Farisa Zaffa Razak


Farisa Zaffa Razak is my niece -
She is the one in the black-n-white
Pullover spotting a headcover -
Grew up in Kuantan, Pahang,
Now studying geology,
In Ottawa, Canada;
One of the assignments
In her first semester -
An analysis of The Tempest,
by William Shakespeare;
Hey, what about the effects
Of the weather on surface cover,
Or the drilling for fossil fuel,
On the permafrost,
In the Far North?

hehe, thanx for the poem. i guess studying rocks all the time is kinda boring, so i need to take something totally different. and hey, literature sounds good...plus i really like my teacher back in college. he really pushes me into loving literature, which i finally am. i do wish i could write better n be inspirational. but i guess i still have lotsa work to do...hehe
