the dark knight

By and4vlad

The dark knight in the woods
Black cloth covering from head to toe
Galloping on his horse of moon light shine
Breathing fire words of lies bewitching eyes

Under the full moon
Darkness seems bright
On the horseback riding by
Thundering hooves vibrating souls

The old trunks wake up
Branching out to salute
“Oh Lord welcome the night
Let the nightmares begin!”

The roar in the woods
The laughter echo deep in the valley
Houses quickly close at night
Shivering in fear sleep escaping night

The horse galloping
The whirring wind rustling along
On branches and leaves
“Don't hide from me!”

The dark knight reaches the valley
The silence greeting him alone
The horse galloping slowly
Breathing the smell of human fear

“Listen to me!
I am lord of this land
I take what I want
You have no choice but to obey!”

The wooden walls of holes
The people peep eyes wide in fear
The dark knight galloping by
The people pray hoping for light

The curtains fall
Drawing a close to the stage playwright
Applause ring from the audience
As the stage actors take a bow

As the people trooping out
Noises and whispering hit the walls
The echo travels deep into the holes
Of spies and secret agents

The special branch officers
Video recording the show
Freedom of expression only words
Action is out of bound for many

In the circle of life
The tragedy befalling nation
Of the greed and corrupted officials
Lining up to squeeze the people

Are the puppets on the strings?
Giving the party a right to rule
On our behalf for a better future
Yet we realize they fail

They scoop up awards
The expenses we pay
Running us down the block
Divide and rule telling lies all round

We pray for our light
Shining out from the darkness
For decades we have been fooled
Now it has to change

The road to PJ
Obstacles are many
Our fate in our hands
We must unite take back our lives

round and round in circle

Round and round in circle
On the road to the side lane
Cruising in the morning hours
Of Ipoh General Hospital

Parking lots all occupied
Inside the compound stretching to the side road
The long stretch of cars.....
Of Ipoh General Hospital

The security guards standing by
With whistles blowing high
The cars move along....
Nobody is allowed to park

The mosque gate finally opens
The Muslim car owners parking in
Beat the jam and the queue
On the scarcity of parking woes

Round and round in circle
Car owners driving with it
Some park for a while
At the rubbish garbage space

Soft windy breezes
The sun rays beginning to get hot
The humming birds tweeting on trees
As the minutes ticking away

dark puppet

Each puppet has a role
Drilled into it program to talk
Like what it is said
“We fight for all of you!”

The scenes tell a story
A leader tries to seduce
In the open dark lit woods
Let the puppeteers see

How it is done?
Then tell them to condemn it
With words from selected leaders
They bring the messages across

The people the puppets
Hang on by strings.....
Dancing to the tunes
Of “can't buy me love”

Now the master puppeteer
Pulling his strings to call in favours
Let the game begins......
Spin the story push it to the opponents

The audience clapping
They forget of life reality
It's happening in the society
The guardians become the stooges

The ravens fly
Eyes of glow taking it all
The evil master strings together
“Come to me children!”

The promises of gold
The lure of projects, power and prosperity
The greedy and corrupted officials
They sink in forgetting religion

Life isn't a textbook
It isn't a story to be told
It is hard fact people got used
Played then dumped or killed

the darkness run 36

The light switches into darkness
On the stage the puppets cling to strings
The props and the master puppeteer
Relaying scenes taking away pressures

The lonely people
Standing faces of gloom
Life sucking out into misery
Forcing to look at the captive

The master holding her
Play the music waltzing along
Taking her to another world
With it he wants to control

The spectators clapping
As the scenes unfold...
Of night in darkness arrives
The red eyes redemption denied

The woman tries to escape
In the jungle of dead woods
The others puppets only stare
Others closing eyes to forget

The black clothe man
Smiling on his face
“You don't have to run
In this dark world you are mine!”

The string of life
It pulls; it staggers the puppets
One falls one runs one cries
In the dark woods where evil smile

The silence in the dark woods
The puppets feel the sound of strings
Pulling them to entertain...
Only it is as simple as that

The spectators whisper
Pop-corns and chocolates
As the scene changes
The master puppeteer smiles

The people walk
The people drive
On the streets; on the roads
Leaving or going I just watch

Lives flow
Bankruptcy looms
Women and men
Prostitutes and gigolos

When the wealth is gone
What will the nation do?
Like the neighbour across the sea
Opening legs galloping away!

Jala says
The elites try to bump him off
It is written in records.........
Belt up now before it is too late

It never happens
The mega projects must go on
Depleting the national coffee
The elites want to run away

“Hey man! It's green now
Are you going across or stay?”
“Oh I am sorry
I was staring into the future”

“What you see?
Women, bets and songs?”
“The home guard changes
A new horizon under the sun”

People walk
Feeling heat of the sun
The smog of the vehicles
Waiting for the red sign

I run across
Knowing a few seconds left
Hit the pavement
I turn into another scene

the darkness run 34

The lies they spin
“We don't fight for a race
We fight for all races”
After over 5 decades!

The young black girl smiles
Innocently in a world of war and misery
The eyes glow capturing the images
Of time past and the future

It isn't going to change
The hope the young generations
Into the future they decide
The change of guard

The ravens fly
The dark feathered wings
Spreading darkness in the eyes
The darkness run

The lies of greed and corruption
Reaching for the elites
On the wealth of nation
The taxpayers suffer in vain

The mega projects
Quoted costs can be changed
Set the drills then asked for it
The elites know how it is worked

Properties of hundreds millions
In Canada for the elites of the Horn-bill
How did they get the funding?
Living life of luxuries....

The sky of light
Slowly emerging to showering hope
For the evil doers will surely disappear
For the time has set for pay-back

The dark girl turns into shredded pieces
The wind blowing her away into everywhere
By the time I reach for her.....
On the traffic junction staring at the red light

For a while I think
The world will change
It is the changeling
Manifest itself in the twilight

The waterfall lashing hard
On the slope to the rocky meanders
Clean clear water streaming along
The water vapour misty white flow

I struggle on my climb
On the rocky mountain high
I stand erect watching the fall
The whispering never dies

As twilight glitters
In the garden of the wild
I know it will be difficult to blend
Of the sight of the night

The agencies embroiled
Into unit of devilish desires
Power prosperity and projects
Breathing cohesively as a unit

The master puppeteer
String them all together
Bidding them to do his desires
The people hook to all lies

In the dark woods
Of the falling waterfall
A young black girl sits
Pitiful eyes watching the world

The darkness run
The coast isn't bright as light
The scaly trunk emerges
The night creatures alive

The ravens cry
Along the dim lit sky
Circulating with killing instincts
Let the people know.......

The black cloth easily carrying away
Believing in his skills to manipulations
He sings with untamed passion.......
“You all come to me....”

The warlords clapping hands
Tainted with greed and corruption
Sometimes blood too in pursuit of wealth
Some even dance on the stage

The darkness run with no fixed rules
Drawing lines divide and rule........
Telling the people this is how it must
“I am the leader; I have the rights”

The little crawling insects
Quickly climbing up the pole
As the opposition struggle
The rope loosens....eyes glow

The lion roars in the night
The black cloth turns around
Stop his singing and strumming
“Who's there?!”

No king shall live by himself
On the throne without the support
Of the people of his kingdom
This is the truth through the ages

The warlords stop dancing
As the lion runs down the steps
“I don't make demands
Yet you bad people corruptly do”

The opposition quickly dismantled predicament
Sliding down the pole now eager to do battle
The light and dark shall finally meet.......
The lion roar into the silent night

I wake up in a garden
Of streams, waterfalls, birds and insects
Soft breezy wind waving at my indulgences
Of the golden soft line of light......

The black cloth beast
Laughing with glee
“The night is mine
You hear me sing!”

With a guitar
He strums it away
No tune no melody
He doesn't care

He takes his time
The warlords marching in
On the stage they sit
The greedy eyes corrupted minds

The winged bats hang upside down
Feeling the heat of warm bloody sacrifices
The black cloth beast strums his guitar
Loudly into his frenzy mood........

“The night belongs to me
The evil I shall give
Now hear me children!
Don't walk alone on the street!”

The echo rings
The cool wind capturing spirits
The warlords sit still
Waiting for the windfall

The feast slowly light up
Poles of fire surrounding the encampment
The warlords eye the prize.....
The wealth of the nation

The crescent moon struggles to light
The sky slowly begins to flash out rays
Penetrating through the canopy of winged bats
Ray of ripples flashing on the opposition

The black cloth beast smiling away
His claw hands strumming the guitar
The shadow of small insects appear
Floating out into the dim lit night

“My children!
Take your pick of the night”
The opposition struggle
The rope doesn't tie....

Underground of the belly
The beast surging to the surface
Face of a skull firing dark cloth
Slowly emerging smile on his face

The night breezes
The insects stay silence
The opposition struggle
On the pole tying them to fate

The red dark form stretches
Into the dim light standing tall
The dark cloth edges flowing
Of the cool breezes sing

The night owl flapping wings
The sky turning black of bats
The canopy of darkness near
The crescent moon rays losing sight

The dark knight commands
“Let the feast begin!”
The black wings hook on poles
Eyes of red flapping wings

The beast slowly changing
Into a human face to laugh
The eerie sound traveling
Into the captives ears

The opposition feel lost
Knowing fate is near
The agencies all corrupted
Milking the wealth; the nation falls

The laughter in the nigh
The nightmares on the darkness run
The obstacles to gain Prince Hill
Line up of crooks with ties

The opposition struggles
The pole can't shake free
The beast stares at them
“Hey let me taste!”

The night falls
The sleep begins to flow
Into the empty spaces
Of the darkness run

The night vultures
Flying into the minds
Taking out your reasoning
Altering the changes

People dream on
Outsiders only watch
Lines of dark shadows
Execution of the minds

The dark hill
The shadows reign
The black knight stands
Viewing his domain

The tricks he uses
Telling half truths covering tracks
For the night is his friend
Letting nobody dares to challenge

The opposition tying up
On the dark pole under the crescent moon
He laughs at their stupidity
“Don't you know I rule the night?”

The leaders of the light
All caught tying up for the creatures
At night where the devilish moments come
The whirring wind lashing small cuts

The eyes of fear
The minds try to understand
The beasts of evil
There is no place to run

The ground slowly erupts
Widening hole cracking up
The darkness slowly sit in
The dark shadows arrive

the darkness run 28

Turn a knob
United with forces of light
Running hard on the steps
Nobody hears nobody helps

Traveling on the bridge
The haze and smog blinding vision
With cars and motorbikes revving
The long queue to get to destination

The taxpayers monies
Used and paid to help the cronies
When it was done taxpayers pay again
Using the bridge for daily transportation needs

Is it fair to the people?
Well the darkness run its course
We choose the government
We are fools got played out so often

We have learned
In the 21st century
Though it may be too late
The country's wealth going downhill

The plunders still are free
Overseas properties running to billions
How they amassed the wealth?
Income tax and macc officials closing one eye

The long bridge to fool an eye
Straight to a destination telling obvious lies
Now the people understand the truth
The darkness may find a light soon

I see the long traffic rules
The parties sucking up the wealth
The long waking up eyes slowing see
The long cool dream finally seeking truth

On the sky the smog filled clouds
The signal of change must come
The darkness has burned its course
Now the people must wake up!

the birds' sanctuary

Staring into the “birds' sanctuary”
Where plenty insects and nectar find
Feeding the little birdies population increases

Tall trees blooming with flowers
A small garden plot rearing poultry and puppy
The Indian family manning the cropping

The birds stopping by
It's the R & R on the trees
Big and small birds calling it home

King fishers and myna birds
Whistling along on the tree tops
Calling its own kind to seek shelter

Once an eagle chased
It caught a pigeon put it down on the branch
With claws pinning the poor pigeon

Quickly pulling off feathers
Quickly pinching alive.....
The pigeon struggled dying a horrible death

Horn bills of black and white
2 pairs hanging around searching for food
Loud calling finally flying away

Every morning busying tweeting
It makes the day flying easily away
With the morning rays crafted into the trees

Senses reveal in the dark corner
The style of behaviour shadows mix
Yet I know about the demons in the minds
Lining up the corrupted souls for bites
Earning cool millions turning over souls

Every step I listen to the echo
Vengeful spirits aiming to take many
Earning credits to pay debts
Remembering the losses lives gone
Yelling softly in the dark corner

Deadly creatures darkness run
Entering the living way too easy
Nature bring nature destroy
Tightened screws cage closes for good

I walk slowly listening to the talk
Destroying creatures I always dream
Interesting stories I will spin along
Often I hear people can't be bothered
The day of misty white blending in the light

Staircase to dim light
Excruciating pain crying softly in vain
X-ray eyes see the whole scenes

Bordering dead or alive
Obeying the power the greed destroy
Running footsteps echo in the night
Destroying souls promising good life
Errors of journey redemption too late
Reality takes a bite life is exchanged

The darkness run
Intention hide corrupting souls
Marrying into the dark forces
Earning credits man a long way from home

Burying in darkness
Under the silent of the night
Remembering of the past misdeeds
National Integrity wasted on lies

Living day to day
Involving them yet they don't pay
Extracting pound of flesh
Selling it high to the bidders

Judiciary bending its noble birth
Exemplary decisions way to deceptions
Solving cases eyes close to manipulations
Under the influence of greed and power
Shadowy dark cloth striking fear in life

Smelling of blood fresh warm scent
Marketing tools enriching the fools
Entrapment of the souls in all of us
Living the fast lane thinking it is good
Losing souls made the losses

I move amongst the dark boxes
Natural dim light I seek my way
Calling of the night creatures
Over-hanging bridge I crawl to safety
Movements on the steel railings
Explosion of lights scattering the creatures

On the opportunity
Naturally I quickly escape
Leaving the creatures to search and destroy
Yonder I take my flight to freedom

I open the door
That's the way for me
Accessibility to public domain
Letting me breathing easily
“Yam Seng!” I hear as I walk

learn from the fall

Learn from the fall
The falling grace the shocking waves
In the minds of people...
The public movers on stage

The glorious days
The dreams enrich
Leave it to the actors
They make it look so simple

The scripted routines
The way they handle
In dreams on stage
Nothing to worry

In reality many fall from grace
Pick it up don't judge others too harshly
Live what the actors perform
On the script of life's glory

I switch off the program
Sitting on the patio admiring the night
The moon glow bathing the night
Of witches, vampires, werewolves

My mind is full of the night creatures
Listening to the silent breezy wind
Caressing the branches shaking the leaves
The darkness run its course.............

Out of the big trees
The canopy of shades and light
The roaring laughter of 3 women
Beautifully crafted once they were

Now flying high in the sky
Sexily dressed voluptuous curves
The sing their songs bewitching minds
In the night of the full moon

The political frogs know
The lasting impressions they will get
Cursing by voters of cheating mandate
They will live suffering through generations

Unless they do for the people and country
Else their souls are corrupted burning in hell
The 3 nightmarish women know their preys
In the full moon they fly to sink into blood

The laughter ringing in the silent night
The full moon showing of their glory
Scantily dressed curvaceous bodies to ogle
In the night of the full moon.....

I switch off the lights
Knowing these creatures have a part to play
In the political lies and deceptions
They will show what darkness of life.....

It's better to fall on your knees then to fall flat
In a way there is another chance to make it
Excuses by the political frogs keeping alleged wealth
The voters aren't stupid to fall for the trap

The 3 beautiful vampires
Flying high crying for their needs
Who dare to mate them?
Live in everlasting life...!

I look out the windows
Dark sky moon slowly appearing
Oily light shooting out slow paces
Leaving prints the white spot in the sky

In the far way distance
The winged bats flying
Capturing for night food
Hissing sound I turn around

Feathered wings in television
Intimately tearing each other apart
Leaving the principles of life
Tearing souls when promises die
Howling eerily the sound shattering

The darkness run taking preys
Indecision a sport of leaving dreams
Manufacturing lies holding to power
Execution when weaknesses flow

Hidden conflicts wealth begin
I try changing channels I can't do it
Deception on the remote control
Escape is just a dream........

Watching the night creatures
Attacking its own kind to survive
I know the ruling elites implosion
Tearing each other apart only putting up facade

Fathom this on frogs
Acquiring them through alleged wealth
Remembering not the voters mandate
Managing own personal affairs....

Cruelty of the minds
Redemption hard to come by
Yardstick the cash, voters leave behind
Intimate support blindly closing eyes
Nurturing of the souls forgetting principles
Grow with the parasites nights of blue

The night of bloodbath
Of the undead kingdoms rampage
Right under the waving curtains light of the moon
On the valley where dead are buried

The air smell of rotten flesh
Of death exposed to the natural elements
The antagonists don't see it that way
They have no smell no taste of life

Welding swords and sharp claws
They charge foolishly into each other
Of life is what boiling down to
The power corrupts absolutely

On the high slope I watch
The dim moon light shadowing them
The whirring soft breezes flow
Circulating around me down to the valley

Then the warring factions stop
All eyes gearing up to my view
The black bats from the sky
Thousands flapping wings....

I dig myself a grave
Covering with mud and soil
Within minutes I lay.....
Breathing softly hearing scratches

Then the earth gives way
I fall floating deeply into it
I try to stop my descent
There is nothing for me to hold

Plunging quickly into the dark hole
Of small rocks and pebbles fall
I grab what I can lay my hands
There is no hold I am going down

I quickly unsheathed my sword
The light bloom spraying into the darkness
I land myself into present world
On the bed watching television

I hold the remote control
Trying to switch channels
The programs become irritating
Repeating shows collecting money

I have seen enough
In the Mall I walk out
Feeling good something happening
The young finally want to make a play

I walk under the underground
The dim light dancing slowly
Casting lingering shadows
Then I am push into the darkness

On the hilly rocks I peep
Rising my head to see the valley
The moon half crescent bright
I feel the soft breezes....

The howling of the wolves
In the quiet night on the valley
Shadows moving finally standing up
The undead rearing to finish business

I hold on to my sword
The magic breathes with it
Once it draws out fire glow
Into the darkness light will dance

On the hilly rocks
The darkness run swiftly
The crescent moon glares
Casting shadows challenging night

Two opposing teams meet
On the battleground of the valley
The ancient warriors undead by a curse
Facing each other fighting all over again

The shouting and swords fighting
Jumping wild cutting each other to pieces
Coffins broken into pieces
No way to hide death will come

For now I watch
The undead fight
For the curse of a magic
Repeating all over again

The night dim spotted sky
Black bats flying observing the scenes
I hide behind boulders cloth of black
Changing into rock observing history

Vanity the price for high position
Accessibility makes the going easy to get
Management the art and science of moving people
Position them telling how good it is....

Independence the key to move lives and corporations
Reliability enriches one's perception
Enrichment the blood suckers needle in
Society branded the tools of trade

The greed will take its flight
Others can say support and hate
It doesn't matter for one chosen journey
It is own the way to sail the sea

The needs of each person
Heaven or hell a choice to make
Exploration in economic viability
Go in or go out in the circle

Seasoned persons take it easily
Under the corporations high and low
Curry good spirits yet shallow
Knowledge gain experience flow

Carrying the spirit knowing it's true
Organization spreading wings of control
Corporations start hounding the market
Knock out competitors moving alone

Behind the pillar
Eyes glow in the dark
As it waits for its prey

The silent hunter prowls

The silent wait oh the black cat
Near the hole the prey will come

Trial by error always permitted

Eyes growing bigger
Yonder it finds the movements
Eager to attack waiting a long while
Stage playing teasing until death

I wait I wait I wait
In the container with tiny holes
I feel secured for the while
In my mind I have a hope

Besides the wolves
Sometimes howling in the night
I search around groping in the dark
I find a sword unsheathed it

The rays of light
I sheathed it back again
“Ah the magic sword?”
Now I know I am safe

In the silence I hear
A long whistle in the night
The wolves turn and run
Leaving me alone in the dark

I unsheathed the sword
The shining glow burning through
The container cuts into half
I walk out into a new world

The frogs are dead
In the pond of toxic waste
The principles they had sold
Into it the burial site

The colours glow
Maybe there will be change
In this world I travel
I smell the fresh air again

Into the big mall
The young register for change
A small beginning a giant step
In time the parasites gone

On the steel bench nearby
I sit and watch the scenes
People stare at me.......
The unkempt vagabond

The darkness run its course
The light finally glowing
The young will decide
For our generation failure

“Why quit?”
“I have no support
I have no funds
I don't like the party”

“Isn't it the same story?”
What story you hear?”
“The other frogs blaming the same
Only the ruling elites can help”

“Isn't it true you have problems?”
“I can't say it's personal”
“Even you leave voters disgruntled?
“It's my life nothing to do with them!”

You observe the political frogs
The way they say supporting the elites
Before they bad mouthed it to the ground
There are hidden agendas hiding behind facial facade

As the press conference over
You walk away alone again
Shaking your head on the managed stage performances
Only the actors feeling uncomfortable with so many eyes on

The day shining with blue white sky
The hot rays burning direct on your skin
You walk quickly away “where's my car?”
You stand around looking for it

“Excuse me? You are looking for your car?”
“I am really and I am running late”
“The police impounded it and took away
Here is the receipt for you to claim”

As I take a cab to the district police station
On the way I see protests hanging banners
The divide and rule never change as yet
Right to the gate I walk into it

For a moment a flash glare into my eyes
The next minute I am somewhere else
In the cold dark room with a dim light
The darkness run cold sweat on my palm

I peep through the broken holes
The wolves in pack of 4
Sniffing the air around the dark container
Maybe guarding it there is no escape

Jumping out for joy
Now they have cash
Beyond their dreams

The political life
It's winner takes all
The losers must resign
To a fate of no funding

Principles must be uphold
Everything shouldn't be money at all
It's work and sacrifices
The voters done it; they knew

The short cut to wealth
The sorrow will come in generations
Cheating of the voters mandate
In heaven you don't even smell it

Your game is over
For the people just beginning

Old stories broken affairs learning spells
Volume of it the mind dream
Expectations a new page to write

Ordinary sweet nothing eyes glow
Paradise giving two way flow
Embrace the story a page to write

Salvation a second chance
Expectations of renewal darkness to light

Remember the old how they forgot
Intuition help to stop stupidity

Dance the way

Sing the love
Let the movements glow
Let it be in unity
The paradise raptures in light

The silhouette of life in dream
Capture it for the audience

When all is done
Live the life fully
Pitfalls and heartaches
Part of the game

Often in our journey
Verily the teachers fish
Inside our brains so to speak
Granting us ways to find

Paradise link shapely enticements
Embracing it feel the heat flow
Nothing will make it go away
Centre of life the glow of light
Interesting journey dare to sin
Love life waste not what is given

Creativity into life pursuits
Remember the beginning
Yonder lies the tree of life
Interesting journey dare to sin
Natural glow nothing to hide
Go into it mind to dream....

why waste life?

By mintyfreshx33

Why waste life?
Of love affairs gone wrong
Take it as a learning curve
You shouldn't get crushed

You should stop and think
In this world men and women
You think you have a lot of choices?
It's the mind working over time

When relationship is over
You can cry; you can feel let down
Nobody can deny that feeling
But why waste life?

There are many fishes out in the sea
Learn how to fish; learn how to hook the line
Once you fail it isn't end the story
You have to get it back quickly

the darkness run 19

You don't see the dark
One misstep you fall in
Screaming alone hands waving
You hit your butt feeling the pain

You crawl out from the man-hole
Climbing ladder slowly at a step
Breathing the toxic smell
Flowing through dark hollow

Every where there are diversions
You can't decide which one to take
When your eyes see a ladder
You go right into it....

When the coast is clear
The darkness run in place
You hitched yourself out in the open
Breathing the breezy night air

Then you run to a secluded spot
Behind the tall buildings across the street
Papers floating along your way
You pick one up to read.......

The frogs jumping over
The principles all gone wrong
The mandate of the people
They conveniently push away

All for wealth on projects
The frogs seem to like it
The short term strategy milking it away
Now they sing like a trained parrot

“We got wealth
We got projects
We got ears
We sung our delights”

The night wind biting hard
Suddenly you feel cold inside
The strong surge of wind
Whirring loudly in the night

Under the canopy of darkness
You see a dim light shine
Slowly you walk
You read the message on the board

“You help me, I help you”
Forgetting about laws.....
As long as they get the bag of projects
When they spend time bridging the crowd

You walk away feeling disgusted
Of people still never wake up to lies
Parading it for decades..............
Until we lose our pride

You walk along
Pull high your collar
Trying to make it cool
When a police officer stops

“Where are you going?”
“I am going across the street”
“It is under curfew....
You better turn back?”

“What curfew?
How did it happen?”
“Where were you?
It has been for 3 nights”

You walk to the shadowy buildings
In the night every object is
Big large silhouette teasing along
You hear your own steps echoing

You try open doors
Many you have tried
Sweat form on your forehead
As the heat and disappointment rear

One last try one last door
You twist it opens wide
You step out you are somewhere else
Holding your mike asking another frog

Cameras click
Voices join in the chorus
The frog puts up a nervous face
He's afraid of his ill advice reasons

The political frogs
Money and its fishing lock
Personal gratification and justification
Throw away the voters' mandate

jumping over the bridge

The 19 years old Indian man
On the bridge hand phone in hand
The sun glowing with patches of cloudy spots
Floating along the sky as he looks up

Under the bridge a group of anglers
Trying luck fishing on the river coast
Smoking cigarettes talking about gambling
The pros and cons the sin money the government craze

The warm breezes touching bodies
Carving and measuring the shapes and sizes
The air smell of fresh natural breeze
The group of anglers concentrating....

The loud voices on the bridge
The 19 years old Indian man shouting
The frustration he faces as he tries to say
The anglers listen knowing glances.....

It's about love affairs
The parental objections
The way a block of dark shadow
Catching souls unbreakable pursuit

The silence spread on the bridge
The anglers looking up and see
A flying Tarzan jumping over the bridge
Splashing into the river he floats away

They forget about angling
They rush to the river scouting the scene
The 19 years old Indian man disappears
Under the river taking him away

They call the police
Combed the river finding nothing
The days drifting away night appears
On the river the whisper of darkness

the nails too?

the new palace Jalan Duta KL

New palace
Duta Road double
Now it stands at $811 million
How does it happen?

When contract is given
The cost and profits budgeted into it
It smells of something hollow
Swallowing up the country's coffer

Now people know the reign
You vote for the sleeping giant
This is how it pays us........
It shouldn't happen again

When GE13 comes along
Exercise your right to chase them away
We don't need the blood suckers
We want light into our lives

The elites know
Running out of time
Milking the way they know best
The taxpayers suffer on sleepless nights

the darkness run 18

The darkness run
The shadows length by the light
The long cool black, teeth shining
The peacock spreads wings the weakling bow

The independent frogs caucus
Raising flag running with peoples' mandate
Sitting on the same ground at the peacock
Bathing with its glow telling scripted notes

The demands of the electorates
These frogs jumping away
Into the milky pond popping up heads
Peeping from their hiding place

The air smell of dislikes
Brewing hot boiling to a point
Of the mandate they forget
The principles throwing away

Now sitting with the peacock
Enjoying the perks and projects
Running errands part of the plan
Forgetting peoples' mandate

On the wasted grounds
You step on it feeling those years gone
Remembering the plots and turns
The games of politicians

It isn't about the people
It is on how much to squeeze
The term of the contract
Holding office through peoples' mandate

You smell the ruins
Of lives, of future, of principles
Burying deep on the wasted grounds
The signs of greed and corruption

You kick an empty can
Feeling frustrated in the end
The political games squeezing the people
Now what the country has....bankruptcy knocks!

The way of subsidies
Cronies and linked companies
The major funding into sleeping hollow
The people cry ignore plight

the darkness run 17

You crawl from the ruins
Of bad choices of sins and of greed
Staring at the darkness run
Is life coming to this?

The frogs and back-doors
In the political games of survival
The principles throwing out to the wind
It's the paper wealth eagerly wait

The country's finance
Running into ruins
For the lazy bones sucking it dry
Working hard they make so much noise

They want to be spoon fed
Through others sweat and tears
They are the peacocks; the rest are working slaves
The engine of growth for the nation

They are the vampires
Waking up only at night
Sucking out the blood of others
They call it their rights......

The day they sleep
Dreaming it all through space
Believing it is given
The country is for them

When the truth is told
They can't live with it
Angry faces minds running scared
They turn over never want to help

In the darkness run
You watch the shadows play
The coast of lies and half truths
Leading all the same kind to doom

The crescent moon bathes the night
Linking shadows with her light
Moving slowly exposing the truth
Of what lies behind trees and walls

choices of life

Life is a gamble
Every day you walk on the street
Driving a car take a lift
You never know the misery

Even taking a bus or a train
Take a flight sleep on it
It's still a gamble....
Nobody knows the misery

Gambling in life
On the money earned and borrowed
Dreaming of the bag of gold
Floating in the mind

You have a choice
Forget about sins
Live the righteous path
Stay on within the light

The lure of millions
In a life time most can't achieve
So spend a few red notes......
Wishing for the finished line

Know the pitfalls
Only one winner in a race
Gamble within limit
Know the evil enticements

The misery of a life
Gambling it all properties and soul
Leaving a shell walking in shadow
It's them forgetting the misery

Life has choices
Each make it where it will be
Failure or success within a journey
Learn it; be prepared and quick sand

the darkness run 16

Then you turn pages
Of newspapers writing
In small prints it wrote
“National external debt $362billion”

How did the debt keep piling up?
What happen to the black gold?
The ruling peacock hasn't come out transparent
Issuing statements clouding the eyes

The rise of a race
The ruling peacock plays
Parading the racist slogans
When it is a multiracial nation

Yet the majority race
Backbone weak refusing the heavy loads
They want the spoon feed of gold
The lighted colours blinding eyes

They think they belong
On this land of many races
History has shown they aren't
They should live as one of the nation

You close your eyes
Transporting back to Parameswara
The Indian prince who came to Malacca
Founded the Malacca Sultanate

In her heydays
Trade and religion prosper
Of regions came to ply
Of Hang Tuah and Hang Li Poh

The traders, craftsmen
Money changers, fortune hunters
Clashes of power struggles
Of love and betrayal

The stories of those decades
Written in history what it was
Helmed by playwrights let the story came
Through the ages of blood and tears

The National External Debt
It sends a trembling voice within
The rope seems shortening
Of the peacock and people stupidity

cost of living

Cost of living
It never stays in one place

Everyday it changes
On the business retailers

Goods display
Items in rows

Eyes can see
Minds calculating

Money hard to come
Expenses piling high

Yeah cost of living
It never comes down

Family and education
Personal needs and desires

It can be a pipe dream
Struggling to live

the darkness run 15

The long wait
It makes you drowsy
So you doze off
On the chair

Into a world
You know you recognize
The leaders talk of plans
Pushing hard to get it done

Writing notes of grandeur
Of developments on tangible flow
Of money to fund it
It is hardly been told

The thick report
Wasting time and papers
Will it be read and understood?
As the leaders hardly read

Of many plans before
No postmortems of plans
Piling under heavy excuses
Dig up money spend unnecessary

Only the village folks
Simple life can't understand
The wealth of the country
Going to waste right through their votes

The simple minds
They don't understand the billions
When they receive thousands
They think they live in heaven

The banners in the city
Telling the people to wake up
Fight for your rights protect the wealth
Before the hawks scoop it away

The national debts mushrooming
Piling hard on the finance.....
Will the country stay economically?
Will she go into bankruptcy?

we have to learn

The sun glow
The basking of warm light
Spreading its rays
On a Sunday morning

The birds chirping
The big and the small
A new day of sunny flow
Of marriages and cars horn

Behind the golden rays
Imagine the darkness hide
Of the inhuman tortures
Testing animals for cures

The warm breezes
Blowing on the palm trees
Of yellow and red
And the humming birds tweeting

The day starts
The shadows flow
Of light and dark
We have to learn

th darkness run 14

The black gold from the East
Spinning out of night fall......
Entering in caves of Ali Baba
The pipe lines lay indiscreetly

The dreams of many
The magic glow in the minds
Nothing will stop them
It's the black gold!

The life of wealth
Measured by the greed
Hard work in crooked ways
Bending rules cronies escape

Some subsidies to the people
Let them feel how important
The fools they have been
Taking the crumbs

The contracts signed
The money transferred
Into cronies accounts
The holding trusts

You drop your pen
You bend down to retrieve it
Somebody walks by
Toppling over your chair

You fall flat on the floor
Legs and hands hit the concrete
You get up with bruises and sore legs
When you look around you see white uniforms

Rushing and running along
Chasing after emergencies
Nobody pays you any attention
You have small bruises no big deal

You wait at the lobby
Like others of small egos
At the mercy of the nurses
They don't come waiting a long time

the darkness run 13

Then you listen
Along the corridors of whisper
Of grants and power plays
Like a stage

The subsidies contracted
Bundled up into a nice package
The leakages into down streams
It reminds you of Chap Goh Mei

Oranges throwing into the waterfront
Boats berthing around waiting for the catch
It's so easy netting up the floating oranges
The good wishes the virgins hope to get...

You smile standing under the shade
Distributing drinks and food as you go along
Canvassing your ears to pick up news
Of power and greed amongst the rich elites

Upfront the lines seem clear
Bending its ways behind alleys
You walk alone carrying trays
Nobody pays you a second glance

In the kitchen hot and humid
The hot air oozing to let go
Of women and men affairs
Of money and sideline businesses

The fire glow as you glide through
Sparkling high as you know it would
The cooks don't pay any attention
You are just a public servant

Then you trip on the swing door
The cooks laugh at your clumsiness
As you get up to carry on..........
The darkness run your way

The black gold leaks
Spilling into greedy pockets
You are top of the investigating team
Probing the corruption bankrupting the nation

give a hand

Give a hand
The Bee Anne goes
With public funds
Backdoor gains

Give a hand
In whatever name
The name of the game
The people deeply regrets

Voting in the wolves
Now they are milking it dry
As the jungle begins to clear
The pictures become transparent

Give a hand
Then swallow through
Spending unjustly
The name of the game

the cat prayer

“Oh Lord give my grace
Find me the food I craze”
The the light brown striped cat prays
On the bench in public place

Hold up its paws
Close eyes willing it to happen
Listening to the wind
Breezing through its fur

The tail wags
Feeling the moment is true
“Oh Lord thank you!”
The whiskers moving

The small boy comes along
Chase the cat away.....
He sits down munching his food
The cat turns around and meow

enforcement weak

Property owners
Bought many houses
Put in the market for rent
Thinking income will ring

Maybe it is true
Providing honesty prevail
Into the tenants
Putting up paid homes to stay

First few months nothing to worry
Everything is paid on time
Until the property owners lulled
The nightmares just begin.......

The utility bills piling up
The utility company closes an eye
Though by rules it should be cut
The utility company has back up plan

The property owners will ask to pay
When the tenants default paying bills
Running to ten of thousands.........
The utility company just doesn't care

Now the property owners must pay
Else no renting no selling
The utility company washes off its hands
For the financial woes the property owners bear

forget the awards

Chua Jui Meng
The plot of Bee Anne
Though these leaders deny
The damages had been done

The People know
Why want these awards?
Giving and taking away
The father, the son and holy council?

The country should forget
Awarding of these titles
The merits of the recipients
Not in the work for the people

What to expect?
The dying breed sinking in
The power of our destiny
It's her people to decide

Chua Jui Meng
Return the awards
Ask them to collect it
As a former MB of Johore did

Let your conscience be free
Work for the people
The awards will enrich your soul
Let your faith guide you through

a child got lost

A child got lost
A mother tears and sorrow
Falling images a child gone

A short while alone
Then she is gone
Searching everywhere

A child got lost
The neighbours organize search
The public offers help

Yet the tears fall
The silent scream
The eyes sad.......

Why or why?
The answer the breezes cry
Along the darkness run

the karate cats

The karate cats
On the prowl in the day
The sun rays shining gold
The way is clear

The pigeons gather
On the food on the alley
The canteen operator throws
The remnants in the rice pot

The flapping wings
The colourful pigeons dive
Forget about predators
It's food man; it's the food!

The karate cats watch
Quickly they rush into it
The pigeons take off
The karate cats flying paws

Capturing one or two birds
Knock them unconscious...
Lying on the back lane
The karate cats meow

The fresh meat
The smell of the hunt
The sun moves its shadow
Glaring sprays the dancing flow

Dim light for the pigeons
Eyes staring flesh torn to pieces
The animal instincts of a hunt
The karate cats hit the road

the darkness run 11

Step on a ledge
Unlock the mystery ways
You fall screaming loudly
Into the darkness hollow

The red eyes blinking
Every wall you see
You groaned in your throat
The voice can't form words

The gravity pulls downwards
You blanked out as you fall
Deeply into the darkness
Perspiration heating body forms

There is a big splash
The cold water hit the body
Eyes opening wide yelling sound
Fear begins to seep into the mind

You swim up quickly
Gasping for air feeling no broken bones
As your eyes adjusted to the darkness
A tunnel and ladder leaning on the cave

You think it is
As you swim ashore climb upwards
Slowly turning the cover knob
You peep outside the traffic jam

Slowly you crawl out
Somebody yells to you
“Where have you been?”
You look bewildered eyes staring at him

“Get your gear
There is a jump on the Twin Towers”
“WWWhat jump?”
“Just go there don't ask question!”

On the road you watch
The Twin Towers glaring up to the sky
The wastage funds giant phallus
Hard rock hard steel

A woman stops by
“Hey get into the car!”
You just follow no question
On the way to the jump....

the darkness run 10

The winged bats fly
The sky turns darker black
The shadows cover the empty sky
The evil doesn't sleep knowing why

For a while the long silence
You peep out from the big hole slowly
Raising your head to a seeing level
The darkness turning you cold

Only the red eyes
Winking at the dark space
Waiting for something
You think you have enough

Crawling out from the big hole
You make your efforts inch by inch
In the darkness run every step counts
You take a deep breathe....

You crawl to a thick bushes
Immersed with the surrounding
With nature as you observe....
Two white forms descends quickly

The air is cold
The wind picking up speed
The leaves begin to dance
Waving without a fixed direction

Then you hear the saxophones blowing
In the still cold night the melody rings
Bringing up the tempo in the darkness
The winged bats cracking up to fly

The black line in the dim light
Of the winged bats in formation
Rising up to the sky dark sky
The melody ringing loud and tempting

For a moment
You watch with open mouth
Looking at the winged bats fly
The 2 misted beings staring around

make the best of time in hand

In the cage
The fully grown birdies
Standing on claws showing antics
Stretching wings and legs

The little royalty
Getting fed from the parenting birds
Bringing food of berries, grasshoppers, nectar
Sometimes other insects

4 days in the bird cage
Learning how to chirp...
Calling for food it seems
The parenting birds keeping schedules

Yesterday in late afternoon
One birdie got choked to death
By the time it was found.....
It was gasping body weak

Trying to help
Feeding water rubbing the small throat
It struggled eyes open and close
Finally it was totally gone...

Released the lone birdie
It flew away dropped on the road
Finally took its final step
Winged away to the big trees

The journey of a life
It can't be predicted the outcome
Even for birds or animals or humans
Make the best of the time in hand

the darkness run 9

The misty breezes
You feel it on your dry skin
Now cover with mud and dust
You slowly get up and observe

The white misty smile
The misty sharp images rise
Waving misty hands drawing closer
You walk backwards prop up by the wall

The red burning eyes
You see it suddenly appears
Burning into your mind and soul
You close it wishing to disappear

You hear the drums and gongs
Beating on crazy beating.....
In the darkness run you try
Pushing away the misty forms

On the streams you stop
The directional signs wave
Here to NEM; here to MP10
You look bewildered staring it

You try to read the meaning
In the night of crazy dim light
You hear the whispering bats
Flapping wings in the far distance

What it is?
Can't the plan decide?
Say one thing plan another
You feel cheated in the darkness run

You turn to NEM
For the long term benefits
As the winged bats crushing through
You jump into a big hole

The quarter moon shine in the sky
Casting long shadows along the tall trees
The dark atmosphere staring eyes
You hide away within the big hole

the despair

The hunger despair
The eyes stare
Waiting for help
The young try

Food maybe
It's the dreaded disease
AIDS knocks the door
The curing none so far

The world keep moving
Dragging its feet......
Funding so hard to come
Yet oil spill billions lost at sea

And the hungry of life
In the world of darkness run
Greed and corruption make way
Lives getting lost every minute

The children struggle
Born out to the world
Of hunger and disease
Only we shouldn't be so selfish!

the darkness run 8

In the misty emptiness
You float along with the wind
Carrying you to where it lands
On top of the highest peak of hell

You fall into the soft wet misty ground
It cushions your fall absorbing your impact
You lay eyes close feeling uneasy
As the stale smell lingers into your nose

The wall of procks
Cutting edges opening sesame
Every touch and movement
You know the way of hell

You hug close
On the free space
As the nightmare ensnares your soul
You shiver waiting for deliverance

You hear the crickets sound
Outside the walls you put your ears into it
Listening to the natural calling.....
As you hope somebody will deliver you free

The darkness run
Into all shapes and sizes
Now your eyes adjusted
You see the evil smile

On the side wall
Lies a big strong hammer
You quickly grab it
Banging it furiously on the wall

The debris fall
Crushing on the floor
The procks keep engaging
Opening mouths closing tightly

You keep hammering
Until a hole you make it
Outside night breezes flow
You yell “I am free! I am free!”

Only the silence greet
In the darkness run of space
Nothing comes to aid
You are alone in the dark race

the black gold

The shades of light
It makes the eyes blind
Giving out aids
“You help me, I help you”

The Middle East countries
The governments know whom to help
Amongst the Muslim brotherhood
Close one eye telling political stories

The Arabs they think are god people
Bless with oil the black gold.........
The envy of the world population
The centre of the religious faith

When they play tourists
You will see their ugly faces
The wealth they carry
They treat others like slaves

In Langkawi the taxi drivers
They could tell you their anger
How these Arab tourists treated them
Some fetched them dumped on half way

The Arabs complaints
The Malaysian tourist officials run
Of tourism money they bring
Forgetting about dignity.....

It is wealth
What they can get to protect
The comfort zones and black gold
Of brotherhood a small step will do

the canopy of shades

The law of God
The human race forget
Living on own ruling
They call themselves 'the kings”

The greed of power
The easy hold on cash
Honesty and thrifty
It's way beyond understanding

The cronies amongst the group
Hiding facts and collusion
Amongst friends and associates
The fall from grace they ignore

The religious committees
The work of God they forget
Pledging the will of God
They forget sitting on the chairs

The public complaints
The slow wagon knocks on the streets
Carrying it for a thorough investigation
It takes ages to see the light

The law of God
We better don't forget
The canopy of shades
It will disappear.....

the darkness run 7

The darkness run
Into the economic back lanes
The crony linked companies
The way the wealth distribute

You raise up angry and hungry
Of the wastage run into life
The rich becomes plentiful
Amongst the elite runners

The poor run into blocks
The public services bearable
Behind it there is corruption
Raising concerned in the public union

Is the service compromise?
Owing Ah Longs the civil servants
Only these group of people
Services will be par excellence!

Now the flip flop
On the Parliament shifting
From KL to Putrajaya
Costing over $800 million

You stare at the unbelievable cost
You know it will not stay at that value
By the time the project is completed
The cost over-runs into millions

The greasy path the footprints
It all leads to the back lanes
Of smell of curry flavours
It makes hungry again

You lie low
A super-spy you try
The job nobody wants
They say all agencies are black

As you hide and wait
Somebody knocks your head
You fall unconscious on the back lane
Lifting you away.............

the darkness run 6

The customers come
Eyes hollow mouth pink
Saliva flowing dreaming of it
Hanging around waiting

The China cats drawing them
The smell bringing them hungry
All eager all need to taste
Of the fruit drawing in thousands

The lucrative business
The China cats pulling crowds
You feel so tired working on it
Then the blue gang arrives

They want money
They want a share
The illegals quickly pack up and run
Into different directions wanting to be free

The blood thirsting gang
It's money on hard earned cash
They take it without a wink
They know they run the show

The licences under counter money
“You help me, I help you” tag line
Openly display afraid of no wolves
Time to roll before all is gone

You jump over the steel fence
Injured your leg fall into a big hole
Struggling to get up but you don't
Into another venture the ceiling fall

The stadium worth millions
Collapsing on poor workmanship
Cronies contracts work cut corners
Ultimately the State loses; the people's money

You get up with cuts and bruises
The tangle steels, mortars and sands
You stand to watch and wonder
What the government is doing?

They sleep on their jobs
Owning money on illegal borrowing
The civil servants undoing; the political greed
The debris of wastage lay bare on the ground

what will it be Sir Knight?

Popularity ranking
The black knight cools his lance
Feeling so good after a long run
Will he take the plunge?

The lady on the dais
The ever willing to run
By your side enjoying the posh services
She can't wait to enjoy it fully

The bad vibes of the past
The bad smell bean-curds on the street stalls
Bubbling hot waiting for customers
What will it be Sir Knight?

A small sample pushing for you
Right to your doorstep they write
Giving you the green hot light
Dare to call a snap election?

The silver light shine
Along the dark patches of cloudy sky
The magic of numbers you smell it right
What will it be Sir Knight?

the petrol station should be closed

The fire red and biting
Blazing its red glow burning hot and angry
There is no where it can be stopped
The fury spreads cracking hungry noises

Under the engine the wire melts
Carrying it inwards cutting edges sharp as laser
The metal frames hot turning red and black
Yet the fire never stops it grills deeply

The rubber hoses melt on its touches
Burning rubber smelling toxic acid fumes
Under the hood the pitiful pleading
Of the trapping coiled by the damaged metals

The day started raw and bright
How it turned into tragedy time no tell
Our lives aren't our own to deal with
It is somewhere somebody pulling strings

Now hearing the screams and cries
The pleading and the agony of the fire
Biting deep tearing up flesh without mercy
The cracking flesh and burned and die

A life is lost in tragic
On a petrol station refused to help
Aid of fire extinguisher denied
A soul is gone what the hell!

A thing isn't important
This petrol station should be closed
Denying a life without an assistance
The owner has no business to run

Imagine the fire
Hungry no feeling whatsoever
A small fire a friend; a big fire a devil comes
Let help each other before it swallows us whole!

the darkness run 5

On the misty dark night
The ground wet with misty dews
The silence lingers in your ears
As you try to listen afraid to lose

Nothing to hear
No animals no insects
The darkness run
You too follow

The blindness pursuit
You seem to flow
With the wind carrying along
You tumble face downwards

Hitting a dead log
Or a big stone divides
You hardly can tell
You fly into the quick sand

And you hear stories
About millions can be made
As you sink deeper into it
You croak “Help me! Anyone?”

You can feel the sinking
Grabbing your body burying alive
There is no wind; there is no live
You hold your breathe slowly raising your hands

As you surrender your body and soul
Thinking that is the end of the journey
You find yourself pushing upwards
A giant steps out from the sand

“What are you doing here?
This isn't the place to make your millions!”
“I don't know; I just drop in by mistake”
“Now get out of here; it isn't your business”

The giant blows you away
Into a distance coming out into a wet market
You find yourself selling wild animals
The China cats the demand great

the darkness run 4

On the dry ground
You seem better for a while
Listening to the hot wind whirring
Letting you believe............

A short walk
The muscles tense and alert
On the dry carpeted grass
Of dry twigs and leaves

The sun penetrated through gaps of trees
Writing colours of golden rays
You stare at it eyes try to understand
Of the needs to stay alive

You close your eyes
You want to believe it so
By then you wake up in office
Listening to the television news

Sports licence approved
The Stock Exchange gets the news
Opposition parties protest
So are the NGOs

The finance minister says
“We will collect data
We want to hear both sides”
Has backdoor allegedly approved?

The darkness run
With Bee Anne on the helm
Saying opening back lane shines
Let the people know....

The approval seems to be given
To the cronies running the company
The sports betting licence turning greed
The way it is said and done

The darkness fall
As you tumble down from the chair
Waking up in the claws of branches
Clutching you asking you to pay

the 'tomahawk' birds 2

In the cage the birdies sit
Claws tightly holding the thin iron rods
Eyes looking ahead of the tall trees
Flowers and honey, insects and freedom

11 days old 2 days in the cage
Fully grown with feathery wings and short tail
Surprising these type of birds grow faster
With the humming birds about 18 days with tails

Now the adult bird flying in
Bringing food to feed the birdies
Going round and round the cage
The birdies stay put never moving

Watching the scene for 5 minutes
The same scene keeps repeating
Finally make some noises on the cage
The birdies fly gripping on the cage iron rods

Now the birdies learn a lesson
Move to get something to eat
Stay stationery nothing will come
Action must be made to make it turns around

In the morning the cage door opens
Letting them to feed easily.......
The birdies always stay stationery
Waiting to be fed then sleeping away

The mother bird will come
Feed them eat the waste away
The droppings in the cage
The adult bird makes it clean

Now still in the cage
Dangling on the stationery fan
Facing the garden and the street
The freedom when they are ready

it's a donkey life

It's a donkey life
Hard labour nobody appreciates
Carrying heavy loads
Up the hill down the road

Galloping at a slow pace
Long ears sharp rising to empty space
Eyes staring at miniature images
Carrying loads heavy on the back

The working hard donkey
The thorough breeds laugh at them
“We are make to run in races
You are made to carry loads”

The donkey ignores
It's my life born to carry loads
Hard working tracking long journey
No comfort only a life to live

the "tomahawk" birds

The “tomahawk birds”
Flying as a pair into the garden
The grey white yellow underbelly
Dark green and shade of brown

Build nest lay 2 eggs
Hatching done 10 days
The little birdies grow 7 days
Full of feathers, tails and wings

The little birdies hardly make noise
Quiet as a mouse waiting to be fed
It's attitude “Come feed me”
They aren't eager to flap wings

They don't hop and fly around
Unlike the humming birds' birdies
Noises and flapping wings
When they see the parenting birds

So these pair of birdies
Different specie different attitude
Sitting and sleeping most of the days
Waiting to be fed hardly showing gratitude

As if it is saying “you want me feed me”
As it sits without moving an inch......
As the adult birds flying in watching them
Hanging on bamboo branches or across the street
