It Isn't Your Fault

It isn't your fault that systems have learned 

how to manipulate you with false beliefs. 

It isn't your fault that patriarchy has learned how to kill 

your brothers by making you their robots. 

It isn't your fault you vote for parties who promise wealth 

but only for those at the top when you thought for all. 

It isn't your fault that rulers have philosophers, marketers, strategists 

and weapons while you have only one vote. 

It isn't your fault the oppressors have learned all the tricks 

to keep you coming back for more. 

It isn't your fault that those given the privilege to choose 

life, invested only in control of a woman's body, 

while showing contempt for the needs of the beings

born from that body. 

It isn't your fault your heart has been broken so many times

it severed the link to your brain. 

It isn't your fault the highest public endeavour 

has been turned into a 30 second commercial.
