the painter



The painter looks at his canvass
In his studio he ponders in his head
What is he going to paint on it?
There are so many things going in his mind

There are many tales to capture
The painter whistles with the sound
Blowing cold air in the studio
He holds his brush rolling in his fingers

He listens to the song “I am a preacher man”
He can’t get his subjects right in his mind
He looks at this canvass thinking what to proceed
Of so many tales and so many lies

He draws two circles
He can’t find his strokes
He feels he has too many in his head
He sits on his chair and stares at the canvass

He listens to “Whiter shade of pale”
Letting himself floating away
Forget about his canvass and his painting
“I am a preacher man” he smiles

goodbye persian cat


Comel is gone
I don’t hear the meowing no more
Not in the morning not in the night
He is gone for good

I whisper my goodbye
Many days ago, I am missing him
The Persian cat gone to heaven
Finally, what I heard the neighbours said

Comel is gone
He had maggots around his neck
The Malay family who stole him
They didn’t help him to get well

Comel is gone
He died of hunger he died of disease
He died a broken-hearted cat
Without help coming to his aid

He was charmed by black magic
He didn’t come to the house he knew so well
He slept here; he was fed his good food
How he couldn’t find his way home?

Comel is gone
I whisper my goodbye days ago
I miss see him in the morning
I miss see him at night




the rat roams


What is with the rat?
Day time running loose
Searching for food
In full view of the cats

What is with the cats?
The rat in the open
There are no cats dare to chase
In the day the rat roams

Picking up food at the back lane
Sniffing food no fear of predators
The rat has the freedom to roam
There is nobody comes to chase

The rat sniffs around
Running to flower pots along the wall
When it feels there is a sign of danger
The rat hides quickly feeling secured

What is with the cats?
They are snoozing away
Leaving the back lane free
The rat has the field day

you are in the opposition, am C A


There is no revenge in politics
It is the winning party rules the day
Once you were in the ruling power
You could do the same routine

Now you are out of power
You screamed revenge in everything
What is with you?
The Chinese had left you long ago

You dare to ask for matching grant
You are in the opposition and that’s a fact
PH government has no obligation to grant you
You have to find your own funding

Utar, UCTar and Kojadi
It is controlled by Am C A
You are in the opposition
That’s the life in politics

You still have the funds
Put in fixed deposits
Use it to fund your needs
For karma has made you pay

Do not cry revenge
There is nothing for you to say
You are in the opposition
That’s the life it is

run amok


Run amok
The urge of uncontrollable rage
Believe his own values under threat
Believing it is right to do

The amok of a race
The frogs will jump high
While it lands it will find
The ground is hard it isn’t paradise

Run amok like zombie
Parading in raging fire
Wanting to gain an upper hand
It will fall flat and shame

Run amok
Out of steam the souls may go
Satan will be waiting
With his bag to take souls

The frogs like to jump
Thinking they are the highly breed
When they jump down
They will be in the bag of souls

Satan will be waiting
He will be very happy to bag souls
The more frogs wanting to jump everywhere
Satan will pick them one by one

Think about it
Run amok a losing end
Satan will be smiling
With his bag of souls

bersatu


Bersatu is a racist party
It never says it isn’t
It is set up to recruit the Bumiputra
To take the nation for the next progress

Currently it is going to recruit members
Especially from the Ambo baru wagon
Bersatu wants to get the ready pool of people
They will ignite the recruitment drives

Bersatu can afford to be racist
It is part of the coalition in Pakatan Harapan
The parties forged together for the people and nation
PH wants to progress the country and her people

Bersatu should recruit reliable members
It is important these new members do not derail efforts done
Don’t be in a hurry to be a dominant party
It is the collective decision will progress the nation


in my working life


In my working life
Many Malays worked with me
They didn’t show disrespect
I told them to carry out tasks

Behind my back I wouldn’t say
Though I suspected a few would do
Writing graffiti on the wall
Telling me in many unsavoury words

Somehow, I would get the feedback
The bad apples running around
Causing mischief causing bad image
They were the ones who couldn’t do well

I was lucky in commanding position
Barking orders getting things done
Working with 95% Malay workforce
I had my share of the back stabbing

The Malays I knew
They could be kind and supportive
They could be bad and couldn’t care less
They just wanted to cause troubles

With decades of working with them
I had seen the good, the bad and the ugly
I found they could be very good
I found they could be truly lazy

the persian cat again



The Persian cat
I heard the neighbours talking
About a smelly cat and weakling legs
One neighbour bundled him out
And let him walked back where he came

The Persian cat I suspected
He was in a daze caused by black magic
It wasn’t the first time he got hit
This time he got it worst

He couldn’t find his way
It wasn’t like him to stay away for days
He would come for his tuna fish
Waiting at the porch patiently

But he didn’t come
I kept a look out for him
I didn’t see him anywhere
He wasn’t coming out again

I knew where he went
Back to his old home again
He got hit by black magic
He couldn’t eat his meal

Yesterday I saw a big black plastic bag
My thought felt it was the Persian cat
He finally succumbed to his hunger
The Malay family causing his demise

Goodbye Comel
You gave me a time to feed you
I always felt good seeing you around
In the morning and at night

it is better they pray in the mosques



The charged leaders
They are afraid to go to prison
They will try to make noises
Let their supporters and ilk on the streets

They may use money to bankroll it
The street demonstrators need the cash
Once the sub-leaders get the green light
They will arrange to bell the noises

These demonstrators never hold placards
When 1MDB and other scandals hit the nation
They stayed cool as if nothing has happened
They don’t receive money for their efforts

The paid demonstrators
They are willing to carry out the tasks
They don’t think with their heads
They look at the money and so they behave

The police and Home Affairs Minister
Get the act together and stop the gathering
It has no value to the nation and people
It is better they pray in the mosques

some day


Some day we will
The senses to give way
No more hiding in the cave of our minds
Afraid to make the cut and move on

Some day we will see
We can’t talk all the times
The 3R and live to progress
The nation as a whole stand

Some day we will move
Across colours and race
The stage is waiting for us
We will have to make our stay

Some day we will wake up
We can’t carry our loads alone
It will bring us down the slope
We have to stay united and grow

Some day we will take flight
We can’t stay quiet and let it be
The nation needs us to make it
We have to make our nation proud


the rural malays


The rural Malays
They should stand on their own
Strike it out to enjoy the benefits
Of finding wealth on their own

The decades of handouts
It has done bad for them to progress
They have the skills and experiences
They will make it in their lives

PH leaders should go to the ground
Encourage them to stand on their own
Give them support and incentives
Until they get rid of their past addictions

The rural Malays
They can’t forever ask for support
They have to strike it out to be free
Stand on their own make their wealth

PH leaders must teach them how to fish
It will help to support them for eternity
The clutches of addiction are walls
The rural Malays must knock it down and be free


amcia stop the antics


AmCiA stop the antics
Through the years we heard enough
It is time to close shop
Go back to attend your garden
Maybe have high teas
Remembering the silence
Of the past deeds sleeping with the Taikor
Until you couldn't stop the bad events

Don't try to bash up the Chinese
You have nothing else to do haven't you?
If you don't hit DAP, you seem you are dead?
Musa Hitam once said of you
MCA-dead or alive?”
The guys fought like dogs
Trying to stay on top of the pack
AmCiA you have lost the plot

If you have such good ideas on economy
Why keep silence all the years?
You wanted to harvest for yourself
Letting the common folks fight hard for it
At that time you got it easy on the wagon train

AmCiA the current crop makes no difference
In their minds they still think of the wealth
What they can get out of it now?
Its leaders will try to show they are relevant today
As I said before they have lost the plot
It's time to close shop


the flying daggers



If we never learn to share
We will always feel the blue
It will never end even we grow old
The knives of greed will hit the wall

The greed will cause the misery
It's like a maze looking for the kill
Searching everywhere running in circles
Yet the rumours will spread like a wild fire

Still the contention is on the card
Somebody is trying to grab the power
For greed is never wanted to cease
It is there for the fall of many

The greed in the maze
The flying daggers keep going
Who will find the truth to stop it?
Until we learn to share and stay united
