Big Nickel Jail
Poem about Sudbury, Ontario, Canada
It's said by some
that the Big Nickel Mine
ran a jail for years
when there wasn't a fine.
There were hundreds of kids
whom their parents locked up
while they took their pictures
with an old tin cup.
Though they rattled the bars
and some did pout.
After just a few minutes
the parents let them out.
