Poem

A permanent fixture on the news 
over here on the BBC

Is the Refugee Crisis so much so
it may just as well be given it's own
individual segment 

And the general running theme throughout
is how we aren't seemingly doing enough
for them

Or treating them in the way or in the matter 
they are accustomed to or were expecting
due to according to their human rights

But given that they come  here uninvited 
without any form of official documentation
and as a country we are struggling to provide
for our own

And yes i know what I am about to say 
will be deemed by some as not being 
politically correct or unemphatic

But whatever happened to that little
thing called gratitude towards your host
and not complaining about everything
and everything and nothing being good
enough 

But hey then again I have to stop 
and remind myself 

They are all refugee's and asylum seekers

Wanting nothing more that just to flee 
political repression human rights abuse
and the war raging in Calais France 

And are willing to do whatever it takes
to escape and get here even if that means making the treacherous perilous 
23 mile journey across the channel to
England in a rubber dinge

And put not only their own lives in danger
but their children's lives at risk as well for 
want of a better life 

And how bad must thing's be in
Calais France if none of them even 
wanted or wished to stay

But it must have been worse than 
whatever reason or place made them
escape or leave in the beginning 

And obviously England according to the
news accounts coming out reported by
the BBC 

Ain't much better either
