Ang Alamat ng Walang Forever
Bakit at paano nga ba
Na ang tawag sa
Kanilang isinuko o isinurrender
Laban man o hindi ay “Walang Forever”?
Kapag nais ka nilang sumuko
Sasabihin nila ito
Uso ito sa mga bina-busTED
Bangungot ng mga broken-hearTED
Narinig ko na ito sa TED mga 2013
Bago ako doon pangalawang beses paalisin
At nang ako sa Crim i-transfer
Isinulat kong motto: “CapSU Forever”
Aba! Meron paring ganong bukambibig
Hindi ba't kaysarap sa pandinig?!
Parang hangarin ko ay kinokontra
Bakit? Ano bang ginawa ko sa kanila?!
TED o Crim ba ang talagang may pakana?...
O meron lamang nagdidikta sa kanila?
WALAng mahirap kung WALAng korap
Sabi ng may pakana ng DAP
DAPalan music ay laganap
Para akong china-chopchop
Chachara… chachaRA…
Mwah2x! Chup2x!... sabi ng kanta
Charap na charap ang panot na beybi
Sa nilulutong “break-up” ni mineral mommy
Na habang kanilang tinatapos
Bumagsak isang mabagsik na unos…

Ang Alamat ng Epic Fail
Bakit at paano nga ba
Na ang tawag sa
Kanilang idiniskarga o idinerail
Tao man o hindi ay “Epic Fail”?
Istrukturang hindi natapos
Dahil budget ay kinapos
O mga taong itinaktak
Dahil itinuring nang kanilang latak
Gaya ni CJR Corona at JRobredo
Aba mga kasabayan ko sa “Epic Year” na ito
Pare-pareho kaming idiniskarga
Taong 2012 sa aming mga opisina
Sabay ang TED Secretary
Sa Secretary ng DILG
Na sa ere naglaho
At si Mar Roxas umupo
Ito ang epiko ng panay pang-aagaw
Gaya ng isang mula sa Mambusao
Na noong 2002 ako sa Top 1 pinaalis
Ngayong 2012, taga-Mambusao pinatugis?!
Tinugis si Labao - #OrasNa ng laglagan!
Parang “Laglag-Bala” sa mga paliparan
Laglagan talaga ang trip ng mga Dilawan
Parang yung sa Drug Trade na “Onsehan”
Oras na talaga ng mga mang-aagaw
Mga Liberal na salimpapaw
Parang yung mga kaaway
Sa Epiko ng Panay.

*Alamat ng Kanilang mga Expressions
Seeing through emotions
And letting go of them all slowly one by one
devotion
Pain, happiness
Part of a life journey wholesome
Deftness
Enjoy
Dusted and done
Boy
Seeing through emotions
Part of a life journey wholesome
Boy

I become nostalgic
longingly when reminisce good old cheerful times
dive in quick
Romantic dreams
Fresh, hopeful, innocent dimes
Joy Screams
Why now
Unpleasant climes
Bow

aba Maba Rhaba Grabba Rue
Strawberry thief, I see you
You may have this one and that one too
We’re not much for strawberries, me and Pru
don’t have to sneak; we will give them away
We’re in the blue house down by the bay
Aba Maba Rhaba Grabba Rue
We’ll have them wrapped and waiting for you
I know here and there I stand
to surmount a hurt of unknown
differences, if not something bad.
The devil may go anticlockwise
but, I how dear
how bold, I know I supposed.
Supposing I have to start
start from the past century
then, how many cups of tea or coffee
I should drink tonight?.
Or supposing this country of mine
I wished to change with another, another
how to endure and where.
Or supposing Africa and America
and Europe and Asia and Australia
are continents, how technocracy or aba?.
Like just brother the years to come
the wind a thing, the world
like em, em, em,..........
somewhat is something
which I felt is this sometimes wither
in life.

agnostics’ have no hope
they cause Christians to pray for their lost, lonely souls
can they cope?
doubting His word
they can’t believe one God controls
absurd!
speak of
One who consoles
love
agnostics’ have no hope
they can’t believe one God controls
love
Love, laughter and learning
The one with whom you can agree to disagree
Sweet yearning
Partners for life
Loving each other is the key
Man-wife
Transcend
from me to we
Blend
Love, laughter and learning
A li'l adjustment is the key

Lok at me, and look at me again,
do look again, now look deep within
I smile through tears, I bear all your pain!
trust in me and let me wash your sins,
cross I carry is of your burden
blood you see is your blood through my skin!
path I walk on are hardship laden,
the lashes that cut me hate smitten,
I take pain so your visions widen!
from the day the apple was bitten,
evil has coursed through all of your lives,
I come to redeem thee, it’s written!
lashes bite like million bees from hives,
they may crucify me high with nails,
trust in god for he takes what he gives!
be amongst you ever in spirit,
look at me, and look at me again,
reborn, see me in each child there is,
I smile through tears, I bear all your pain!

shadowy silhouette
uncertainty ripping through unravelling mind
cheeks get wet
tears roll in fear
acrophobia grips confined
comes near
someone
falls in love, blind
won
shadowy silhouette
acrophobia grips confined
won
Let go of, to get to
All we see unreal, why for then confusion
Joy renew
There’s no hero
The manifest, an illusion
Zero
Thoughts stream
The conclusion
Dream
Let go of, to get to
The manifest, an illusion

In money, a zero
is the round, empty symbol that cannot transcend;
no hero.
It's worthless- yet
When added to a number's end-
you're set!
It soars!
Grants more to spend!
Scores!
In money, a zero-
when added to a number's end-
scores!

On gravel mountain path,
underneath shadowed pine crowns: friends ride mountain bikes,
where none hath
neath sapphire sky.
Roller coaster, fun lighting strikes,
runs bye.
Wearing
down bends, turnpikes,
in
swooping dust inward wrath.
Their enlivening heartbeat spikes.
Win!

Life, mixed with fun, grants hope-
this needed equalizer for our ups and downs
helps us cope.
Without real fun
to relieve stress in all we do-
we're done.
Great perks

works!
to relieve stress in all we do-
this needed equalizer for our ups and downs-

But, without exception,
an imprecation to the old, a shibboleth
perception
then filters through:
the final, awful end of death
in view.
To some,
just their next breath
comes.
But, without exception
the final, awful end of death
comes.

This is a minichu:
6/12/3, 4/8/2, 2/4/1, 6/8/1
Aba, cBc, dbD, ABD
I hope I have used these properly:
imprecation - curse
shibboleth - a part of speech that distinguishes one group from another,
in this case, the young from the old, distinguished by whether or not
they consider their mortality
