Happy Merry Birthday Xmas
Let’s see…it’s Christmas eve, I’m home and I’m hammering away on my keyboard because I feel compelled to dust off this journal. In an hour, it’ll be Christmas and in six days, everyone will greet the dawn. Everyone except me. I’ll be sleeping again this year. That’s how it is and that’s how I want…

Kid, Get A Load of This
There are some things that I never thought I’d do when I was a kid. As a seven-year old kid living in the provincial side of the country, how could I dream of anything bigger than a house with a tree outside for shade? I never dreamed of living half my life in the city.…

Hello December, Welcome To The Ruins You Left Behind
Hello December, welcome to the ruins you left behind, to the left you’ll see the vase I kept which holds the wilting flowers of last year’s excuses. Let me not intrude but let me say, I think it’s time to put those away And replace them with nicer ones – Maybe stargazer insecurities Or budding…

Oh Kaligayahang Walang Hanggan: Ang Bloggables na Kay Tagal nang Itinatago
nagkasakit na ako sa sobrang frustration sa nagdaang linggo. Posible pala yon eh no. ang lagnatin na halos dahil sa sobrang hinanakit. tsaka, ang bigat pala sa dibdib. hindi naman kasi ako umaabot sa ganitong klaseng frustration. siguro ay dahil na rin sa tulong ng pag-iyak. dati kasi, pag umaabot na sa sukdulan ang frustration, idadaan ko na…

The Bus Goes A-mending
“Maybe today we’ll walk home,” I say as I sit on the stone, As I chew on the bit of wood That the pencil still has to offer I say, “maybe today we’ll walk home.” Or maybe today he’ll say it And the rush of young excitement flares As the hands draw closer and closer…

Ang Maging Iyo
Dati, pinangarap kong maging iyo, Tuwing nagniningning ang kalangitan Dahil sa mistulang luha ng kalawakan, Sumasagi ang mga gunita At minsa’y iilang mga alaala, Kung saan ako’y nakasagi sa panaginip Ng bukas na ikaw sa hangin ay ihip. Minsan pa’y pinangarap kong maging iyo, At minsan pa’y bumulong ang koro Ng iba’t ibang himig at…

Smile, You’re On Center Stage
I like your sleepy face. And your bad taste in ties, occasional stubble, you bargain-bin socks how bland you are, how you’re dramatic… How distant you are and how you smile at everyone… That you like stag beetles and rhino beetles… And college students. That your hands are very pretty…and you smell like tobacco. I’ve…

Sa Pagbilog ng Buwan
Sa susunod na bumilog At pumintig ang pulso Ng abuhing buwan, Bibilog, pipintig at tatangis yaring kaluluwang Ginawang kasangkapan. Humanda, humanda ka Ingatan ang pulsong pumipintig, At ika’y sasagpangin Ng asong nangangalit, Sasakmalin ka nang malupit. Maghintay, maghintay ka Hindi ito pasaring o banta, Humanda, humanda ka Pangako ito sa tala.

Selene or Hecate or Phoebe
His cheeks shone brilliantly – As was the common love cliché – Against the layers of moss and grime, And I think, how can such Perfection exist legally? He shudders again, Aye me, And turns his face to me Smiling, smiling in his dreams, When in this world can such Happiness exist legally? He murmurs…
