Phil's Visit

Coffee mate of my doctoral days
Third visit to Singapore
Four days for the new year
Loves the food and gained blubber
Enjoys durian cheese tarts and frog porridge
But dislikes the ugly coffee foam
Walked from Raffles City to Clarke Quay
Stayed in Chinatown at Park 22
Room so tiny for a seventy
But was for the food and culture
Bought me an egg and bondaged cat
Smoked bananas that I love
Last visit was 3 years that
A good friend from down-under land
