losers and winners

Losers and Winners

Polly’s pregnant again with her
third child, so that’s where our
tax money goes; sterilization,
I say. No wonder she’s like that,
her father, the last proletarian,
on the dole dreams of workers
brotherhood, ‘e hasn’t noticed
that the working class lost in
1997. We are all middle class
now except for migrant workers,
low paid women, and the likes
of Polly.
