that source is unreliable!!!
the prostitute thing is totally WRONG
Ahh... so it's physical cleanliness they care about, not moral cleanliness. Respectable Gentlemen are brutally scolded for leaving public lavatories in a state of mild dumplinghood; meanwhile, prostitutes roam the streets unhampered as the city basks in an unflushed dung-bowl of sleaze.
Is that why you deleted my comment? Or did you click on the X instead of the 'Reply'?
Wait... no.
Yes.
I also think it's really excellent that you distinguish between "A more descriptive title might have X" and "Maybe a more descriptive title might have X".
A notch below staggeringly cack.
Aren't you proud of Singapore's prosperity?
"Once a colonial outpost, Singapore has developed into one of the world's most prosperous places - with glittering skyscrapers and a thriving port."

The line "Once more I sleep none" is so ungrammatic it pretty much ruins the rest of the poem, some punctuation would also help.
I'm confused about how you intended for the phrase "of delicate was" to be grammatical and relevant, instead of just being a cutesy Ben Harper-ish affectation. Would you mind explaining it to me? Thanks,

Would you agree that the song "Driftwood" by Travis is the most insidious and unnecessarily popular song ever?
Do you intend to provide these extratextual explanations with all copies of your poem, or will you just assume that anyone who doesn't get it is hopelessly dim and unworthy?
Thanks.
