Singapore
River by Lee Tzu Pheng
The
operation was massive;
designed to
give new life
to the old
lady.
We have
cleaned out
her
arteries, removed
detritus
and slit,
created a
by-pass
for the old
blood.
Now you can
hardly tell
her
history.
We have
become
so
health-conscious
the heart
can
sometimes be troublesome
