Adobo

this is your recipe for adobo: 
a portion of brain --- yours. 
don't have one? 
take mine. 
a piece of your lungs --- no wait. 
here's a cigarette: spice. 
take a teaspoon of tears --- 
yes, yours. 
turn it into stone --- this my 
teacher told me. 
your concoction is ready: stir, 
stir hard. 
now try it --- just try. 
you'll need it later. 
when you break your heart, 
it will come in handy. 
by then you will need that portion 
of brain: think, 
think good things. 
that piece of smoked lung --- breathe, 
slowly. 
that tear that is stone: melt it 
into tears again: cry

Beer

swing, my brother 
and swig 
your liver, brown - 
sink your teeth into mine
bermuda grass in my brain 
yet again 
and the left plank 
stands out. again.
here we are, both 
shooting arrows blind 
or are we just spineless?

Musing

it only takes a sideward 
glance 
to see you wave; my 
peripathetic mind 
takes in that sight of you. 
pain is but a stroke of luck 
and the decency of the hour 
id just a sideward glance that reminds 
me of my nature 
today i awoke with the consuming 
knowledge that i would 
abhor every passing minute 
you, so far up there, and i, 
alone... 
it makes me wonder, such a 
distressing thought, 
if by any chance you think of me too.

To Be One

i burn 
i indulge in the fire 
of my slitherin ride into you
indescribable warmth 
that touches, 
smoothens the 
toughness in me 
and conjures up 
libidinous urges 
that cannot be smothered
i am distraught 
nothing has ever felt 
so prodigiously agreeable
my wobbly hand 
slides slowly along 
the evenness of your 
long, velvety arm
sure as you and i 
are there 
the ephemeral bliss 
that is supposed to be 
is lengthened 
drawn out 
to fulfill our 
handsome desire 
to be one

Tell Me

tell me that 
when i held your hand 
you did not 
squirm 
that when you 
saw me come 
with the white rose in 
my hand 
you did not smile 
tell me that 
you did not long 
for me to kiss you
on second thought 
don't tell me 
i won't believe you

Thief

you are a thief 
you walk by me 
and take a part of me 
with you as you go 
you steal from me 
didn't u steal my 
eyes 
questioning seeking 
wanting 
and mt throat 
that's dry now because 
it seeks whimpers like 
a child 
you stole my skin 
that feels like it's not 
mine anymore, it's yours 
my legs that always 
lead me closer to your direction 
dinfing nothing but you 
and my lips you took them 
your name is their 
creed 
you stole me 
you are a thief
