During one of the power lunches, two weeks ago, there was a talk about mirror. How we look at others and how it’s actually a reflection of ourselves. I haven’t written any new poetry in a long while, they’ve been coming far in few in between, and definitely not on a positive platform. So I’m […]

JY and His, remember when I wrote Sweet Serene while we were in KK? And then you guys begged and pleaded for me to write this? Well, after more than half a year with only the last two lines in mind, I finally got the inspiration at 5am in the hotel room during that sleepless […]
