Bad Report About Place of Domicile

Here, general life is hideous,
All the well-paid jobs tedious,
Robbers determined to loot,
The Robbed determined to shoot.
You’re wasting time as you shout,
The Nice option: To get out!

One cannot beat Miguel’s heat,
Only beat timely retreat:
An idea minds don’t refuse:
The best way to bombs defuse…

Mine really has been daydreams
While trousers burst at their seams;
I used to like her egrets,
Now, with them full of regrets…

In me I see no Captain.
Where did I the rank obtain?
I don’t its hall-marks contain,
“Captain” I shouldn’t retain…
Who thinks his a go-getter 
In Miguel his Golgotha 

So, fast, I’m coming back home
I hope none has touched my foam
Also my bicycle ‘Chrome’
Of great help when I towns roam.
