I Am Wanton Mee



I am Wanton Mee
It is obvious to see
I am QQ
If you hug-hug me

I am Wanton Mee
Can't you see?
Those wrinkly lumps
Defining the sex of me

I am Wanton Mee
You think I'm healthy?
Not by much
From those chye-sim veggies

I am Wanton Mee
Often a complex mystery
Got flavours of things
Cloaked in soupy invisibility

I am Wanton Mee
Fleshed and not bony
I am char siew white
Red from you teasing me

I am Wanton Mee
And you so desire me
Tired of Mee Pok Man
You come to like the wanton me!

(Inspired from the question "Which hawker food are you?" ;-) (Mee Pok Man is a local movie from eons ago!)
