On the pension
Last day of 2018
Received message from myGov
We have not received your papers
Concerning foreign pension
(Post Office problems)
So we shall cut your Australian pension
If you have any questions
Contact us on .....
Well fat chance
It's Sunday today!
Are pensioners not allowed Holidays
In this dystopian world of ours?
What about letting people
Enjoy , yes, that's a proper word,
Enjoy a period of grace
Around the holidays ,
You know A week between Christmas and New Year.
One would think that pensioners
Would be free of mental abuse
From Centrelink and its ilk
Once granted the pension.
Well, obviously not!
It's the second time
Within three months
Of being granted the pension
They're trying to suppress it.
The first time was
You have too much assets
Your pension has been cut
Turned out that a house
Sold ten years ago
Was part of the said assets.
It's mental abuse I say
Another waste of time
Dealing with the fuck-ups
Of automated Centrelink!
Just berate pensioners
So they end up giving up
Receiving the pension
Well, I know who I won't be voting for!
Happy New Year by the way!
