Pilihlah Aku (Bukan Bajuku)

Oi maknya, what scientific reasons these holes as I seen on ‘TV’?

Yes!… it’s a good idea,

To release heat just by lifting ‘our’ hands straight 180 degrees up,

To evaporate more sweat without showing my stomach to ‘you’

As a physical therapy to treat itchy at ‘your’ armpit.

Serupa, Ada Rupa tapi… Lebih Bodoh Rupanya!

Suddenly… I look somebody at a ‘window’. It is like an alien…I walk in fear to get nearer to it and it does look like me…Its face, like a ghost, Its body lousy, It smells very intoxicated..

But.. He does as what I do.

When my nose and ‘its’ nose ‘touch’ one another ..the alien ‘runs away’ very fast …where is it?

I laugh all day long, I never see the bad, mad, fool + crazy cat like that!..
