To Ask Or Not To Ask? Poem by James Hart

To Ask Or Not To Ask?



It is better to give than to receive, they say
It is humbler to receive than to give, I say

Disabled through illness,
Social Security have given me a lot
Access to Work a big lot
My own Diocese quite a lot
I have received and received and received
Because I have asked and asked and asked

Does it make me a sponger, to ask?
No, comes the reply
You’ve already paid for it in your taxes
But it remains true
Those who can best
Manage the system fare the best.
