Pit

   I've   been robbed, used and abused

   I’ve been held up, held back and shut up

   I’ve been shouted at, shown the wrong way, lied to

   I’ve been tripped over, pushed over, leaned on, leant on

   I’ve been set up, walked on, run down

   I’ve been insulted and had to conform to things that didn’t appear the norm

I’ve heard many a sermon, yet I have never seen one

   I’ve been oppressed, depressed and suppressed

   I’ve lent money that proved quite ill—fated, it wasn’t even appreciate

     I’ve been foolish, yet I have endeavored not to be a fool

   I‘ve been inspected and demanded too

   I’ve been expected to, and misunderstood; 

I felt quite perplexed, I didn’t know what was coming next

   Yet in spite of all, I can and do state positively, I still hate them
