Write a story or poem titled 'Chains'.
Chains
This is the chain of command, respect it
Disasters you weren’t told were possible? Expect it
The values we preach but dont practice? Reflect it
See someone threatening order? Confess it
You have a duty to your people!
You will work with us against evils!
You will remember to treat us as regal!
You will l now the road to utopia is not peaceful!
You are branded by your chains
You will make it so your fellow man’s the same
Cast them to the flames
Why do good when we can be so great?
Fight amongst each other! We’ll defend and supply
And reflect and deny
And eject and defile
Any false leaders you’ve left to defy
Stay chained until chains aren’t needed
You’ll have chained yourselves to the graves of the defeated
Respect the chain of command, respect your leaders
Once the red has dried, the grass will be greener
