Travail

The most important person
to recognise your struggle
is the person that pulls you through

Even better the revelation
from the bitter evidence before you
it comes from the tortured soul within

Bolter

Posted in Miner on Oct 1, 2014 by Anthracite

I am a bolter
punching steel into the rock
pretty good at brattice work
and a king in the bath-house block

I’m flying in and flying out
a dry camp to stop the strife
the pay is bloody excellent
and keeps me free of the wife

I don’t know how long it’ll last
digging black gold from the ground
greenies are toothless tigers here
so I suppose I’ll stick around
