"Getting Hammered In Malaysia" - Poem For World Poetry Day 2015
Season 1, Episode 3199, Oct 08, 2015, 01:42 PM
Getting hammered in Malaysia
pelted on by heavy water
flared by lightening
assaulted by thunder gods
as if I'd been cosseted in the womb and sucked outside
so unlike the Malay.
Raindrops are not under your command
we are sent to clear your air
disrupt the haze
silence your cough.
Nothing lasts.
Nothing continues
Nothing sits on top of you
unless lightening strikes your heart
and takes your breath away.
