Premium Member The Malay Pantun: Post-Colonial Writing
La capinera's wintering pieces of tropic tunes
    The garden warbler's echoes of dark melodies
Post-colonial poets return by summering fortunes 
    Learnt by rote as sacred Oxbridge duties

Note

The French "pantoum" may be modeled on the Malay pantun,
or at least it...

The Malay Pantun:  The Non-Party Communal Triumvirate

Ursidae carnivora hug and hibernate
   Hypolais polyglottes trill without triumph
Alliance Party* wins and vituperate
   Opposition parties coagulate without lymph

since Independence in 1957.

added ambiance to the fanfare years,
the species are restricted to forest
reserves due to its flowering host plant,
Adenia's, in the regions, cate's length,
colors change, sociable, pupae process,
soon a new adult emerges and mates,
confirming progressions of the species.
Unique...

If I Didn't Have Her
Jika saya tidak mempunya dia, 
Hidup saya akan berakhir. 
If I didn’t have her, 
My life would be over.
Tidak akan ada warna.
Tidak akan ada yang menarik
There would be no color.
There would be nothing interesting.
Hidup tidak akan berbaloi untuk dijalani.
Hidup saya akan berakhir. 
Life would not...
