My Minah Wife

I was relaxing one corner
When I spot a hot chick from far
I smiled and passed her my number
My love story starts with Minah

Minah's a girl I barely knew
But one bad day I strayed a shot
Within the weeks her tummy grew
So off we went to tie the knot

Wanted a wedding by the block
But Minah's mum said, "So low class?"
"I want grand music and a jock"
"And make sure the venue's five stars!"

Hotel banquets and high dowry
Just so that others will envy
My credit card runs on empty
But hell, at least Minah's happy

When minahs be somebody's wife
They keep no watch on their damn rice
Barely a year of blissful life
My dearest mate grew twice her size

One day she said "House feels empty!"
"Did you not promise a good life?"
"I want a big Plasma TV"
So owe to Courts husband and wife

Then Minah grew fat and lazy
She starts a craving for a car
One day she marched up right to me
"Sayang, I want a Toyota!"

But I tell her I've cash no more
My bank account's right to the floor
She said, "Sayang, we can borrow"
"Installment plans, cash down zero!"

Minah is now proud and happy
With lots to show off to her friends
But they know not the reality
We're hanging on to our wits' ends

My minah wife now makes me low
With nothing more left to adore
A husband joy turns to sorrow
Fret not, I've got space for three more :)

Note: No, I'm not married. This is just a satirical poem that jabs at the vexations of our society. If you find this site offensive, perhaps you may find a more suitable reading here

    i like your poems. sweet yet hot. i like it that way. oooh!

    anyway, just to share, i once was involved with a website meant to advise Malay youths on the many social problems facing them especially sexuality issues. My role was then as the "dear sister/aunt" writer.

    Initially, all went well. I wrote many articles and and we received good responses. I was encouraged.

    One fine day, a friend alerted me about an advertisement that was placed on the main page. I could not believe what she said so i visited the site.

    I was appalled by what i saw. It was an adv by a traditonal health care company promoting all the "accessories" to having a good time (initimately i mean). There was even a graphic depicting the product that can help lengthen male "alat sewaktu" (hope you can understand this - i am being polite here).

    I shoot an sms to the web master demanding an explanation. I received a haughty "if you dont like it, dont visit it" answer. Wow! I shoot back a long sms telling him isnt it enough that practically three quarters of jamu shops in Spore promote related products that we have to do it online too? This site was meant to advise youth to stay away from sex and some opportunist adults are actually encouraging them and making it easy to purchase online!

    thats the last time i had any thing to do with them. Thank god, the site is closed now.

  2. maybe the focus shouldn't be to advise youths to stay away from sex but instead advise them how to do it safely?

  3. You are joking right? we are talking about Muslim youths here.

    read the poem again will you. i am sure u missed the points the writer trying to highlight.

    u dont want to start a marraige with a mistake do you ? And for Muslims, pre-marital sex is a BIG mistake.

    Last week news paper talked about a youth who had sex with 79 partners. God knows how many he impregnanted. Given his state of mind, you think he would care about safe sex? he has no self-control but other-people control.
    maybe chastity belt specially designed for him would work.

  5. hey, lets be fair here. why only the minah wife become the target? what about the hubby? read the poem. Isnt he suppose to be the head of the family and what he said mattered?

    is he such a jelly fish and only become sotong when he wants it?

    what is happening to men nowaday! just read the paper through out this year.

    During the cavemen period, no man would want to share his woman with any man. If he liked a woman, he went and carry off the woman all by himself.

    But what is happening now is one hapless woman being assulted by a group of able-bodied men and rape repeatedly! Man is becoming such a jelly fish that he needs other men to help him just to confront a woman that appeal to him. And he dont mind taking the left overs.

    I am glad i am not a man. I would be embarrassed to be identified with that species.

    The Prophet predicted that man would be an endangered species towards the end of time. The ratio of men to women is 1 : 50. From the number of half-men and jelly-fishes around nowadays, it would be sooner it seems.

  8. I think the whole point of NOT having sex before marriage are the wide-ranging social consequences.

    If a guy sleeps around and he impregnates a STUPID girl - [I say stupid because why did she allow herself to get knoocked up in the first place? Doesnt she know SHE will bear consequences, not the idiot who banged her ?? ] - and gets away with it..then drifts into yet another relationship, and the cycle repeats itself..he finally married and has his own kids...who grow up, meet another girl, sweet n pretty , a couple of years older, has sex with her and lo & behold turns out she is is his sister..then??? What if they have a kid before discovering that its his isster? Possible no? Its happening all the time in America...
