SHAME ON A BROTHER!

Shame on a Brother who pledged his all
but commits the cardinal sin,
for he is not an asset to the organization,
the organization is an asset to him.

Shame on a Brother who does no work
to help his chapter build,
but sits in his blue room, with blue lights,
on his blue bed, drinking blue juice, wearing
his blue letters, he chills.

Shame on a Brother who shows no shame
and learns to live with the stigma,
Sigma taught him all he knows about time value,
now he has no time for Sigma.

Shame on a Brother who is a member, but not active
and does not realize what's at stake
for when too many Brothers lean on the shield,
the shield will eventually break.

Shame on a Brother for he is not a true Brother
when most needed, his pledging stopped.
There is no difference between an inactive Brother,
and another who pledged and dropped.
