Affluent and Destitute

[monkeyandhead]

Just two little poems/segments I created in a story I had to make in English.

"Fortunate is the ink that saved his life,​

like a tatoo on his heart."
​

--------------------------------------------------

"Unfortunate is the one who took his life,

karma's only mistake is not stopping what's given."​

I...don't have anything to say about this.
My mind is baffled from this.

Could you explain some things to me?

Well it's mainly about modern racism. You see in the story there was a white man who was in prison for twenty years, biker type bloke, who ends up getting through life because his uncle has links and so the white guy gets the job of an aboriginal (Australia) man who has been earning the company a lot of profit, and the companies excuse is "we need to cut pay"

Hopefully that explained a few things for you :)

Hmm...I may want to read this story.
Has it been posted anywhere, or is it something you like to keep private?

I can post it up if you want, I'll do it when I get back from school today.

Edit: The story has two parts to it, they are written upside down to each other, it would be best if you printed it out, or just edited it in word so you can read them one by one. Top story is the one about the white man, bottom is the one about the Aboriginal.

Here you go.

I couldn't really understand what you meant by those two verses, so I had to jump to the third post to understand. :P
I like the structure and depth of words. :D Good job!
