Hold your head high,
so that it can be severed.

Walk in a straight line,
so your feet dissapear with one swath.

Respect your elders,
and watch them die before you.

Be kind to others,
so they remove your heart.

Have faith in god.
and die a slow demise.

A lot said here in just a few lines...very powerful statement. Sometimes the rules just don't seem worth the rewards, do they?

Hardly ever they truly seem worth the effort at the end.

Ok, this is one of my favorites of yours....Perhaps a more catching title is in order? Rules and consequences....sounds like a school flyer.
