Defective Machines

Folder:

We are all machines
coming out of the factory
defective.

 

Human nature is our disease.

 

Broken,
we cannot fix ourselves.

 

We have no control over our flaws;
they are a part of us.

 

Our character traits
engrained in our beings
like rings in a tree stump.

 

Rooted deep,
we grow crooked,
stunted by our carnality.

 

This is a recall;
this is admission of our failures,
our shortcomings.

 

And that's the first step.
