's embrace
with capitolist greed and deft marketing--
to dare not to be "cool" and "acceptable"--
to purchase with an independent mind
bent on quality of product and healthy lifestyle.

Unlearning and unprogramming our mindless obsession
with capitolism's view of commercial possession,
someone else's varied political views,
and the world according to the nightly news.

Let research and study of the facts
replace TV blurbs and fast facts
slanted by the media's buzz,
taking things out of context, because,
scandal and sensation sell--
making the true facts hard to tell.

Unlearning and unprogramming begins
where personal choice overrides TV's spin.
