Based on a personal experience of being de-professionalized after having to migrate from a third world culture to a first world country which is also part of the G8 nations.
Color me your Korea
Times daily pressboy.
Keri lang yan
That I have to undergo
This rite of passage
Of getting inked to have a local
Canadian experience.
I don’t intend to operate
Soon the paper snake,
But such is life
Like accomplishing a docket,
A list of things to do
( that, at least you should have)
Certain to me it is–
Should I get finished
Here stacking tabloids
And metros and magazines,
I will get over the skid
From newsprint to newsprint
And my history will be published
On the same plate negative
With the optimism I had
When I used to fold lips.
