Get Get No Want; Want Want No Get

1. Love

He pursues her ceaselessly with pure love

She seeks love in another

That she desires pursues another

Get Get No Want

Want Want No Get

2.Abroad

Some found their desires on the snow side

But miss the warmth of the motherland

And the baking of the sun

Said the migrant

Those who never pay for tan

Seek desires in sub-zeros Decembers

Not minding jingle bells alone

Responded his brother

Get Get No Want

Want Want No Get

They both said before the call dropped

3. Work

Unblemished fine

Silver spooned

Ivy leagued schooled

Soiled only by attitude

Paid to choose work

Rewarded to hold job

Scar hardened

Many battles fought

Struggle school

Multi-skilled

Applies for work year-in year-out

Never a job, even any work.

Get Get No Want

Want Want No Get

4. Sweet Mother

I made your favourite

Eat it, it’s yours

I did your laundry

O it was you who ruined them

I cleaned your room

Now I can’t find anything

Every expression of care, love and affection

Met with disdain, detest & rebuttals

It was a replay of them

Only now they wished another chance to

Thank their sweet mother

Get Get No Want

Want Want No Get

5. Childless

Fruit of the womb

Taken for granted by many

Many left in the dump

Many raised as dumps

The seedless remains on knees

Beseeching, pleading, praying

That they too water a seed

Get Get No Want

Want Want No Get
