Thanks to VB reader, Braveheart, for this heartfelt poem he composed yesterday, in response to comments left on VB about the proposed budget cuts. Ed
People of the Island unite
Stand shoulder, to shoulder
and keep up the fight
To get our services reinstated
and take back power from
those who’ve become hated
The right to work is all we crave
and be treated with respect
and not as a slave
It’s not only about job losses
though that is so unfair,
but more about our vulnerable class
And showing how we, truly care!
Our government fat cats
who are in power, you’re really a disgrace
just thinking about the coffers
And not our Island race!
So to all people Island wide
we really must unite,
for the future of our Island
Is definitely worth the fight!
