    Poem Commentary

    This poem was written after I had the miss fortune of being un-employed.

    Private and Confidential

    Private and Cofidential,
    that`s what the letter`s say.
    Money short in pocket,
    small my meager earning`s.
    Not much my companie`s pay.


    Private and Confidential,
    utility bills I really hate.
    I have got to make my payment`s,
    getting to the payment date.
    Redemption for the services,
    my cheque`s must not be late.


    Private and Confidential,
    that`s what my banker`s state.
    Once more i read with worry, 
    they have raised the intrest rate.


    But still i make my payments,
    and overdraft deplore.
    The postman brings my letter`s,
    posted through the door.


    Private and Confidential,
    falling to my floor.
    A month has passed already,
    the bills arrive some more.


    Private and Confidential.
    Society with it`s nightmare,
    to the meager or the poor.
    Wondering what i can spare,
    private and confidential,
    it is less than it was befor.
