in and out
they go
of the pubs and karaoke bars
in tanjong pagar
a man with a twisted leg, ambling awkwardly
swaying packets of snacks in hands,
a small girl, fingers saying words in air,
“please help me, i am deaf and dumb,
buy my soft toys”
it's like a merry go round
of the pubs
one by one
over and over again
invisible, unseen
by the pubbers
happy on their stools
karaoking at mikes
laughing, talking
drinking, drinking
the forgottens
living at the fringes
in and out
they continue
