rain and floods

Rain and floods
The tides of misery
The losses in millions
The time wasted

The mitigation projects
Millions spend yet on going
Rain and floods
It doesn't wait

The flash floods
The motor vehicles parade
On the roads and junctions
Underground car parking too

The politicians talking less
They have no answer to the flooding affair
The mitigation projects taking time to complete
Meantime the people curse and condemn

Rain and floods
The angel tears will keep falling
Until we realize what are the wrongs
It is the first time to heal ourselves

it may be a wishing bell



What you dream
What you desire
What you hope
It may be a wishing bell

The echo will linger
Traveling back and forth
You may not have time
To think of something else

You carry on with life
With the inner recipe
You wish you will get it
But then it may be a wishing bell

When you wake up
You see the sun smiling rays
You think you have hope
It may be a wishing bell

when wounds dont' heal

When wounds don't heal
You better go visit a doctor

There may be hidden bacteria
Lurking away in the skin

You shouldn't wait
For time will let the bacteria multiply

You get it done quickly
It eases the mind

Let the doctor doing tests
Get your medication on time

Once you delay
You never know what will happen

You may lose
Limbs or life

So go see a doctor
Get it done with

the drum beats of change

The wind has stopped blowing
The ship gets set on the sea.....
The captain yells and shouts
The sailors stay put mind ages away

The sails bring down
The captain knows his days
This isn't what he wanted
A sitting duck on the sea

The old stories of yesterday
It can't convince the sailors
They know what they carry
The destruction of minds and souls

“No Sir “ they will not participate
Carrying the illegal cargo to the shore
Many times they have done it
It's time to revolt for change

The captain yells through his speakers
The sailors bang into his station
Tie up him and hang on the pole
His body stays rigid eyes full of fear

“Tell you what captain
We don't like to be fools
The truth will set us free
Only lackeys like you be punished!”

if you don't love yourself






If you don't love yourself
How are you going to set yourself free?
It is within your inner glow
Where life will be bountiful

If you don't love yourself
You can't set your chains free
You will be always tied down
The imaginative rope leeching your soul

Every thing you wish to do
You can't find satisfaction
You will always have self doubts
It will eat you alive!

If you don't love yourself
You can't find God even if you try
No doubt God is every where
To you God wants you to learn

what pas waiting for?



What Pas waiting for?
Hassan Ali gunning down the wrong road
He thinks of himself like a crusade
He forgets he lives in Malaysia

The nation of multi religious people
Cultures and believes and traditions
He forgets he isn't living in his own race
There are other Malaysians making this nation great

What Pakatan in Selangor doing?
Take him out and leave him on the alley
The Chief Minister should reshuffle his state cabinet
Take out the wisdom tooth and live free

Hassan Ali and his kind
They only fight for their own
As if in this nation it is theirs
They forget they are Malaysians

the buses woes

The buses woes
The losses incurred
As a business entity
It can't stay afloat

When losses coming in
Year in year out in numbers
The Directors and top management
They should have think of ways

Bigger buses don't bring in the numbers
The statistics should have sounded the alarm
Maybe the Directors never look at it
Thinking of subsidies to help cover the losses

If that is the case
Any business enterprise will fail
The spoon feeding regime
The fall will be hard to take

The bus companies
Change tactics cut down to size
Bring back the mini buses
It will not cost you more

Introduce the van services
Low maintenance every where can go
Send right to the door steps
If it makes the company smile

Use NGV for all the vehicles
It is cheap and it is clean to the environment
Profit orientating companies should evolve
No public funding should be used

You have the market
You have the customers
Yet you aren't making money
Better change ways to arrest the losses

give the honor back

Sodomy 2
It comes to an end
The story hasn't ended
The decision has to be made

The circus of our courts
The independent degree forgets
The way the courts is used
The perception is bad for the public

The judge must search his conscious
He has to right the wrong
He isn't god so he should tread with utmost humility
Let the accused be free for there is no case to deliver

The lies that were unfold
The planting evidence and support
It boils down to get one man away
Why so afraid of Anwar Ibrahim?

Unfold the trickery
Let the court be held free
For the perception is bad to the public
Give the honor back

the sinking hole

The sinking hole
The fear of burying alive
One never knows
When the land around the house

The flat dwellers
They walk about
The cracks on the ground
The spider's web lines on the walls

These residents are worried
The raining season makes them fear
Complaints to authority and politicians
The usual walk about nothing comes out of it

The cracks widen on the ground
The authority can only say it is safe
Unless these engineers are staying there
They don't realize the threat to lives

the attacks of crawlies

The black and light yellow crawlies
It comes out from nowhere
Once it was from the black soil
The seller didn't bother to tell

The pest controller managed to contain it
For a few years nothing came to the garden
Now the black and light yellow crawlies
“Hah! You think you can take us away?”

In the morning rays of the sun
These crawling creatures come a calling
Other houses don't want to hang around
It's in my house the crawlies stayed

The scissor out to cut them away
The stench will chase the birds
Yet the crawlies come again
Until I have to summon the pest control

It may not kill all of them
By nature it will multiply quickly
Some say they are seasonal insects
Now I have to check every morning

the waterfall


lata kinjang waterfall by skyflash





The waterfall
The rushing of water
As the rain releasing tears
Down into the deep pond

The splashing sound
The shouting matches
The songs of living
Eyes full of praises

The swaying of forgetfulness
The danger of the deep falling water
The echo of the rushing fall
The shouting stop to listen

The tears of falling rain
It never stops on its way
The rushing water of its tentacles
Run away before it is too late

The white dancing foam
The waves of the clashing water
Each wants to score the first line
Taking the flag the bearer of a winner

the young warriors

The warlords
Once they were simple friends
Sharing meals and drinks
Sometimes anecdotes of escape

They thought big
They dreamed the good life
Laughing at their perception
Of life in the wealth of nation

The young warriors
As they grew they would
Learned an education
The passport to riches

The school days charm
The years they sat and talked
On the pavements; on the fields
They thought big; they laughed in stitches

When education was done
They flocked to the city
There lived and participated
The machines of wealth creation

Along the way
The young people floated apart
In pursuit of their dreams
The warlords of companies and parties

They don't see each other
The years they marched to their dreams
Of what they said those longing years ago
Now each stand on the ground

They have arrived
Different strokes of dreams
They are the warlords
The nation is the toy land



Different party various views
The young warriors came to the front
Waving flags shouting slogans......
The marching of forces

Different ideology various strokes
The young warriors march on the streets
They issue statements they protests
On their turf they fight to keep it

Don't listen to advice
They think they are the masters
With party veterans behind them
They simply march it on

When they meet on the battlefield
The faces of their young days came full
They peeped into each other eyes
The dreams of the young....

They rush forward
Leaving the members behind
“What are we doing here?
We haven't seen each other for decades!”

“We can't be fighting
We are friends in those long years ago
It is just stupid to carry on”
“Then we better sit down and have teas”

The songs of their lives
The others stare at each other
“What are their leaders doing?
Telling them something?”

you make your own





The sun and the moon
The moon and the stars
The rays of light in the sky
They know they can't meet

They only smile with lights
In the dark of the sky
The clear signals can be seen
They know they can't meet

The observers on the ground
They note as they watch the sky
The sun and the moon
The moon and the stars

It's like to like
It's shape to shape
It's round to round
It's the way Nature bring

The sun and the moon
They know they can't meet
The moon and the stars
They know they can't meet

the signs of the frogs


Frogs - Jumping

Frogs - Jumping




The signs of the frogs
The election is shooting stars
Many will try to jump ship
The spins will then be told

Even the days of Semangat
Many left to return to the old
Finally the party was dissolved
Majority jumped back to the old wagon

The old is gold
The saying couldn't be so true
The hard work and running around
Many failed for they hadn't done before

Now the signs of the jumping frogs
The pond is full of jumping activities
Every frog is eager to jump out of pond
The other pond full of blissful nights

The warlords in-fighting
The game they play with power craze
They should think of the bigger picture
The voters decide the game plan

The jumping frogs
The season of the raining fall
The drains full of them
Some just croaking all night long

remember the road





The reign of power
Some leaders can't forget

Once they have it
They think it's for life

Power begets insanity
Through history it has written

The test of faith
Is the power within

It never should be
The short end of human greed

The corruption of the mind
The power erodes values

Remember the road
The passage will return

God's laws


Am Si A
You are running scared
Who ask you to go rumbling?
All about hudud laws.....

You aren't Muslim
You should let it be
It is out of your vision
You aren't part of it

If you are sincere
If you are clean
If you don't tell lies
If you don't be greedy

What's there to be afraid?
Unless you have skeletons
You can't explain convincingly
To yourself and God

About hudud laws
Don't try to show your ignorance
You aren't part of that religion
Aren't all religions have it?

the humans who play games




Life of rain
Life of pain

The wrong choices
The long journey of complaints

Even in coffee shops
Even in roadside stalls

The cigarettes smoke
The long debate

It's life of rain
It's life of pain

The money gone
The land the sea

The merchant ships
The cronies set sail

When change arrives
A new mask to complain

Life of dissatisfaction
It's humans who play games

what will it be?







What it will be?
The way of the old
The way of the new horizon
You have to decide

You can't play ignorant
You can't say you have no idea
You can't say you aren't interested
You can't say you have no say

The future of our nation
She depends on her people
You have to make a stand
In chains or shackles or to be free?

Nature has come
The land and the sea
Now the people must decide
Sink or swim to b e free?

the warlords' challenges





Warlords

The warlords' challenges
On the road to get the turf
What's the use of it?
It is only in the office

Look at the bigger picture
The modern warlords should remember
It's the people you promise to serve
Without fear or favor in discharging duties

Have you forgotten about it?
The warlords in politics
You have to think deeply
For the change and challenges

It isn't about office
It isn't about personal clashes
For the record humans never really agree
Of power struggles in their groups

When internal battles over
Never say you can't apologize
Never say you don't know a meaning
You can't be that ignorant as a leader

we vote we mustn't lose







In democracy
We elect our leaders
To perform duties for country
To assist the people to live in contentment

Yet it never works out that way
We are always conned with their slogans and speeches
After every election we read and see our stupidity
And now the leaders work their way

The government passed the Peaceful Assembly Bill
It is basically to control the masses on street protests
All the established arenas are controlled by its appointed agents
You think you will easily get the permits to rally?

The leaders we elected betraying our trust
We put them there to govern on our rights
When they get to sit on the seat of power
They forget the people who put them there

Now they want to implement the IT Bill
Though we know it is free and guaranteed
The leaders feel the fear of the cyber world
They want to control every aspect of it

Besides we still have the draconian laws
Nothing has changed in the spirit of democracy
The ministers say they have done for the good of the country
Somehow we feel they walk out through the back door

GE13 must be the Waterloo
Let the change begins
Let the smile and light be our journey
Else we can forget our change

the painted canvass




Enchanted Lane



The painted canvass
The strokes of strong colors
The blooming tales of deception
Twisted with some truth.....

The pictures of celebrities
Posing for photographers
Telling the stories
The good feel for themselves

The ordinary folks
The charitable organizations
They suffer in silence
For news of assistance

The painted canvass
The images of sorrow
The life could have been
If only it is distributed fairly

it's the end of the road




End of the road


Vote for Bee Anne?
It's the end of the road

We can't allow
The health of the nation decline

It's time we take back
Our rights for her sake

We can't be listening
The crowing of yesterday's news

The nation assets
Land and sea gone

Under OSA
The contracts signed

Vote for Bee Anne?
It's time we end the charade

We want the truth
Throw out the draconian laws

Let the free information flow
Set the nation free!

the political fall out


There we hear
The ego comes to roost
The political fall out
The drum beats of quarrel

We must remember our roots
The foundation lays long ago
No upstart should think otherwise
Forgetting other contributions

Don't let ego hinder progress
Know when to let go
Be humble as you climb the ladder
Don't forget who pave the way

When mistakes flow
Learn and apologize
It isn't hard to do
It's ego betraying trust

the warlords



warlords

warlords










The warlords
They never learn
It's the power
They want to rule

On the thrones
The warlords glow
Eyes of power
Minds of control

The warlords
They don't let dissent
Quick punishments
Absolute dictatorship

In fear they rule
Yet they know
They will be gone
The light will shine

For the people
They are the power brokers
In history in today
The warlords better remember

old is golden









Old is golden
It is so true
You don't have to go
Life is aroma

The flavors in life
It's time to take
When young you forget
Old is golden

It is so true
You think life is over
You must be mistaken
It's time to learn

The path of glory
The scriptures of the truth
Learn it for knowledge
You may need it

Old is golden
It is so true
The flavors in life
It's time to take

wake up villagers

The rural folks
You want crumbs for your life?
Waking up in the dawn
Back bending jobs till sunset

When you receive aids
You thought the party helps
It's public funding
You receive only crumbs

Walk up villagers
You have to change
You shouldn't receive crumbs
There are billions worth to get

Don't you realize?
You have been conned decades ago
Have you still never learned?
The way you have been used

age of numbers



AGING



Aging well
Living good
It's life
Don't waste

The prolonging
The way it sells
Women and men
Afraid to go

Age of numbers
The sign lines
Why worry?
It's life

Enjoy it
The age of life
You can't beat
The aging cells

it's hard day work

Sole proprietorship
It sounds so good
When you stand with pride
A business of your own

Yet there are many failures
Burning pockets of holes
The families suffer health deteriorate
The crying shame in self demotion

Study the market
Have sufficient funding
Study the competitors
Learn from others mistakes

Study your business plan
See what guidelines you can walk
The crushing numbers will tell you
Before you spend your capital...

It isn't easy like 123
Running a business has the pitfalls
You must be willing t0 spend hours
Before the flowers can bloom...

the aggression 3

The Commander walks away
Deep in his thoughts as he sees her goes
The life here can be changed
If only people like her renew the change

Cronies and dogs are many
Small power small crumbs they take
They invent themselves to be powerful
They are just the small fries to think big

He never goes back
He knows the woman is watching
He walks far away passing the houses
He enters an alley then he disappears

Underneath the road
His hand-phone rings
“Commaner the army moving in
Any instruction what we must do?”

“The curfew will be imposed
Then there will be the martial law
We don't have to do anything
The barricades is ours to own

We stay in our barracks
We don't want to engage with the soldiers
They are just following orders
We watch from a distance”

Commander terminates the line
He dials to his close General
“Arrest Cow immediately
There is a breach in our last assignment”

“Commander he is your deputy
You aren't serious about it are you?”
“General he betrays our trust
Our boys were ambushed recently!”



Lt Som Som marches in
With his fellow soldiers he knocks the door
“Mr Cow Lt Som Som”
Cow opens the door

As Lt Som Som enters
He sees his commanding officer
“Good morning Major”
Morning Lt Som”

Before the major can interrupt him
“I am ordered to place you under arrest
By the order of the military council
Deputy Commander Cow is under arrest”

“What? Are you nuts Lt Som Som?”
“No major this is a direct order
Soldiers escort Cow out of this building”
“Lt Som Som you make a mistake!”

“You can take up it with the General
Or you can take it up with Commander
He orders for your arrest Cow.........”
“My President and Commander?”

Major gets up and holds on to Lt Som Som
“I know you have orders to arrest him
Maybe it is wrong Lt......”
“No major you can speak to the General”

The major watches Cow escorting away
He bends his head low trying to hide his anger
The major knows his days are numbered too
He quickly moves away and disappears

He runs to the other side
“I want to speak to special agent
There is a change of plan”
“Let him in”

“I think my plan was known
When I told you about it
You said you would capture the soldiers
Instead they were killed on the spot”

“Come come Major
You are soldier you should know
We kill without compassion
Why you come here?”

“My deputy Commander had been arrested
Apparently my Commander knows what's happening
I want to get out as soon as possible
I don't fancy staying back to face the gallows”

“Major you should go back
You are protected by my regime
You have nothing to worry
They don't arrest you”

Lt Som Som watching the building
He knows what to find...............
His watch for many nights pay off
He sees his Major walks out from the enemy's building

When the Major reaches on his side
“How could you destroy your own soldiers Major?”
“Lt Som what a surprise!”
“No you aren't but me”

The major wants to draw his gun
Lt Som Som is quicker and faster
He shoot shim on his head
He died instantly on the back alley

Lt Som leaves the scene
He doesn't need to clean it up
Let the dogs and cats take his meat
A traitor in the organization

the aggression 2

The whistles blown
The soldiers got up and ran
The marksmen covered for them
As the soldiers ran forward

There was no resistance
Only the residents startled by their sight
A man came out to ask....
“Exercise in the night soldier?”

“You don't have to worry
It doesn't concern you
You go back and forget what you saw
Tomorrow everything will turn back to normal”

The man left standing
As he watched the soldiers marching on
He didn't want to know
He had enough problems at home

The Commander closed the curtains
He tried to find who could sabotage his plan
Nobody had seen his face
He used mark up to hide his identity

Lt Som Som only saw his fake identity
Only the voice which was ordinary
He had to move to find out who was the mole
He had cost him the fight for a cause

The soldiers moved about
He could hear their voices and shouting command
Slowly as the night progressed silence came
The Commander finally retired

Within half an hour he got up
Washed his face put on his working clothes
He had to leave the house
He walked out through the back door


Along his walk
The silence nodded his steps
He tried to think who could be the mole
It could be the people in his inner circle

He walked in silence
Deeply in his thoughts
Life could be bless
If only he could....

He saw a few cars passing by
He walked on the side road
The light came from the street lamps
He didn't see any one of suspicious characters

He saw the old man
He used to sell his food in this hour
Opposite was the night spots
The patrons came out late in the morning

He stopped by
Ordered his hot drink
“How's your business?”
“It can do for now”

“You are in thoughts?
I guess it shows on your face”
“Oh it's just a small matter
It troubles me in my sleep”

The Commander took his cup of hot drink
Walking slowly as he sipped his tea
A woman came out from a tree
It startled the Commander.....

“Hold it there mister!
I am the special agent
What are you doing in this night?”
“I am taking a morning walk”


 
“i suggest you go back home
There are troubles around here
Take my advice and leave quickly”
“I don't see any at this time”

“Mister I say go home now!
I have the right to shoot...”
“Okay! I go why so angry!”
“You never listen to me!”

The Commander turned around
Waved at the special agent and moved away
Whistling in the night breezes....
The special agent watched him for a while

“Report a lunatic in the night
Nothing serious is happening here”
“Keep a watch special agent
It is quiet here too”

The Commander turned and hid behind trees
He found a bench and sat on it taking a deep breath
He wondered what was happening around the neighborhood
Then he heard gun shots far away......

Lt Som Som and his men
They made it to the other side of town
Quickly they drove the car
Away from the danger they found

He looked back
He whispered softly
“Commander please find the mole”
Then the car disappeared in the night

Lt Som Som and his men arrived
At the barrack far from the danger zone
They were ambushed trying to spy.....
On the enemy's line


Special agent looks around
The night seems quiet in her ears
It is her imagination or something else happening
She can't see where she hides

Then she sees far ahead
A creature roaring like thunder
It runs through the field
Onto the road.....

“Where this creature comes from?”
“You see that creature running?
Where did it come over?”
“You better run!”

The Commander hears the signal
He knows what this creature is
It's the harmless big giant.......
Likes to play with his games

He gets up and watch
The special agent runs away
A few minutes he waves her over
“What happened here?”

“I thought I told you to go home
Now you asked me a silly question?”
“The giant creature is running here
And you are trying to escape...”

“You know the creature?
“It is my pet............
It will come to me
You can stay and watch”

The Commander waves at the giant beast
It comes running to a stop
He grabs the Commander
Laughing at his discomfort


“I call him Godfather
It is appropriate isn't it?
Maybe you don't understand
Every society there are many

Every structure we live
You will have one who will control
Sometimes in public eye; sometimes behind the scene
You know the type who wields wealth and so is power”

The special agent looks at him
As she stares at the beast.......
“You must be kidding me?
This is your pet?”

The Commander laughs
“You see what you want to see
Your eyes make the tricks
You will fall for it”

The special agent looks up at the beast
“You really the creature...come from nowhere?
I doubt you understand what I want to tell you”
“You don't have to speculate lady”

“What?! You know my language?
You aren't the beast are you?”
“You see what you what to believe
You better go home”

“Young woman you better heed advice
You better leave now before the situation changes
You see what your eyes telling you
You have a long way to learn”

“I have to report this
I can't say I never see this thing
Where is the beast?”
“You are asking me?”
