Quatrain of No Blank Slate

No Blank Slate - no sir

Do not think life starts out as
a blank slate when
you are
born,

This is a misnomer, half of
what you know has
already taken
form.

You cry, you poop, you wiggle
around as if sunlight
burned
forever,

Yes, you will learn, and remember,
but what you are, from the
beginning, is more
awesome and
clever.
