General Poem 6 - Singapore Dream

Night/Dry/Air-Con/SSP's bedroom in a flat somewhere in the North


I want a Condo,
I can't afford one.

I want a Country Club membership,
I can't afford one.

I want a car,
I can't afford one.

I want a credit card,
I can't afford one.

I want cash,
I don't have much.

I want to be rich,
I am not.

I want to be a scholar,
I am a drop-out.

I want to be a Officer,
I am only a driver.

I want to go University,
I only got secondary.

I want to have a perfect body,
I have a big tummy.

I want to have a good job,
I am stuck in a shitty one.

I want to be a yuppy,
I have no money.

I want to eat in fancy restaurants,
I only eat in food courts.

I want to gamble in casinos,
I have no money.

I want to be driven,
I can only take MRT.

I want to have a 50 inch LCD,
I only have a CRT TV.

I want to leave a legacy,
I have only lousy history.

I want to be somebody,
I am a nobody.

I want to be counted,
I am just a digit.
