#GE13 #dream by Ummabdrahmaan

#GE13 #dream by Ummabdrahmaan

Red rocket is riding on the green wave
while waning twin moon is with luminosity decreasing.

Where are the scales?
By the beach -they are lining up
waiting for the green wave crashing.

When the wave
could be a giant one
gaining strength
turns into tsunami
launching the red rocket
further inland.

The wave turns into foams
returns to the sea.

The twin moon may set
a new day arrives.

The scales maybe down,
broken,
but like spring,
magically pops back up,
gets bigger
marching to battle
the white rocket with the red moon
emblazoned
that has been hastily
erected by the hillside
when they see
the blue scales marching in.


In time,
the rocket fall down
due to unstable footing.

The scales grow bigger,
replicate rapidly,
all over the land.

and you certainly
don't tell a dream
that you dream not.

Aedes Breeding Ground

It was built to be a waterfall cascading down the Bukit Puteri hillside.

Now it is the aedes mosquito breeding ground.

I visited Bukit Puteri on Saturday.

When stopping at the counter to pay for the ticket, I started to notice mosquito bites on my arm and swarms of mosquito hovering over my head.

Realising that I was frantically waving my arm to drive the mosquitoes away, the guard told me that it's lucky that I didn't come in the morning because there were a whole lot more of them during the morning.

It was about 2:45 pm and the sun was shining brightly.

He was quick to add that while the hilltop is under the the state of Terengganu Musem's jurisdiction but the waterfall is under MBKT.

mmm... can't MBKT be fined for breeding mosquitoes on their ground?

Can someone call MBKT and tell them to come and clean up the waterfall or at least send a couple of men to sprinkle some insecticide into those puddles of stagnant water...

Ops! that someone could be me!
