A Tear For The Worker (Part 3) Poem by Kingsley Egbukole
A Tear For The Worker (Part 3)
A big tear drop
For the hope
That keeps you on
And wasted times
And money on drinks
At the slightest promise
Of a rise in pay
The certificate
Of the learned
Is a source of pain
When remembered
And the uneducated
Has his fate resigned
It is the evidence
Of a dehumanised
And deprived generation
And the resilient hope
That has refused to die
(Saturday 18th December,1999,5.12pm)
