The Silver Man

Have you seen him before?

We were at Woodlands MRT walking home when Zubair pointed to a crowd of pple. And then i saw this Silver Man.

He stood there like a statue. It's only when pple put some money in his basket then he will press his bird who will flap its wings then he will make some robotic slow-mo move.

I was sooooooo entertained i contributed something! I've never given any buskers anything before! But its like so refreshingly different from the ordinary aunty/uncle singing by the roadside.

on his money basket, there was an ID/license to busker. The photo on the ID showed a Malay man in his mid or late 50s. That's what made me so moved to give him something.

But i cldnt help imagining what would happen if some crook took advantage of him and run off with The Silver Man's earnings? I mean it'd surely take awhile to react from being a statue for the longest time. and Because i noticed there were quite a lot of $2 notes in there!

Well anyways... i wish The Silver Man good luck and thank you for giving me .. giving us all something different.
