The poem evokes a sense of emotional uncertainty, where sweet words conceal dangerous intentions. COCK NIGHT He walks one-sided,  like a fish tempted to taste the bait  Dancing like a cock will showcase talent to the hen,  Folding and unfolding its wrapper,  A display for a woman he doesn't love,  The very one he cheats on. "I can not sleep without you"  He's been sleeping.  "You are the cockroach in my cupboard"  Believe me, he only has pots in there.  "You are the sugar in my tea"  He only takes pure Lipton, ordinary Lipton.  "I will die for you"  Let him smell the barrel of the body freeze  And he will behave like Peter,  Waiting for the cock to crow thrice.  "I love you more than my mothers"  He's dependent like a parasite.  "You are the most beautiful girl I've ever seen" ...

ATMOSPHERE The atmosphere is tense, dark, chaotic, manipulative, and emotionally disturbing.

THE DAYS OF SPARROW Man is the best when men behold him afar.  The closer he comes,  The monster he becomes.  Take a look at his manifesto  And gossip to us what he's up to  Give him power and wed fear. My political participation is base on, "well".  Like I would build my hut on the East West Bridge.  Of course I know they are lovers of Bridge  They show you their card  And you do nothing than run mad  They can't serve you well. My friends, take! Take!! Take!!!  That money is borrowed somewhere, When he wins the throne, you shall see the tear.  Never risk your life to give him throne,  He can offer nothing except bone,  And mistakes shall be all the steps you take. Woe is almost all they do.  Take from t...

The poem creates a tense emotional environment where words and actions stand in conflict. THE UNQUALIFIED ADVISOR If only married men were advised  And had stuck to the advice  The way they would wish the youth to,  Then Christendom would be full of Monogamists But it's a pity  That he who pleases the eye  Is more of Don Juan  Than we had ever imagined. Sometimes I look at my adviser  And then I read the mind of the blind.  The blind knows he need advice than I (a Single) do  What a confused soul! Let him who is far from truth take advice,  And he who is close examines himself.  One could be a prey at times,  Everyone knows you can't give what you lack. “Everyone knows you can't give what you lack.” AUTHOR’S NOTE The Unqualified Advisor was inspired by the growing culture of hypocrisy in soc...

THE BIG "F"                     See her the way the world does,                      And she will grow old at the right time.  But see her in another dimension  And she will be growing till you both die at 70.                     Let your eyes behold all women,                      And you will never marry.  But let her alone be your flamingo  And her color will be unique.                     A man shall leave his...
