Tradition is just like one-way traffic over here, <br />And you can't change the minds of the people around; <br />For their lives are programmed like a robot. <br /> <br />The law is very difficult for them to obey, <br />And it is all about a different culture and different people; <br />But their lives are always programmed like robots. <br /> <br />The tradition over here is very strange to me! <br />And you can't change the very minds of these people; <br />But at times, it is just like broken pottery in the hands.<br /><br />Edward Kofi Louis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tradition-10/
