spices of life 101


rojak












Sand, water and supremacy

The thinking of fools in our country

Branding their own kind ignoring others

In the nation of mixture in the bowl


Prawn paste, a little sugar, a little salt

Soy sauce, red chilli and mixture of fruits

A big spoon stirs the bowl with all the mixtures

Turning every part into one solid whole


Don't we realize we shouldn't survive alone?

Without unity we are preys for all the predators

Too much leniency on the racists in our midst

Newspapers spin and the running bugs sing


The black dogs keep barking

The snakes crawl biting some on the way

The bought over frogs jumping with glee

The bankers frown on their faces...........


Sand, water and supremacy

The weak solutions on weak foundations

The soft breezes will not break it away

Until the tornado or twister jams its day


The country of potpourri of races

It is this mixture drawing our diversity

It is this foundation we would be progressing

It is this bowl we are sharing as 1 nation 1 people 1 vision
