Drink up

Double-dose caffeine
homeward on a long haul flight—
hydration is key.

Hollow

We look on in awe
vast swathes of our countryside
hollowed out by mines

Past

Photo of a street mural depicting Singaporean children playing board games in their home in the 70s.

A different time—
echoes of a life gone by,
etched in street murals.

Defiant

Photo of the silhouette of a leafless tree at sunset.

Face-off with the sun
in the middle of nowhere,
one tree stands its ground.

Prime

photo of the village landscape with green and brown patches

Amidst green patches,
stripped of life; bald surfaces,
prime real estate.
