Shame on You




Shame on you for being mean and spoiling peoples’ day,
showing such bad attitude after tourists pay.
You stormed across the floor to me as if it was a race,
not content with being firm, you glare right in my face.
Your manner was quite hostile as you snapped ‘No cameras here’
using a bad tone of voice, controlling me with fear.

You didn’t just inform me that no photos are allowed,
you reprimanded me as if I was a naughty child.
It was so demeaning, I was really quite put down,
and then you were sarcastic, which really made me frown.
Why couldn’t you just tell me of the policies in place,
what did you need to prove by showing such a nasty face?

It wasn’t very welcoming to be attacked this way,
it spoiled my enjoyment, I was having a nice day.
I feel that as a tourist I am really being used,
as after I have paid the fee, I’m just getting abused.
You won’t gain in the future, I won’t let you do this twice,
you would have got more custom, if you had been nice.
