TAHUN BAHARU?

Tuesday, January 2, 2024 at 10:28 PM


Tahun Baharu?

Ke mana kah arah tujuan (kita)?
Berapa lama lagi nak bersengketa?
Biarkan terus tidak bertegur-sapa?
Sehingga salah satu (dari kita) mati?
Masih lagi rakus mengumpul harta?
Dua perpuluhan lima peratus sudah kira kah?
Atau simpan sahaja riba untuk lebih kaya?
Ayah dan ibu di kampung bila lagi nak dijenguk?
Ataupun lalang habis menyelubung kubur (mereka)?
Wak Sulaiman penjaga kubur pun masih menunggu?
Anak-anak (kita) pun terus jua kurang ajarnya?
Bila pula nak disematkan budaya yang luput?
Disuruh mengaji, tapi masih terbeliak depan skrin?
Mahukah kita kira-kira untuk mengganti sujud?
Atau menabur beras bila tidak melaparkan diri?
Ataupun lebih baik ke London dari ke Mukarramah?
Mungkinkah azam baharu kali ini berlainan?
Masih releven lagikah enam petak di perut?
Ataupun kulit melepak disuntik pelbagai?
Sesungguhnya haruskah kita bertanya?
Persoalan-persoalan hidup dan mati kita?
Ataupun tembak sahaja bunga api di langit?
Untuk tahun yang kononnya baharu?

F@#£ Y%& SEEMS TO BE NOT THE HARDEST WORDS TO SAY

F@#£ Y%& Seem To Be Not The Hardest Words To Say


You say F@#£ Y%&

I'd say F@#£ Y%& too

You say F@#£ your mama

I'd say F@#£ your mama too

The truth is,

We are all F@#£ers

We say F@#£ Y%& to each other

It bounces back to us

Almost instantly

As if we are saying F@#£ me

At least then your opponents,

Would also say F@#£ me too

So, F@#£ it

F@#£ Y%& all

Mother F@#£ers!

LOVE

Friday, December 29, 2023 at 10:00 PM

 


Love


It is a disease with different faces

Anxiety,

..... when finding it

Fear,

..... of losing it

Depression,

..... when it leaves you

And afterwards

It is almost not repairable

Like a fully melted ice cube

Deformed of its shape

Sprawling on the floor

Contaminated by dirt and particles

How would you gather it?

Or even press a reset button

You are a fly that has lost a wing

A threadfin with a hook caught it its eye

An old car with no replacement carburettor

A lonely albino whale

Yet, 

It is unlike the ice

A twist of juxtapose

Your heart stops melting

It shall be frozen

Like the five million square mile of ice

Right there downunder

SHOULD THE KID CARE WHAT JEANS TO WEAR TOMORROW?

Thursday, December 21, 2023 at 2:36 AM

 

Should the Kid Care What Jeans to Wear Tomorrow?


The clock strikes twelve

The luna is hiding,

..... behind the clouds

Go to sleep!

Go to sleep!

Says the mother

As the kid swipes the phone

Amusing himself with,

..... TikTok shit

And stupid moronic,

..... Disney LBGT crap

So he went to sleep

Setting the alarm,

..... at precisely seven a.m.

As if not recognising

That Subuh ends exactly that

He dozed off to neverland

..... almost immediately

With nothing in mind to worry

A blissful soul so to speak

Not troubled by any weight

.... on his shoulders

But only to decide,

Which jeans to wear tomorrow

Meanwhile .....

Far, far, away .....

In the land of "Watermelon"

A kid sobs to the death

..... of his mother

..... of his family

..... of his people

..... of his nation

..... of his dignity

..... of his freedom

Hit by the blue star of David
