the bad hats

Georgetown Street Sign Penang Malaysia by les.butcher

Snatch thieves
And the economy woes
Desperate people
Desperate needs

Feeding the hunger
Some lazy to find work
Living on the hard earned money
Of honest people living

Some are drug addicts
Way beyond redemption
Finding victims to feed habits
The wastages of lives
The society feels the losses

So we must be careful
Full of alert on the streets
It happened to me years ago
In the cinema in Klang
Got 6 stitches on my stomach
When I made my police report
I got shouted at by a female police officer
It was my second time dealing with the police
Though through the years I met OCPDs and CPOs

I was the victim
Yet I got no sympathy
It became a talk in the village
The news travelled fast those years ago

Now of course I am always alert
Driving and walking on the streets
Time has not changed much to these years
We will live to tell our tales won't we?
