Rethinking Life

Uniforms…

uniforms
take away individuality
they are used
to remove the uniqueness
of those who are forced to wear them
to make everyone the same
like school children
or prisoners
they are also used to identify
people
their beliefs
or jobs
police
pilots
firepeople
chefs
medical personnel
priests
(rapists or otherwise)
and others
teens often dress alike
(casual uniforms)
to show what they are different
from the status quo
colors and adornments
added to the uniforms
can show status
or levels of position
those who refuse
to wear uniforms
are often labeled
rebels
evil
or bad
because they do not want
to be controlled
by others
and it pisses the others off
the military
wears uniforms
so they know who to kill
who to salute
and who’s in charge
uniforms
are used in many different ways
some good
some bad
something to think about
next time
you put one on
