<div>
<i>"Drain", a name I was so-called</i></div>
<div>
<i>Made homeless with no shelter above me</i></div>
<div>
<i>Neglected without a cover on me</i></div>
<div>
<i>Nobody cares</i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>At times, I have garbage thrown on me</i></div>
<div>
<i>Choked with dry leaves and rubbish</i></div>
<div>
<i>Water moves with me and mosquitoes breed </i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
<i>Nasty I can be, sometimes, if somebody sticks </i></div>
<div>
<i>his or her legs onto me</i></div>
<div>
<i>Violence within erupts with no mercy</i></div>
<div>
<i>Possibly damages a limb or two with bruises and blood</i></div>
<div>
<i>Next day or two, you may imagine minced pork ( "bakkwa")</i></div>
<div>
<i>on someone's shin</i></div>
</div>
