Many who say “Let everyone come” don’t understand the view
of those
Whose daily lives when they all arrive will very quickly be
in the thoes
Of major change, as those who come’ll be settled in the same
estates
As the poorer classes, rather than with the people protected
by large iron gates.
But it’s often those from wealthy homes, protected from the world
outside
Who speak in favour of welcoming all, and feel in that a
sense of pride
That they’re so liberal and keen to help, while never
offering to take
An asylum seeker into their home; to some their compassion
might seem a fake.
But if they had to share their block with people from a
different world
And watch the life they liked to lead being very steadily
unfurled,
It’s possible they’d change their minds, and feel like those
from council blocks
They much preferred their current state, and wanted no
incoming flocks
To change their lives and make them feel a stranger in their
own domain,
Which to them, would make them suffer major losses with little gain
