I could not be more irritated
by the angry bleatings
of men in green
indifferent from each its own
and night it goes on
till lights fade out
we mesh ourselves in
prison-barred doubly beds
sixteen they did stuff into
a single dorm room
and upon our day begins
fresh orders dished out
dutifully executed; thus we appease
the whims of a monstrosity
powered by bureaucratic authority
that we call national service

context: I'm a Singaporean currently serving my national service in army
