I sat down at the town square
And lighted a candle for someone I admire
He's gone to jail for the sake of a Mongolian girl
Who died of a malady called persistence
They cremated her with C4
To erase her existence
This is only a wax candle
I sat there feeling the warmth
Of the evening breeze
To the sounds of the traffic
But the atmosphere was about to freeze
And I wondered
Where’s everybody we’re supposed to meet
I’m trying to remember when was the last time
We had a hero we could worship?
The naysayer had nary a good word to say
But called him a trouble maker
He’s a Prince who walks with commoners
They charged him with sedition
There are too many seditious people
Who’d try to prevent them
From running the country as they please
Umno killing tactic is to staff a dead cat into someone's mouth or mouthful of blood and spit on people. By now we know the tricks too well. Thanks to modern mass communication.
