the big bad wolf


The big bad wolf
It finally runs to Ipoh
The books fair of cheap prices
Attracting a few hundreds

Why hold it at Menglembu PHL?
It is way out of Ipoh city area
Outstation people will get lost
Finding their way to PHL

The area has no proper parking bays
Parked at your own risks along the side roads
Along the nearby industrial factories
When it rains there is no way to escape

PHL restrooms are dirty
The management never cleans it
The doors have no latches
The wash basins never washed

The temporary floor carpets
There are lumps on it
If you aren't careful you may trip
And the big bad wolf runs to PHL

A few hours spent
Browsing the books
Though many aren't the current titles
Some are a few years back catalogs

There are not many Malay novels
There are limited guitar books to browse
I saw one but it could be for the advance level
Leaving the basic players nothing to look

For the prices of the books
It is still a good buy to read
For the books lovers in the crowd
It is a place they can spend hours
