Sister pregnant at sixteen

Caribbean husband

Out of work

Has never worked

Already has coffee coloured kids

In two other towns


I am deeply in love

With the garage owners daughter

Who I intend to marry

When I am released

I am her bit of rough

She finds me dangerous


I do not stand a chance

If the truth be known

As my life has fractured

Irreparable damage

I do not have a future

I am not even twenty-three
