Vessel

A Poem by John Prophet

Vessel.
Empty.
Devoid
of knowledge.
No opinions.
Void of
ideas.
Empty
vessels 
filling.
Downloaded.
Vessel to
vessel
different.
Interchangeable.
End result
dependent.
What
flows
determines
product.
Narrative
driven.
Beliefs
installed.
End result
location
compelled.
Interchangeable.
Vessels
become
how
influenced,
formatted.
Location.
Accident
of birth.
Shapes,
molds,
chisels
who
we are,
become.
Born here
one thing.
Born there
someone
else.
Beliefs
download
by those
who came
before.
Thus
conflict,
friction
of results.
Blending
evolving.
Cogs
in the
machine.
