The Double Bind Of Human Awareness

you are a free agent
you as a member of society
country, clan, and family
must love these entities
of which you are apart
but acceptable only
if the love is un-coerced
actions are acceptible
only if un-coerced
but coercion is omnipresent
the very definition of
social, familial, cultural
norms
