the pawn shops

Cash is low

The people will pawn valuables

They need cash to survive

During the MCO times

In desperation these people will go

The nearest pawn shops to mortgage valuables

As long as they can get cash to live by

Until MCO is finally lifted

Covid 19 draws out our weaknesses

In time of high economy we fail to save

We spend without planning for tomorrow

When downturn becomes bad we face our woes

The picture of long queues

Along the corridor of pawnshops

It reflects the desperation of the people

Without regular incomes the hardship begins
