Men in Blue (PNG Police)






Men in blue 
On errand of the state

Got to subdue
Enemy of the state


Marching on with malice
Perverting the course of justice
Creating animosity 
Serving hostility


Rules of engagement are at stake
Civilians feel unsafe
Men in blue
Bring back the respect


In PNG, I am born
Yet I'm torn
Like a criminal
This is all political


Men in blue
Got to be true
To your call
Whatever may befall

The Irony of Love

My son
My own

Love is my emotion
Guiding my motion
Across the Ocean

I have to go
You don't want to let me go

I note the look in the eyes you bear
My heartaches to see you tear

I had to be daddy in the plain
But my eyes well with tears in the plane

No, don't think daddy don't love you son
Daddy knows the game will be won

Mama tells me you don't want to eat
You put me under heat

Nor watch television
Regretting  my decision

I asked, what's up?
Mommy hangs up

Mommy tells me you're distressed.
For a while I am depressed.

But we got to be strong, Son.
Believe me Son
It will be won

Life is a Protrait!



<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

The portrait's not only what you see.
The reality of the envied is not what you perceive.

Behind the scenes are the circumstances varied.
The envied ambitiously carried.
 
Criticize on the missing ink.
Coz it's only the missing link.
 
He strokes again and again.
While you belittle with disdain
 
Time is a Healer
Coz he's a believer

Making strides with the brush
Comments only a rush
 
Time will Tell
Ah, All is well
 
Life is a portrait
Not a dose of barbiturate

Enough of the all-knowing criticizer
Rather get wisdom from the adviser

Don't remain the beholder
Rather be the wielder
