this is why i love the 80s.

Chorus:
I eat cannibal, feed on animal
Your love is so edible to me, I eat cannibals
I eat cannibal, it's incredible
You bring out the animal in me, I eat cannibals

Repeat till end:
Roastin', toastin', you're the one i'm boastin'
Eat me, eat you, incredibly delicious too
Gourmet, flambe, serve you up an entree
Intake, home bake, you're the icing on the cake

Eat me, eat you, incredibly delicious too
Gourmet, flambe, serve you up an entree
Intake, home bake, you're the icing on the cake
Full up, can't stop, dicing on a chop chop

another week has flown by, leaving me 2.5 months till ORD-ing!

this week, i caught the musical Victor Victoria, starring Laura Fygi at the Esplanade with jeremy, bought Christmas presents in town with jojo, brought my colleague out for a birthday lunch, went to Auntie Mary's for the thank you dinner she threw, caught up with tammy at hongkong cafe over (the o-so-sinful) peanut butter french toast, chilled with the boys and rayner at joe's corner and had some lovely italian sausage with michael and jojo at PS.

i also managed to squeeze in some time to visit my new sengkang unit for some last minute checks, before the contractor starts the complete makeover tomorrow. i'm enthralled about moving in next february. i really hope my contractor doesn't screw this up.

it's another busy week ahead. till the next!

over beer, cooch & cake.

i met rayner last night for a good catch up. one thing i absolutely love about rayner is how in one conversation we can talk about work, politics, love and sex, the economy, philosphy, britney spears and cooches (trust me, you don't even want to know what that is).

in particular, we were discussing how the "progression" of man and society has ultimately led to the regression in the quality of something so common, but so quintessential to our daily lives- friendship.

man used to depend on the camaraderie and fraternity of a friend to win a war, court a lover and start revolutions. what does friendship mean today? we've sold all the values entailing this solemn connection for the hype and glamour of pop culture. in rayner's words "pop culture is meaningless". just take a look at your facebook friends list and ask yourself how many people in there actually know you. not the you that you've described in the "about me" section, but the raw, naked and ugly you that you hide every day of your life.

in Identity by Milan Kundera, he describes friends as mere mirrors to an identity we once had or still have. friends then become mere fabricated identities to aid us in our survival in the superficial world we call our humble (not so?) abode.

it's a sad state we've evolved to. i acknowledge however that my viewpoint is not absolute. i know first hand. i can proudly say i've got an amazing support group made of amazing friends who've seen me butt naked and ugly (not literally of course). i'm lucky. i know not many have so many a shoulder to pick should they need one to lean on. so if you know you're one of these special people in my life, thank you and know you'll always have my shoulder.

polar decomposite.

i close my eyes,

(knowingly known and unknown)

to be drowned with voices.

i was waiting for you to drive by.

you told me to wait under the light,

(in me,)

so you could recognise me

in the shadows of the moon.

the moon lied.

so i find myself clawing through the dirt,

nails in the earth,

where you and i laid side by side.

i tried to cup the tear drop streaming

down your face- but i had no hands,

(you never blinked)

save the ones cuffed to the roots by my wings.

bubble wrap over my gullet, my nostrils-

to taste the breath from your mouth,

yours alone.

it's like i'm clinging on to the foil

you wrapped my perpetrated windows with.

i don't even understand what that means anymore.

i used to dream rivers.

right where i stood three years ago.

right where you hid behind the pillars of my estate.

right where you knew i could see you.

just so i couldn't.

so which voice do i listen to now?

how do i cradle my sanity

(knowingly known and unknown)

when all i hear is your footsteps behind the pillar.

sideways,

in trickery no iago could bequeath without blinking-

you never blinked.

in hoods and daggers,

(for fathoms penetration)

in me,

in me.

i must confess.

i have an almost obscene love affair with

emails and snail mail.

__________________________________________

so you called last night.

you called to tell me everything was okay
and to tell the family not to worry.

you said you didn't want us calling you to find out.

thing is,
will you tell me if this whole conversation we had,
was just another one of my crazy dreams?
