the potholes on the road


The potholes on the road
It has been there for weeks
One party digs it up laying cables
The contractor never covers it properly

With heavy rainfall hitting the road
The potholes return once again
It barely a month since it was tarred
The potholes bid its welcome sign

The danger on the road
The motorists will face
The danger of an accident
Touch wood it hasn't happened

Two days ago the contractor came
With workers clearing the debris
Sweeping off the unused particles
Putting on a new coat of tar

Today there is a pothole
Slowly showing its glee
In time it will grow bigger
The checking hasn't done

The JKR officers
Don't they check the public roads?
When a job is done
Will they come and check?
