THE BUGIS WARRIOR

[pete-marina.jpg]
Marina and her husband RPK

RPK alone in solitary confinement
Under ISA physical and emotional abuses
It can break a person
The police forget
He is a Bugis warrior
He isn’t afraid

The ancestors of his long lineage
Fighting wars on seas and lands
Now the police are facing a man
Born to the Royal Household of Selangor
A descendant of the Bugis warrior

RPK had been there in2001
He knows what it will be like
An experience he has shared
Nothing will break him
Only the truth he fights for it

Alone he stands
Fighting the lap dogs
Barking at him incessantly
For the prince in him
He knows he isn’t beaten yet

The candles vigil
Lighting up his strength
He stands to fight for the truth
Sure he spins his tales
So as people can relate

RPK he knows he is stubborn
The warrior spirit never runs away
Alone to face his adversary
He stands his ground
For the truth and freedom
He fights and cherishes
For the common people like us
And him taking the heat
For he is the Bugis warrior
He takes them all
