Pictures and Poems (3)

A new dawn on a new day, perhaps a little better than yesterday.

But it’s summer, young men want to fight, anything, anywhere to show they’re right!

I’ve got muscles and even a tattoo ‘d’yu see that copper – I hit him too’

You can’t arrest me! I’ve got to go home! Mum says dinner at six! She’ll be on my phone!

Spoke to an immigrant once, he seemed a nice chap, said they’d raped his sister and killed his dad.

But Jim sais they’re bad, taking our money so we gotta protest, sais it ain’t funny.

They’re in a hotel whilst Danny’s sleeping rough, he nicked money from his folks, for a dig, it’s tough!

Job Centre today, they knows I can’t work, bad back, stress and me dog to walk.

Perhaps tomorrow will be better, better than today, but really, deep down I believe in yesterday!
