the sorry state of haze


In Langkawi
The haze makes it worst
Flights cancelled ferry services delayed
The thick white mist blanket it

The visibility is poor
The holiday makers losses
Of tours and flights
And time wasted and stranded

The angry faces at the airport
Staff get the heat of shouting matches
The passengers shouldn't blame
Tell it to Indonesia

In the white thick mist
There is another kind happened
A man rapes his friend's wife
Coming in to fondle then raped her

He threatens her
Later pay her $70
The woman can't handle it
She makes her police report

I remembered once
A murder in a highrise apartment
It was n't published in newspapers
It was to protect the image of the island

So we see
Haze brings problems
To the economy to our health
And the slow process to get it right

the directions on the tree



The directions on the tree
The big fat tree standing alone
With name cards telling it why
When you are lost stay down with me”

The tourist island
The escape for a while
Living the dreams
Walking on the beach

The crowd of summer
The hot sun lazing the island
The people of the world
The big fat tree with its directions

Are you lost?
On the island you make your day”
The hot breezes coming from the sea
The lazing under the sun

waves to the beach

Do hear the waves calling?
In your sleep deep into the floating ship?
Maybe you will as you live through with it
The islands of beach, fun and joy

Walking on the fine sandy white sand
The years seem like today.......
You wake up and you remember
The island once you stayed

The windy breezes
It never comes every day
It depends on the weather
When it rains in the evening

The ripples water catching eyes
At the beach the calling waves
Splashing its white hungry laces
The painted lines white of purity

Do you hear the calling waves?
In the faraway island once you stayed
Maybe you will as you live through with it
Listening to the wind brushing through the air
