my thoughts my company

My thoughts are my company this bus journey 
When I would rather not dig out my book to read pr my laptop to work or my phone to watch something on netflix

ee cha kway dreams

Stuck in a windowless room on a windy  day,
The heart yearns for ee cha kway
I can't spell it but to want to eat it
I can just about imagine it

The deep fried stretchy dough 
Greasing my fingers...
The soft inside a comfort I long for
Oh to bite off a hunk of ee cha kway
this cold december afternoon 

The crispy outside the soft doughy inside, he grease stained paper holding it,  oiling you palm as you chomp your way thru it
How I long to bite off a hunk of ee cha kway this cold december afternoon

english without lit

The study of english language without literature is like having plain rice for lunch everyday
Necessary but bland, and short on vitamins if I may add 
Literature completes the meal with taste and nutrition 

People can actually enjoy a good rich life without the rice.  

But plain rice is plain boring. 

Nice once in awhile comforting. But that's it. 

What kind of language teachers talk about language without literature?
