the back alleys

 

The back-alleys

Many will ignore

Thinking it isn't theirs

Until something happens


The back-alleys

Some set up cooking areas

Others plant greens

Others pile up rubbish


Everyone will see

The town council officers will ignore

No summons or written warning

Everything seems cool by the day


Until a fire breaks out

Until robbers climb up

Until firemen scold them

Everyone will start to open eyes


The back-yards

The untidy spaces

The houseowners don't see

It's the back alleys!

it's the push and pull game

 

It's the push and pull game

When assistance requires

The push for allocations flow

Until the desire result needed


Even within the coalition members

The critical members will pull off allocations

Though they are part of the ruling coalition

It had happened with Blue eye members


The push and pull game

The Blue eye suffers in internal strife

Members get fed up and left

The good leaders pull themselves out


Renaissance man should comprehend it

He was in opposition before

He would have recognized the monetary allocations needed

To service the constituency he represented


Renaissance man should allocate to all fairly

The members are voted by the people

Give them the allocations to assist in minor projects

Let the people feel needed

the moos quiet lately

 


The moos quiet lately

The friction in the opposition rank

By the crocodiles swagging tails

Crowing a lot of noise


The moos feel the hot wave

Burning faces afraid to say

The crocodiles treat them badly

As puppy love gone away


The moos can't say

The president on trial in court

The bad publicity isn't a good image

They hide it until have something to strike


The moos quiet lately

Will the moos stay with the pack?

Most former members registered with Hamz

The moos feel the weakened state now


the rain the haze stay

 

The rain can't pull the haze away

It makes the weather a bit clearer

In the afternoon the hot sun blazing

Even staying at home the heat soaring up


The plants leaves turn burned or brown

As if decay comes quickly in its lives

Even the ants can't stay in the open

Finding a cool place to hide and stay


The people may worry

About health issues and shortage of water

The haze on the mountain range

The smoking color painted on it


Sometimes it is to tell us

Life like the morning dews

Live with life enjoying while we can

Because when the sun rises the dews will be dried


PH survival hinges on reforms plan

 


Renaissance man has no choice

He can't bend it for the wolves

It is time he has to look at his own partners

There is no time for him to walk slowly


He has to run now

Age has slowed him down

Yet he has to hold it

PH survival hinges on reforms plan


He mustn't let the wolves hit him

He should have recognized his faults

Pandering to the wolves causing him to lose

If GE16 is called now


Renaissance man makes himself unpopular

Causing bad vibrations on his core supporters

Now he apologised for his past mistakes

He mustn't say it and forget


The Rocket isn't sleeping

Though the cylinders stay quiet

Renaissance man mustn't take it for granted

The reforms must push through for his survival


time to act tough

 

PH leaders

Time to flex muscles


The months ahead

The wrong moves

Causing you the loss

In the next general election


The wolves and crocodiles

The puppy love still alive

They think they have the advantage

On the last 2 state elections


PH leaders

Don't let Renaissance man forget


The reforms need to be done

Get the easy ones done

You just need a simple majority in Parliament

You have to paint the glowing colors

all the publicity but no winning votes

 

Bersama party

Rolls Royce will not make a difference

A small party wants to challenge the big boys

He should save his resources for the general election


With Blue eye he might have a better chance

When the tough got going he quit totally

He couldn't stomach the bad reviews

Indirectly he made blue eye looked bad


If he stayed with blue eye

He might have a shot at the president post

Since he couldn't stomach the long drought he quit it all

Forming Bersama to fight for his cause


He will be like MUDA

All the publicity nothing in the winning votes

His party shouldn't contest in Hang Tuah story

He should save his resources for the general election


the politicians causing the division

 

If we sit quietly

Sipping tea or coffee

Talking in coffee shops

Loudly in hawkers' stalls


Life will seem free

Sharing jokes or criticising each other

Of our dressing or products we buy

Like all the ordinary days of our lives


Only when we touch on politics

The heated fire will start to flare

The double standards in enforcement

The agencies will pick and choose


The police will make their own report

For a case to be investigated

That too base on the importance of the case

Most of the times the police wait for report


Sabah and Sarawak

They decide who can visit or deport

The Federal Government has no say

The judges will stick to the contract law


If we don't ponder about politics

Life will be an easy flow everyday

It is the politicians causing the division

Put a label on the can but they forget they are too

the Romeo ginger cat 2

 

The Romeo ginger cat

He hasn't come home for 2 days

There is no sign of him

The back-lane has no signal


As if the back-lane has no clues

The stray cats all gone

I know of cats got poisoned

As I don't see them now


The Romeo ginger cat

He usually makes his grand entrance

Announcing with his loud voice

I am home!”


But today I don't hear him

Nothing to see at the back lane

Romeo ginger cat

He mustn't be foolished to pick up food


don't let the wolves stay in the Cabinet

 

Renaissance man

Let the wolves go he's afraid

He still wants to keep them

To hold on to his post


He should look at his numbers

As long as he has the support

He will not lose his job

By letting go of the wolves


By currying favors

The Sabah and Sarawak members will give

He still can survive by letting go of the wolves

The Cabinet posts can be shared with them


Renaissance man can't sit on it

The wolves are betraying his trust

He should recognize it now

The state elections pinned him down
