An Agreement Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

An Agreement



That agreement was reached between me and him About hiring me for a certain job at a certain time, It was totally unfair for me, but It was a victory for him, This was an oral agreement between me and him, I accepted this agreement, not for his sake, but For the sake of our friendship, I was an honest man, but He was a cunning man, I signed that agreement only with my oral words And I am a man who keeps his promise anytime, Everyone who heard about that agreement felt bad about me, but I insisted on the ' okay' word because I thought sales would increase At that time, Hopelessly things went bad and no more customers came to buy anything From that store, The problem was with the owner because kept the same stuffs without Increasing any new new stuffs, so The customers got tired with that situations and went to buy their Things from other stores, He felt that I was not okay, so He told me about it, We got in a dispute for seconds and I gave the store's key, then He tranquilized me that he needed me to fix the agreement between me And him, Days are passing and still we have the same agreement, It's all that his imminent problem, He only does not know what do with his whole situation, I don't know if all stores' owners or employers have the same situation, I doubt it, Really I doubt it! ......................................................................
