What is the worst thing that can happen?
Aldo Gabbay 1964 (sap paulo)
What is the worst thing that can happen?
Is if I spend my money foolish
I will not be able to pay my rent
And also I could be evicted
From my Nursing Home
And be forced
To live in a men's
Shelter where
I will share a room
With 12 people
Also the next morning
At 9:00 am
I will have to go
And sign up
For a bed
If I don't do that
I won't have a bed to
Sleep at night
Also nobody
Is going to bailed me
Out
By lending me some
Money
Also I will have
To spend the night
Sleeping on the street
I think I would hate
That very much
Because I would
Not have also
Any dinner
And I also would starve
