Sad joke on a marae response

Recently we read the poem Sad Joke On A Marae. It was about a maori man who was at a Marae, but he didn't grow up knowing a lot about his culture. Because of this, all the Maori he knew was Tehei mauri ora. From the poem you could tell he had been in jail, been in fights and spent a lot of time at the pub. I drew this picture because these are the feelings he felt; fear/desperation, anger, sadness.
