(A poem)
by Allan CF Goh
When we train an animal,
We want it to just listen,
Not to dare to stop and think,
But to ‘behave’ when chastened.
We want a real, docile being,
To a given task, hasten,
Without any talking back;
Mindless, forever craven.
This is how ‘humans’ behave,
When blinded and conditioned,
To just listen, and listen…..
Without using their notion.
They know not what things are right,
They live only permissions.
If that’s allowed to happen,
We end up an idiot nation.
hence, the animals are happy with their goverment.
Well written. An English poetry with this issue? It does not even come close in milleage when Mat Sabu says Listen, Listen, Listen!
Listen , listen , listen .. BN is your trusted partner
Listen , listen , listen .. BN is your trusted partner

Ya, he has been their trusted bed partners for generations. Strip and bend over are their commands and chengho would doggishly listen, listen and listen.
