smogged out




copy malaysianinsider.com




Smogged out
In the sky of haze
The air quality is bad
The doctors smiling at the doors

The people have to work
In the hazy hot sky
The health issues become secondary
Finding money to survive

Indonesia will ignore
The issue of haze in her country
Every year there are the familiar reasons
No action to prosecute

In Malaysia enforcement is weak
There will be pocket of open burning
The authority never assigns officers
The law is there but no bite

Every year the plantations play
The familiar songs in the air
The excuses of the open burning
The corporations escape punishment
