silver dollars lost souls

Pangkor Island by William Cheng  C C

Pangkor Island by William Cheng C C



The pirates set sail
On May 7 the final assault
On the mainland pot of gold
Mesmerising tide eyes full of light


Leaving the island empty
For others to take its place
The home ground the pirates forget
As the pulling factor makes them pay


On the high sea
The sail of skull and bones
The signature on the flags
Waving with the red light scene


The landlord agrees
The bargaining of longetivity
The throne for personal gain
The people let them play their games


The ring leader
And his band of thieves
Hours of transformation
Hiding their true colors


The mainlanders know the plot
Send messages through internet
Fast and furious it flows
The final assault for rights of freedom


The uniform actors
Promising handouts swift action
Blocking roads on flimsy excuses
The stage is set
The confrontation shall begin
On May 7 the cannons fire
