Fart Pollution

Poetry, Three Words in A Line 8 Comments

Steel cover humans
Humans cover steel
Daily driving on
The asphalt road
Pass gas out
Fart gas out
Of their butt
Gas of pollution

Destroying the environment
Destroying people’s health
Destroying animals’ habitat
Its final destruction
Is global warming

This Era

Free Verse, Poetry 12 Comments

In this computerized age
In this digital age
In this Internet era

Tweeting
Posting updates
Ring each other to talk
Type and click send

Immediate and effective
All are completed in a flash
Instant communication
With a tap of our finger

More information sharing
Move around Internet
Flying information
Waiting to be tapped

Can we live
Without Internet?
Are we more at rest?
Or craving for more?

When a question hit my head, I realised that I will draw more and read more books with music. The question was “What will you do without the Internet?”

Extreme Trust & Distrust

Poetry, Rhyme / Rhythm 6 Comments

There exists people belong
To two categories.
Extreme to each category
Very few in-between
Prudent category.
The two categories are

Either

Naive
Trust others too much
Believe others too much
Treat others are nice like themselves
Either being cheated or betrayed
Reveal self too much

Or

Wicked
Distrust others too much
Believe self too much
Treat others are cunning like themselves
Either cheat or betray
Refusing saying too much.

Do you wonder this yourself?

My mother told me that my dad is a very trusting person whose life and money were sucked by his friends. Then I was inspired with this poetry title and the poetry flowed later on. The book of Proverbs described the contrast between the naive, prudent, and the wicked. As I observe and scrutinize my parents, I realized i have a prudent mother. If not for her, I won’t be able to study in Singapore to get bachelor. Her motto (translated to English) is, “Though not cheating, prevent self from being cheated.” Then I wonder about myself and reflect the above poetry.

Poetry as Medium

What is the medium of poetry?
How is the poetry woven?
Is poetry the medium?
The medium of artists’ inner expressions?
Or are artists the medium?
Are artists poet?
Are poets writers?
What is the medium?
Medium?

Oh, Poetry Poetry

Oh, poetry poetry
How do you define yourself?

You are crafted beautifully
Crafted with
Words of vocabularies
Strong words
Enough to
Capture
The readers’ attention
Penetrate
The readers’ heart.

You are crafted beautifully
Crafted with
Lines of separation
In the midst of
White space of paper.
In the midst of
White space of word document.

As I observed and contemplated the technology is increasing rapidly and improved, deep down I sense that human’s mind is fascinating and beyond imagination. From nothing to something tangible. The power of innovation is indeed strong. Creativity is also essential to the improvement. Before I fell asleep, the above inspiration just comes.

Empty & Full

Free Verse, Poetry Leave a comment

THUMP! BANG! CLUNG! CLUNG!
Empty can makes the loudest noise.
Bump! Bump! Bump! Bump.
Overloaded can makes the softest noise.

No food, not eating
Empty mouth talks a lot.
Munching food and drinking water.
Full mouth creates silence.

Nothing to do
Noisy and pester.
Lack of knowledge
Bragging to know anything.
Know a lot of things
Wish to know more by humbling oneself to seek knowledge.

Is It?

Free Verse, Poetry 2 Comments

What if . . . ?
What will happen . . . ?
What causes this?
Who causes this?
How this does happens?
Which events trigger such behaviour?
Where to find the solution?
Why?
Why?!
Why?!!
Full of WHYs!

Is it an artist’s questions?
Is it an interrogation?
Is it a toddler’s questions?
Is it a child’s questions?
Is it a teenager’s questions?
Is it an adult’s questions?
Is it an engineer’s questions?
Is it a scientist’s questions?
Is it a life’s questions?

Is life full of questions?
Or
Are we questioning life?
