Poem
It was the end of the job a big do for everyone concerned they who were invited We were the last standing on the site today was our last day working got a big lump of money with a fat bonus thrown in for my loyalty It was held in the city center food and everything was laid on Stayed for a while had four beers ate loads of the best beef stuffed myself I had just worked twelve hours really felt very tired after a long day hailed a taxi as one always done when paid felt a lot safer as my brother was mugged three times in the underground ubhann I was done once dumped for dead jumped in the car just fell asleep exhausted next thing I remember him wakening me up shaking me quite hard done this trip hundreds of times Always landing at my door looking around not the strangest sights that meet my eyes he says I am home Almost having a heart attack he demands money for the fare I have not a clue were here is taking me then he starts grabbing for me saying if I do not get out he will get the police so I got out he tried to run over me could hear the sirens in the distance so I ran just because I was illegal in the country at the time now they are trying to do me nearly twenty years later on micky mouse charges brought up against me this is the only story I know he never dropped me home so I never paid him plain and simple in my eyes this is my sworn word in testimony if not in this life I will be smiling if you reach the gates have you felt the pain and suffering this has put my family through no one ever has luck in dis honesty
