This one's targeted at the Chinese community...

I've been at odds wondering if I should post these thoughts; for I'm writing them with the Chinese community in mind, of which I am sadly and disappointingly a member of. On the one hand, diplomacy dictates that I exercise restraint to escape offending the next Chinaman who reads this; on the other, my inner conscience has been wildly swinging back and forth like a Yo-Yo.

So in the end, I thought,
"FUCK IT! LET'S DO THIS."


A long, long time ago,
When the Nazis came for the communists,

I remained silent;

I was not a communist.


Then not too long ago,

They came for the social activists,

I did not speak out;

I was not a social activist.


Now more recently,
They locked up the HINDRAF 5,

And again, I did not speak up;

Because I was not an Indian.


In the not too distant future,
When they finally come for me,
The selfish Chinaman, the one who did not speak up;

By that time, when there is no one left,
Who will speak up for me?

So now are you ready to throw your indifference aside?
To stand up united with me and be counted for?
To actually believe that your ONE VOTE constitutes
THE LITTLE THING THAT MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE???

If you are, then you are as entitled as I am to say this,
"FUCK IT! LET'S DO THIS."


This Saturday, 8th March 2008,
Fuck the political parties,
Fuck the candidates who are standing,
But....
DON'T FUCK YOURSELF
BY NOT VOTING FOR A CHANGE!
