How much you have seen
Where have you been
What have you done
What have you won
Bare hands, hard work
Clearing cleaning others dirt
No amount in pension
no car no mansion
Just me and my brush
Nothing urgent no rush
All my dreams got crushed
Long long time ago

May God have mercy on the working man. vw

Yes poetry is considered useless by most (we are searching for food and shelter and you write some painfully long words we need to read!!!) so we have to try extra hard to get attention ๐
