Collective voices.....

I went to a concert last week and a group of us shorties, about 20 of us, got there early, found our pitch and waited for 3 hours, then just before the main act comes on some tall people steamed in through us and stood in our view…. the poem itself tells the rest…. off my chest now…. lol

I welcome critical reviews of my work…please bubble me if you have any constructive comments….

Collective voices..... belongs to the following groups:

Collectively the little people could see
Content and happy
Until the big people pushed in front blocking their view
The little people couldn’t see
Cross as can be
They spoke out in unity
Pushing in was just rude and naughty
The big people moved reluctantly

The moral being;
Big people can see over little people
Little people can’t see through big people
If you want a good view, wait in the queue
Get there early and take your pew

    thanks, it was definitely one of those ‘yeah’ moments… I didn’t need to speak out as there were those more than willing… it makes me smile now but we were all a little peeved at the time… concert was great… made better by the fact the view wasn’t competely blocked…

    I know… I went to a top footie match once, paid £50 for my ticket… had to ask a man to move, don’t mind paying that sort of money to watch the game, but the back of someones head…so not right! The joys of being a shortie!!!

    Don’t worry, some day some giants will get ahead of them and they will see their own mistakes. Life has a way of coming back to us and letting us know how the other world lives. Patience will fortell their futures, LOL Hope you enjoyed anyways. Great read~
