A poem about fishermen losing their livelihood due due to a growth in industrialization.
Fishermen they live off a boat,
all their life they float, float, float.
No money to buy a coat,
or cook lamb, chicken or goat.

Misery fills their life with pain,
live they do in great disdain.
Yet they fish be it sun or rain,
and carry on with their lives so plain.

Damaged are our great coasts,
polluted by many evil ghosts.
Development is what they boast,
just leeches leeching off their hosts.
