POETRY: Last of the thoughts 1

I remember how I look up the sky,

waiting for the stars to fall.

Imagining that you'll gonna be in it,

in the twinkles beside the moon so bright.

Every blink and every shutter leads to just one photograph,

developing gradually in the dim of the night.

And then lights were all too deep, a chasm of paradise over

the eyes too keen.

And finally from the moment of great desperation, I saw you...

Stars after stars, connecting the blinking lights.

There had occurred a seemingly impossibility,

But this wonder leads me to thinking,

that forever...

Your face will be my constellation.

Life Today /vol. 2/

What am I thinking just about right now? As a prologue to this self-proclaimed novel, let me first describe this wondrous night of 28th where November is just about to lose its glorious turn in this year of the sheep. Well, the noises were really evident with entertaining voices that were overlapping in a series of changing channels; the night has been splashing icey rains since the weather station announced to has been monitoring a possible typhoon; the smell of freshly brewed coffee that was left intact under my nostrils as I was drinking it earlier before I got home; the frenzied emotion I have feeling as I finally kiss my bed goodnight after that long and tiring battle for eternal city traffic. So imagine how it was entirely engaging (or probably not) to put my thoughts into a thousand repeated letters which I can call my blog. And yeah that was one hell of an introduction! As I am clinging with the literal scenarios of my daily life, I have come to unde...

Saving Santa

I wasn't able to post this during holiday seasons. Anyways, here it is. Is Santa will finally come to town? "You better watch out. You better not cry. You better not pout. I'm telling you why..." Most probably you had sung it with joyous laughter and nostalgic smiles thinking that Christmas has already giving massive excitement to everyone most especially when you have thought of spending it with the ones you truly loved. But not everyone has given this kind of opportunity. More often than not, Filipinos (including you) value practicality up to the point when you are ready to exchange series of most celebrated holidays to years of servitude away from your families. But moments later you have trouble remembering when the last live hugs and kisses you had with them were, considering that your mind has only been seeing portraits and virtual images of them for the longest period of time. Others call this a long-distance relation...

HOUSE BILL 5225 (VIOLATION KEPT HIDDEN)

Sometimes violation cannot be seen. We are restricted to label them as one because we are busy pushing ourselves to the waves of narrow-minded people. I fully remembered the day when I was walking alone inside a not so famous mall, scrubbing my shoulders to the full-length windows of different stores and making wishes that all of these clothes and shoes could be mine forever (fingers crossed!) while sipping my favorite nai cha (milk tea). After an hour of walking and wishing and sipping, I just suddenly felt a need for bathroom. I searched for one and when I am about to enter the comfort room (it is not for comfort, seriously), a guard or whatever you called it suddenly waved at me and said, "Ma'am bayad po muna." I felt the raged of blood inside my system and asked her, "Ha? Bakit po may bayad? Diba po public toilet ito?" And then she replied with uneasiness, "May bayad po five pesos, kung ayaw niyo po doon na lang kayo mag c-r...
