Wind And I
Wind - the hackneyed word
in my verses
coupled with
pronoun ' I ' -
an overused
I 'd like to evade
those two
but find
i am frail
to do
Wind and I
always
trap inside my mind
but nothing
prevail

on liberty

therefore expats are here
tax free
where is the irony?
tax limits liberty

Opportunity And Ability
I was in Osmena Park
one sharp noon
Two twilight-aged folks
were talking while playing
chess board game
one said to his opponent
my son has the ability
but my son has no opportunity
and the other said
my son has opportunity
but my son lacks ability
I had learned

sex ***** SEXUAL DESIRE
Momentous meeting
High desire
Mutual ecstacy
Touching
Flesh to flesh
Every skin is hot
Rushing
Oozing fluid
Blushing sweat
Feel now
Retreat not
Lust is to lust
Open wide
There is love
About to enter
Bone exploding
Trembling orgasm
Sensual expression
Breathing fires
and

humor ***** BORING SPEAKER
A boring speaker during our graduate school orientation for transferees and freshmen arousing incidentally the collapsing audience eagerness to listen her long chilly speeches until she highlighted much this line, ' In the Philippines, the higher the educational degree, the higher the tuition fees '. Then thunderous ovation applauded.

humor ***** JUDGE THE SUSPECT
A rape victim is being interrogated by the prosecutor, when she details anything about the rapist, all spectators are eyeing suspiciously to the presiding judge.
Seems all descriptions attribute perfectly tot the jury's physical features, gestures, mole and facial aura.
Hopefully, this is only a mistaken identity or simply a person's similarity.

early days ***** PRETTY BUTTERFLY
my childhood poem
there is a pretty butterfly
merrily waits the sun to shine
with purple wings she uses to fly
over the wind, a passer-by
this pretty butterfly
flying low and high
beneath cloudless blue sky
above flowers show un-shy
when i cry, mine eyes would dry
as I stare the pretty butterfly
If I have wings i use to fly
she never leave me and says goodbye

bloodline ***** LYRIC TO MY BRO AND HIS GUITAR
Strum ….
Strum the strings
Of your brown guitar
Brings with me
To the music star
Lively as you are
Far in the awful nights
In the hour of silence
Plays me a song
With ease and delight
Plays no more
A sad song
Let the people hear
A refrain
Of imperial tune
Strum….
Strum the strings

society ***** CHAOS UNITED WORLD
This is only my collective
view doesn't affect
global identity
organizations, associations
unions, earthly dogmas
united beliefs, principles
upholding common interest
tribal goals
fraternal aims
foundation's extended arms
objective connotations
country's unification
united nations
anti-conflict anti-war
creating society as one
and general outcome
a more chaotic world
