When people invoke
Nurture or culture
As primary cause,
They most often mean
Some other people
Made you as you are,
Your world as it is.
Culture crafted you;
People, some other
People, crafted you.
What people can do,
People can undo,
Goes one myth of cause
Crafted by culture,
That is, by people.
But what if that’s wrong?
What if culture’s real,
But people can’t change
Each other at all?
Why would culture tell?
Let people go on
Thinking of culture
As something people
Give other people
To mold who they will.
