Mama, paano na ako?
tila bulag sa aking buong pagkatao,
Papa, hindi po,
kailanman ako’y hindi nagloko,
maawat man lang sa mga katagang nakaloloko,
hindi lahat ng kamalian ay kabilang ako.

I’m not a demigod
Emotions runs in my heart
I’ve feelings
I can weep
I’m a boy and not a demigod
Master
Nooks and crannies of our land is infiltrated
Infiltrated with their wickedness and evil deeds
Deeds they’ve done to intentionally curse the mass
Waiting for What in the Bank
I’ve been here five minutes or maybe
my whole life
long time
waiting
waiting in the bank
The Wanderer
The wanderer moves on,
Leaving behind the burnt up logs
Few morsels of uneaten tasteless food
Forced Sunsets
Been waiting for something
never sure of coming.
DROWNED
Do not hurry to bury me
For I shall wait to see your face
Among the few who come to say their
Last farewell.
DISTRACTIONS
I write
As night begins to dance to
An uncannily serene tune
A trickle of water somewhere
Not ugly
it is not the beauty alone
but what has been done
to preserve human nature
Walkin’ with You
I live on the canal between two small peculiar lakes
almost every day I walk around the big one, a lovely walk, long and warm
the water is so peaceful, the birds at rest, the palm trees
singing of home on San Francisco Bay
Don’t Quit
It hurts sometimes
How much I love you
More Each Day
I need you next to me
To feel the warmth
I want to touch you
I want to hold you again
