I AM A LAUNDRY WORKER NOW!

I am a laundry worker now ,

Was in the army at 15 ,

For three months ,

I weren't very good ,

At soldiering ,

Been coal miner ,

Cleaned out trains ,

Looked in and cleaned out ,

Many a blocked toilet ,

Worked in many a factory ,

Cared for those in need ,

Worked in a store ,

Builders merchants to ,

Not much of a formal education ,

Left school at 15 ,

Scathed a living ,

Been out of work ,

Not very good at much , as my

Employment record shows,

Gone hungry ,

Some how savvied ,

With out turning to crime ,

I write a bit.

The Dyslexic Poet Ken D Williams
