Lear's Cordelia

Jerat

Kala pertama kupandang
Pesona di wajahmu
Saat itu hatiku kan terpana
Tiada ragu lagi tiada bimbang lagi
Semuanya ingin kumiliki
Gelisah jiwaku ini
Dilanda bayanganmu
Kau mengkoyak dinding keangkuhanku
Kauciptakan rindu
Kau buat hatiku terjerat tali cinta
Resah...resah...
Pun tiada menentu
Bila semalam pun tiada bertemu
Mimpi...mimpi...
Kan terasa oh..sepi
Bila kau tiada
Nampakkan senyummu

(Harvey Malaiholo)

An Austin Chase Moment

(Follow, stop, get out and get in; four simple steps, baby, just four simple steps, ok? Not run, fetch, heel, roll-over or play dead, hahah)

Dear Austin Powers, Is it shyness or arrogance? Is it fair for a man to protect his own image at the expense of a woman’s reputation? That had been the contentious issue that I had faced with JKS, AO, etc. That I’m engaged in this monologue once again reflect a conflict of values – status/money/power vs. self-concept/dignity/self-worth. Perhaps you need to grow in tandem with me? It must be grating your nerves to have a mirror that refuse to lie, a court jester or Fool who speaks the brutal truth, a Cordelia to your Lear, not an obsequious flatterer and deceiver. Ciao
