So damn early for once, i see
orchard road at 9:30 is
like shenton way after dusk
or a mid-morning mohd sultan stretch;
dead, lifeless, random strangers scuttling past
busier things await, higher on the
priority list
in the morning sun.
these accessories of our city life comes
alive at other hours
(shenton way) traps its business-suited mannequins
during office hours
such is the release of repressed souls onto streets
come tomorrow, we will
rewind/ replay these tragic circumstances.
