THE LOOK OF THE HUNTED

They have the look of the hunted

Despair showing for all to see

Upon each face

Backs bent with the wait they carry

Little hope left if any at all

Social security often referred to a the S S

The gestapo would be better used

'Cos many so employed

Say '' just obeying govermant orders ''

Just as did the gestapo said after Hitler

Was democratically elected in to power

The gestapo obeyed the orders of the govermant

As they can insure those in need get nowt

Those who are ill have wait and wait

For benefits

Some die waiting , well that saves the state

Money

People children go hungry

No jobs

The rich get richer the poor get poorer

The necessaries of life become luxury's

Such as food and whatnot's

Even making toast costly as the toaster

Cost so much to use

Profits being made at the expense

Of the poor

Some having to go on the rob

Others renting out their body's

To make ends meet often failing to do so

If this is life

Not surprising some chose the alternative

Dearest Ken,

Rave, rave against the machine.
You have taken the thoughts out my head.
I am too old and ill to fight back anymore.
Politicians are just out to make money, they do not care.
The MOD spends a fortune on useless projects which could have gone to the NHS.
There is a lot more I could rant about, but I think I will write a poem instead

Love
Blilith

The measure of a just society is how it cares for its most disadvantaged.
