Poet’s soul: Selinaah posing with the ABR medal and certificate.
Passion is often the spark, but discipline is what keeps the fire alive, says poet M. Selinaah, a medical student and former national badminton player.
The 25-year-old sister of badminton doubles specialist M. Thinaah, who will be graduating medical school next month, earned the title “Grand Master” in the Asia Book of Records (ABR) for writing the longest melancholic poem in the region. Comprising 3,324 words and 118 stanzas, “Let Me Let You Go” chronicles the painful dissolution of a close friendship.
