Poem: when things come crashing down

Unexpected $2k bill
Or the wrong end of the stick?
Verbal abuse across the fence
Some folk treat others like pricks.

Gas cut threats, bills not paid
‘Cos some admin did it wrong.
They won’t admit it was their fault
It’s my fault all along.

Payment agreements? Fuck that.
‘Cos they are short of cash
So instead they send abuse
And expect it in a flash.

Think you can screw me over?
Then think again ‘my friend’.
I’ve already spoke to the police
So this is not the end.
