Merlion

 

The Merlion

hard to understand
something so silly
is the pride of a city
so small yet pulsative
so far yet endearing

the scales
the mane
so absurd

it's a statue yet a fountain
it's a virtue so uncertain

and old man
fisherman by the day
cried in dismay
no longer can he fish
not even when he wishes

the merlion rules
the river it posesses
the city is obsessed
itself a hybrid

diam tak diam saya dah menghasilkan beberapa puisi dalam bentuk puisi dan lirik. 'The Merlion' salah satu daripadanya.
