Kandila
Ako’y isang gamu-gamung nabihag ng iyong sinag
Lumalapit, lumilipad , pumipikit, pumipintig.
At bawat buto ko’y nanginginig at tila di mapigilan
Hinihiling lamang na di matupok ng iyong liyab.

Turn on the mimeograph
I recall the time it never rained,
not a single pour on my teacup.
21st of January, 2009,
under a small sturdy Nipa hut,
we were talking about our future,
constellations and voodoo dolls.
Lust, cochlea, paradigms, Jesus,
Bumble bees, cataracts and silent farts.
Now three years after, here we are,
lying on our death beds wishing we could turn back time
and just turn on the mimeograph..
Duplicate our lives for back up.

"
I tie a yellow ribbon around the loose grip
As I see you slowly drifting farther than my reach
No more pocketful of wedding.It’s time for you to sing.

Friends and foes
All but fools
Trying to salve
Their hidden wounds
I am here, oh so inlove
But I just don’t know what to do.
November mood, november mood.

Something I can never tell
It’s an hour past midnight and
I’m stuck to what have been my past
visions flicker and sting like bees,
voices i’ve heard before kept knocking on my ear
And as I try to fight the urge to give in
to give in to the horrors of my past
the dampness of the earth suddenly tickled my feet
that gives me a bit of sensation.
When is the right time to let go?
For what reason?
Why?

Boogers and phlegms
No, no, no..
Don’t cough it all out
Spare some for next year
Summer’s just around the block
That’ll make flu run with fear
No, no, no..
