Zhiyang Tan 1999 (Melaka)



March,
March onto March.
Wall alongside,
Keep me in touch.

Wonder how would I get
Desperate during this lengthy place,
While chasing for the wealthy rate
On seat my fancy mighty space.

Good lead to cent
Would support my daily,
Else earn on acclaimed 
Should even make me happy.

From colleagues and teams,
I found somewhere to stick.
Together we make a seam
To own money from others leak.

Hush,
The phone is ringing.
Rush,
Pick up who's questioning.

One sprint out of crowded
With a pen and sketcher,
He and she and me quiet
To make occasion for the propitiator.

There came a sound of doubt.
We heard from heart in his mouth.
All and sundry pondering adopt
But none can calm down the wrath.

After manager has knew,
Body him dewed.
Though truth already shew,
He questions as new.

Fury brimming down from the overcloud,
Fatly escorted become an stormy eye.
Inquiries ride out,
Compassing all aisle.

Those set into smudge, blown away from gates
Without a grasp of accident barged.
Stars sole upon the evening vacate,
Wandering betwixt these pairs of arches.
