Sad joke on a Marae

Sad joke on a marae, In English this week we read a poem called sad joke on a marae by Apirana Taylor. It is about a Man who didn't have the best childhood and wasn't treated right, The only maori he knew was Tehei Mauriora.

In the text he says his pepeha in English, in the pepeha he says the pub is my marae. that is why I drew a pub.
