Author Note: A Freeform poem. With this type of poetry no strict meter or rhyme is used. Look for the bonus poem below this one.

Morals we're taught are basic human emotions.
But our conscience appears to be influenced externally.
Morality alters with time and place.
It's suppossed to be simple; choosing right from wrong.
But who is distinguishing proper from the improper?
Surely morality is just a sense of duty.
A mind control trick of society!

Raising a few eye brows this one. Let me know your thoughts either way. Just for a little fun the poem below written in another format. I wonder if you recognise which.

Comments and/or votes truly are appreciated.

Morals are basic human emotions, taught we are.
To be influenced externally our conscience does appear.
With time and place morality alters, it does.
Supposed to be simple, choosing right from wrong is. Yeessss
Distinguishing proper from the improper, who is? Hhmmm
Sense of duty, morality could be.
Mind control trick of society, it is! Yesss
