Siren

When the Siren Sounds
Return to your overcrowded homes
Do not question your orders
Unless you have an off-shore bank account
Unless you have a second or third home
Unless you own a Caribbean island
Do not question your orders
Do not misinterpret your instructions
Do not refer to last week's instructions
Do not keep copies of previous instructions
Do not question your orders
Do not ask for clarification
Do not ask for edification
Do not ask for education
Do not question your orders
Do not query the numbers
Do not look at the directors' bonuses
Do not probe the shareholders' dividends
Do not question your orders
Do not ask where your government is
Do not ask where the millionaires are
Do not ask where the promises went
Do not question your orders
Do not ask for whom the siren sounds, it sounds for thee
Pete Cardinal Cox
