land of abundance
indulgence of greasy hands
shout out dignity
swear greed bring them down
autumn leaves wither and fall
futile, blown by the wind
obscenities stay
courts clear corrupt corridors
survive through winter
Note:
I was checking the dictionary for “shoutout”, and the lyric of the song appeared. I read through it ad found some ideas to write my poetry. The racial political rally in Malaysia is a kind of popular hip hop trend , in the sense that it win votes by pandering peoples’ baser instincts. On Merdeka (Independence Day 31st August), a friends send me a flag of the nation with the words, ” Malaysia is a land of Abundance”. Indeed it is so, but we have so many thieves, who steal, and call to protect their dignity.
I went for a stroll in the park just outside the house. It was a hot sunny day, with weather forecast of heavy rain. It was a cool walk under the shade, with strong winds blowing, shedding all the leaves like an Autumn in the west. The withered leaves fall and make way for rebirth of the new, instead of robbing them of water and nutrients. Some leaders are arrested or on the list, but many obscenities are left behind.
