Mr. Chin

Birthday Poem for a beloved Teacher.
(composed last minute before literature class to put into his B'day card)

Whether or not your Birthday is tomorrow
I'm not even that sure
I just assumed its the sixth of June
as stated on your I/C number.

Even if it's not as I thought it was
I still wish you a very happy birthday
Whenever it is, wherever it is
I hope you enjoy the day

You've only taught me from January to May
I started five months before today
But in time so short, you've taught me a lot
More than I can ever repay

No matter how bad this poem suck
I hope it won't end up in a rubbish truck
Keep it somewhere so that you remember
This student of yours forever and ever

Happy Birthday Mr. Chin
Thank you for Teaching Me.

Existential

I'd like to not exist Than to live this life as it is To see suffering all around With no eyelids in pain   Speed run through the stages...
