the gas pipes

 

The gas pipes

Look cool around buildings and homes

The gas pipes snaking underground

The soft hissing sound in silence


Once it is laid

The authority will not check frequently

The gas pipes in years of usage

That's the danger waiting to fire


Even hawkers plying trade

Set up stalls near to the gas pipes

Don't they see the danger?

The red sign everyday in their eyes


The forgetful attitude

Thinking danger isn't there

When the fire start to burst into golden rays

Smoking bellowing up to the sky


Now who is to blame?

Maybe insurance companies will pay

The public liability policy

Lives and properties affected
