Nanny Taste
Why am I told how to breathe,
how to cook the perfect chicken,
the films I should watch or the music to listen?
Apparently we have favourite lines,
colours, patterns and pastels too,
that should cover my chimney breast anew.
Why am I told what I should read,
Who I should vote for or say I should do more?
Air fresheners optimised!
Humidified, rarefied my mind stupefied!
Why do I need to be told what to like?
