Your Money or Your Life

poem by: Rhys Thomas
Written on Apr 16, 2020

Back in the days of the Highway men,
They used to say 'Your money or your life'
All that time, in the way back when
They would cause you trouble and strife
But today we have come to the brink
And our world is out of sync.

These are the days we realise
We all need to have supplies
We need to follow the rules
Instead of acting like fools
It's a sad state when money is worth more than life
So do us a favour, and stay inside

You are so right Rhys...common sense tells us to stay at home, unless it's to go out for essentials....some "people" don't want to believe there's a killer out there!....👍🏻...stay safe mate...
