Chains, like snakes, seem to be able to mesmerise men

| Chain Play by Dominic Ford |
They seem to make them want to undress and feel the metal against their skin .....
.....to undo their jeans and let them slide downwards ......
.....and even to shed those garments that cloak their most secret desires.
No wonder some accept the invitation to be chained and inducted.
The Master's steel collar and cuffs will tame this muscular lad.
The combo allows him some freedom to move his limbs
but it's a restraint that weighs him down, so he cannot escape
and that helps to ensure he gives his total respect.
His compliance is rewarded with encouraging touches
and looks that give him something to look forward to.

(who clearly also knows the dominating power of chains)
A good Master will instigate a proper training regime to counteracts the effects of prolonged restraint.
The weight of the chains is beneficial in developing a healthy body and an attractive physique.
It also hinders the subject and reminds him of his chosen role.
A cross country run in chains and fetters develops new skills and muscles
and creates a fleeting, illusion that escape is a possibility if he wants to.
I've always admired this image which I originally found on 'MrS', but I've never been able to find the original picture. I have found equivalent poses, but they don't have the same sense of awkwardness, despair and sheer desirability that this picture seems to convey.

Spirited, younger men may find it hard to adjust to the tough regime.
They may cheek their new Master, like they did their parents.
A tape gag demonstrates they must speak only when allowed to.
It's crude simplicity puts them firmly in their place as novices.
They are not yet qualified for metal-based chastisement.
The cheekiest of novices may find his cheeks parted, by a ride on 'The Wedge'.
His lightness of frame would normally spare him much of the usual discomfort*,
but his bulky irons and chains outweigh and annul that advantage.
He can use his hands for support, but they will soon tire and weaken.
The Master supervises him learning his lesson.
It doesn't usually take very long for the penny to drop.

For an older man to submit is harder, even when he's here by choice.
It questions his manhood, though he knows that is the very reason he has been chosen.
The heavy wall chains and thick leather jock with padlock (given him by his Master)
Shows him he is prized and valued - but presently being saved for future enjoyment.
An early release suddenly seems unlikely.
There may be times of deprivation, squalor and much frustrastion ahead.
He must learn the ways expected of him and what he will get in return.
The gifts of new outfits are unexpected and make him feel tearful.
But unknown, new experiences will follow and that makes him fearful.
It was the glamour of total, naked enchainment that lured him,
the embrace of the snake.
The constraint of his newly acquired strength
is not without struggle and anxieties.
But finally the day comes when he reaches the sweaty pinnacle

The day when he stands chained, naked and helpless
presented to the mystical snake!
Please Sir, may I go home now?
