Long Valentino Poems

For the Valentine’s season
Send forth a tastefully written card
To any wonderfully wise person
Is a good endeavor. That’s not bad.

However, sending exquisite flowers
Is the best, sweetest archetypal way
To say, I love you many times over
Over, and...

This is a story about Freddie and Flo,
They lived in Baltimore a long time ago.
It might be called a May-September romance
And shows how love can blossom if it's given a chance.
Flo taught Sunday School, her...

My sister Annick fixed me, locked me in, with cold, blue eyes as she sat down slowly next to me at the table. “I’m a surgeon,” she said, not quite casually, “a board certified surgeon.”

Sa isang malamig na sulok ng lilim,
girian ay lumalalim,
liwanag laban sa dilim,
araw ay palubog ng palubog,
dahan-dahan,
mahinahon,
ngunit ang iniwa'y dumudugong kalawakan,
pulang-pula,
ito ay rebolusyon ng pag-ibig,
himagsikan sa araw ni santo valentino,
tulad ng spaghetii al' amatriciana,
sa ating harapan...

Our mouths don't tell boys Iike us
how to play hide-and-seek 
under the shades of valentino love 
when we're just toddlers of roses
mastering the wild game of love,
and song of songs from Solomon's verses
whose megaphone had...

Whoever invented the Kiss
I'd like to shake their hand
But I won't
 
Because I'm shortsighted and always miss
It wouldn't be such a problem
If I had Mick Jaggers's lips
But the boss
My Mrs doesn't like it
And slaps me...

“Sunshine Superman and the Oriental Nightfish” 

Mellow Yellow
cool for katz, 
is chillin’

with his dream,
Oriental Nightfish,
in her universe 

Wings,

his way 
into 
my love, 

good  
for flirtatious 
vagabonds

we have it,

It was always the case,
I was never Valentino.
No matter 
what chatter took me for.


Sure, like you
I enjoyed the duel.
But barbed conversation
blunts the appetite.


No,
my odyssey
was not for conquest, 
or trophies for Ithaca


I sought a world 
reflexively...

Considering the bitter cold of this wintry Sunday,   
even those roses will freeze in less than two hours;
I'll do away with flowers, not forgetting a chocolate heart,

Amami ora mentre
Posso ricambiare il tuo amore
Amami ora quando, a mio agio
Posso accendere e spegnere il fuoco della lanterna
Amami ora mentre, di nuovo
Posso espirare, inspirare e respirare facilmente
Amami ora mentre
Vedo chiaramente la tua bellezza
Non aspettare...

Wading in with human desires sweet sugar coating gloss
 
Strengths are nurtured and grown from our creator's breath of light
Filtering through densely chaotic thoughts stony cold walls

On the petaled opening flower in tinted teased naked hues
dripping such savage shades within fire buds

Lips moving, but there’s no sound ...

I am holding roses, but not from yours,
Wishing this love note was written by you…
I guess this time is not meant for this lonesome heart,
But I’m still wishing, that your love will find its way...
