Samuel Selvon

When it have sun, it have sun. When it have rain, it have rain.

London is the place for me.

A feller could easily get lost in this big city.

Boy, it ain’t have no place like home.

You know, sometimes you get so lonely that it hits you in the guts like a physical pain.

In London, nobody business with you.

This is a lonely miserable city if you don’t know anybody.

You have to hustle to make a living.

London is a place where people are too busy to talk to you.

It have some people who like to suffer.

Everybody does hustle in London, no matter where they come from.

In this place, it like everybody fighting to get somewhere.
