"The Other"

you know how some developers in the entertainment industry come up with a sequel or impromtu a triology because and just because of the reason there is a part one? no? to help illustrate my point, Star Wars episode II: Attack of the Clones...(or was it called something else i cant remember), The Ring 2 (jap version), The Eye 2, all the Final Fantasy series etc....

it completely takes away the sincerity of the developers in fulfilling their "main" duty, which is to entertain us... unless it is a really good idea they could develope, or address anything they have missed out in the 1st part do they need a sequel right? its almost like for the sake of earning money..

game dev "this game sold alot of copies.. lets make a sequel and sell it too!"
*game dev makes a sloppy sequel*
"there, market it".

well, my point is, its Fathers Day today... and i feel that if i were to write my feelings down on a normal sentence, i would be writting down alot of sentences :p i chose a completly different alternative instead - poetry... not that ive not done it before, its because i did it for Mothers Day you readers might think im doing it because there existed "the other" (mothers day version).

this, is not a sequel. its not "The Other" poem as well. it stands alone and has nothing to do with whatever works ive done before.

so here you go Dad... a Haiku. hope you remember its Fathers Day today :)

p/s: i would've paid, if i had thought about it more. anyway, if i offered, it would be rejected. well, and IF i DID pay for the meal, it would be with my credit card, n would be paid by the "mountain" anyway, so it wouldn't make much difference. hehe watever.
