Sheared Daffodils



Her seconds are minutes, are hours prolonged
Searing cold caressing her nights, dreamless on edge
Chilling warmth as her days slowly passed
Centurion months compressing her spirit’s age

She dares not move her lifeless limbs
The spreading numbness a welcomed sensation
Unceasing screaming ceased, warily suppressed
An ending (please God) a much awaited vocation
 
Gone are the laughter, the smiles, the giggles
Moments long taken flight from the life she knows
Memories unadorned and estranged emotions
Leaving her a husk, a being, a life soulless

She knows that she should hate
Develop an enmity withhold a rage
For a life forsaken, a future damaged
Of broken promises, of trusts ravaged

Yet she longs for loves' return
Of calming influence, of needs unspoken
Of hugs, kisses, and spontaneous affections
An ending (please God) a closure yearns

Please God, let it be her swan song, this closure she earns..

Penentuan Pahala Posa aka PPP.



Kalau ikut kata Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri Jamil Khir, posting ni akan mengurangkan pahala puasa kalau ada sebut pasai 1MDB yang ada berunsur fitnah atau seangkatan dengannya.

Like, Forward, Komen dan lain2 yang berkaitan yang banyak2 tu pun sangkut gak, katanya di sini.


Agaknya kalau tanya kemusykilan tapi dengan nada penuh sinis kurang tak yek? Kurang jugak rasanya.

DAP punya Tony Pua seronokla sebab dia tak posa. Boleh belasah sungguh – sungguh bab ni.

Sarawak Report punya Clare Rewcastle Brown pun okay gak.

Kita – kita yang Melayu Muslim ni sangkut la. Rafizi, SakMongkol, Aspan Alias, Kadir Jasin, Apanama dan lain - lain. Depa - depa la. Ramai baca lak tu..

Oleh sebab itu, saya akan posting pendek sangat2 hari ni dan ianya bukan pasal 1MDB dan isu - isu berkaitan dengannya.

Sebaliknya, saya nak cerita pasal beli komik Marvel “Secret Wars” (yang dulu, bukan yang sekarang; gambar sebelah kanan) dapat beli buku terbaru Tunku Halim “ A Malaysian Restaurant in London” (nun di sebelah kiri) murah 20%.

Nak tahu saya beli kat mana?

Kat Borders Mutiara Damansara.  Ala, Borders. Yang manager Melayu  Muslim dia tu pernah kena hambat ngan Jawi pasal buku la jugak. Cerita lama lah tapinya sebab la ni dah lepas dah.

Okay lah. Dah cukup setakat ni. Tak nak posting banyak sangat. Letih posa.

Kepada Pak2 Menteri yang berposa, selamat berbuka nanti, Insha-allah. 

Kalau nak bunyi Arab, iftar. Kat Kedai Mamak operate 24 jam pun boleh. 

Pahala dapat asalkan ber, ummm, iftar awal waktu no.

Sordid Mayhem



There are some serious allegations against the New Straits Times on the whole Xavier Andre Justo storyline.

You can read this different take on the man formerly with Petrosaudi (1MDB’s one time JV Partner) who was arrested in Thailand recently for alleged blackmail and extortion charges.

Mind you, the picture of the arrest show a full array of uniformed men with automatic weapons. All very Bourne-like in fact.

(The picture is a scene from Bourne Identity, which RTM2 has graciously brought to the idiot box last week or the other. Thank you, guys.)

Anyway, the ever gungho Sarawak Report has cast aspersions on the, urm, reputations of the New Straits Times reporting on Xavier. 


The NST piece (read and you’ll understand this use of phrase) state amongst others: “How could such a sorry figure have ignited a major Malaysian political storm?”

Hmm… Haven’t read the NST for a while now but I am quite shock with the style of writing. No byline on the online report though.

Probably the upcoming trial of Mr Justo will be followed closely by all parties interested in this development on Petrosaudi that is one of the many concerns with regards Malaysia’s 1MDB.

It would be interesting to see what sort of information will come out from this trial and if at all, the MSM will accord it ample print page. 

Very sordid affair, this. You'd have to wonder where it will go finally.
