Housing Crisis

Not absent - still here!

‘Housing crisis’? ain’t no crisis: it’s a con.

Tent dwellers, car dwellers when I for one

Manage to live in a wealthy country….

Where renters pay so landlords don’t go hungry….

 

This is not me – I knew when and how to

Find a safe secure hole to get me through;

Plus a liability on the State,

With my pension provided on a plate.

 

Which is an echo from a liberal past,

No longer there for the young and outcast.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Done in a flash with a flush of anger after yet another item on the news. The way social norms and values have changed over the last 20 to 30 years fills me with loathing and disgust.
