Poems
6d
Lurching through the long grass.
They'll have a ceremony and that'll be the end of me and then they'll forget me and go about their business.
They're all the same
they put your name on the payroll
and think you'll roll over,
pull over and stop the world
I'm getting out and then they'll
have a ceremony
do you get the gist?
you'll be missed until a new employee arrives
but that lot will survive whatever happens
and whatever happens, is not my concern
I work, I earn
and when they play me out of the game
I'll still be here or somewhere else.
