Go back to you're own country [writing task thirteen]

I believe it's hardly fair to blame
if they come for a better life,
upsticks and leave their family
to remedy their unemployed strife.

I too would leave a system
where there is no welfare state
and i'd work for pittance a day
to keep food on my plate.

I wouldn't want my children
to grow up and go without,
but we are far more concerned
by the nation's money going out

of a country so patriotic that
they don't celebrate their own saints day
and then complain when any other
nationalities get their own say.

"Go back to your own country"
a vocal tirade of abuse,
and use the fact it's where they were born
as a grounds and justifying excuse.

So when you blame them for taking
all 'our' work and jobs,
instead see them as actually trying
to be less like you benefit slobs.
