OF JOY.ANGER.SADNESS.THANKSGIVINGS. 喜怒哀感恩篇TRAVELOGUE, PERSONAL THOUGHTS. 游记、日常生活心情录

smoke gets in your eyes

here's an environment modelled after that of a condominium
in fact, the units here are called 'premium'
the blocks currently are only about half full
the whole estate is still 'brand new'
the foreign workers have done their job deligently
in ensuring the surroundings are pleasing aethestically
yet, you,
yes, you
the ones burning 'hell money' and other 'hell luxuries'
right on the pathways that had been paved so beautifully
Have your recipients or the smoke caused you to be blind
see you not the ugly burnt marks you have left behind?
it's true the town council has yet to provide a bin
but is it too much to bring down your own tin?
this is our country, this is our land
you are my neighbour, my fellow country man.....
pooi!
your uncivic-mindedness , i really cannot stand!
the place you call home you treat it with such shame
it's no wonder when you're abroad, you bring us a bad name
Let it be, the 'Ugly Singaporean' tag
stuck on that back of yours and all who civic-mindedness lack!
but please, confine your ugly behaviour to your very own nest
spare the environment, spare the estate keepers,the ghosts and all the rest...
