The bigger the bag. The more the hurry.

The more the weight. The more the worry.

The bigger the bag. Dragged up the road.

The more the weight. The more the load.

Leaving home to another place.

Running out to somewhere safe.

Bombs and bullets. Rats on the loose.

Damp and debt and physical abuse.

Give me.

Handbags and clicking heels.

Taxi rides and evening meals.

Silky gloves and a stylish Mac

The only weight upon my back.

Give me.

Polished nails with shiny glitter.

Personal trainers to make me fitter.

Ankle socks and high heeled shoes.

Happy days not winter blues.
