a ghost haunts the country of Laos
sieving through jungles
crackling twigs because
it has not yet died
beware of it

I had pondered over complaining about my life yet again
Filling up this pages with idle talk
Sharing past and present experiences
Politicizing my perception of reality
Writing about friends i had failed...
Relationships i had lost

HANUKKAH
Festival of Lights/ Feast of Dedication,

As a kid, Hanukkah
was the Jewish replacement for Christmas,
But even better!

We Played...

While the rest to their fate resigned,

To begin from zero he determined.
