the day 6

KLCC at night from the street




Walk in the back alleys
In the dark dim street lights
Row and row of hawkers' stalls
Smell of food many types

Life of these hawkers
Tough yet willing to try
Sunrise to sundown
They stuck it out

The legal and illegal ones
Strike it out to elk a living
As long as they can find
Where money can be made

Single, partners or family
Try it out every night....
For the cheap food and drink
Bare the heat, the smog and noise

City in the night
The fun of entertainment
The way to elk a living
All kinds many outlets

Beware too of unsavoury characters
Hide behind sweet facades......
All they want are money
Easy to take easy to run

In the long shadow of the night
The drum beats keep hitting along
It never dies so quickly..........
Until 4 in the morning
