THE PAWNBROKER' S SHOP

The Pawnbroker's shop is awash with items for sale

His existence is an outlet for those in desperate need

For it is here that I was able to be ultimately freed

And with much appreciation I live to tell my tale.

Hunger is the ultimate catalyst for setting foot

Into this palatial palace from which help is at hand

And ultimately make the interior so royally grand

While shillings into outreached hands were put.

Without such places how would we exist

With no assistance from the rich and mighty

Therefore, I beg, please do no take so lightly

The lofty importance of such in our midst.
