THE BARD'S "PRIORITIES"

Priorities

Priorities have to be food and shelter,
Heat and health, not helter-skelter,
Not rushing around to party hard
Or relax in the sun on travel card.

Not dollars and cents, makes no sense -
Can’t eat construction, nor money immense
Though gives you the means to provide -
Those at food banks have nowhere to hide.

Donations to charity, won’t bring parity
Or provide for a future fixed with clarity.
Government funds to feed the skint
Needs be provided to prolong life’s stint.
