The Jobless Man

The jobless man 
Empty pocket 
Empty kitchen 
Empty plate 
Empty pot 
Empty Tommy 
Empty pulse

The Jobless man 
No money 
No food 
No home 
No social benefits
No state support fund
No basic life 

The jobless man
Dead system 
Corrupt government
Victim of a Brutal regime 
Failed politicians
Hopeless chances 
Damaged mind 
And now in the street hanging
Around as
The jobless man
