What Time Is It? by ANYPEN(m): 6:58pm On Nov 08, 2012
WHAT TIME IS IT?
Do you think it’s the time to sit ELEGANTLY in a corner of an air-conditioned hall as a young banker of a bank managing a DOOMED economy?
OR
Do you think it is time to walk around with shoulders high as a young OIL company employee where the BOSSES are rogues and THIEVES?
OR
Do you think it’s time to hold on to CHALK and happily hoard and award SCORES as a young lecturer in a university that has no FACILITIES?
OR
Is it the time to go to your shop as ROUTINE to battle the electricity generating machine that is now a MENACE to the society?
OR
Is time to gnash teeth and COMPLAIN while holding on to certificates and studying every signboard and space for VACANCY?
OR
Or do you think it’s time to turn FRIENDS to FOES for what they could give and FAMILY to ENEMY for what they couldn’t do to your needs?
If you ask me what time it is, I think it is the time to SPEAK!

If you’re a YOUTH, no matter what you do or where you are, this is the time to SPEAK. In those days, it’s the WALLS that has ears but in our days, ears are everywhere in the AIR so let us speak and keep speaking until they can yield to HEAR.

To treat a sore, you must first open it up. If this write-up DISGUST you, it’s okay ‘cause it is an open SORE!
