Essence of Barbi

Human portrait,
      -A work of art.
Asian beauty.

Personal truth,
      -A necessary filter.
Brute honesty.

Inspirational story,
      -A fulfilling journey.
Human strength.





*This poem is about a woman that I came across on the internet that has 
overcome great obstacles. *

As Luck Would Have It

We are so lucky, you and I. 
Our lives, we live-
We live in an evolution of sights,
Of sound,
Of feeling. 

I wake up, rested, right as pie. 
My life, I live-
I live to embrace the grace,
And wonder
So freeing!

Philippines

smell the magnolia,
feeling the breeze on your face.
tasting coconut.

Lumpia (Epulaeryu)

Sweet chili sauce for dipping
paper thin rice wrap
ground pork, diced carrots inside
eyes closed--golden crunch
lucid breath
Ace!

~This is a Epulaeryu to Joseph Spence!~

Maturity

A profound knowledge.
A revised delight.
In total independence.
In total control.
Taking in the language of wisdom.

The Boudoir

She was a pallor woman, says the mirror on the 
Wall above her bureau:  A tranquil woman too, 
Says her diary which lay near her bed on the
Floor; and a deathless woman, says the crimson
Stain upon her blouse that lay draped over a 
Chair in the corner of the room; but not one 
For sunlight, say the black velvet cloak that
Lay neatly on her bed.

She lived alone, says the empty room next to
Hers; She was barren, says the long black
Dress that was worn; money was not a problem, 
Says the antique furniture around the room; and
Her heart cold, says the silence that floats
Forever throughout the dusty bedchamber.

Something went wrong, says the lingering scent 
Of death in the room.  The faded painting -of 
Darkness on a cold winter night- on her
Wall, say her life was an immoral one; untouched
Morsels left on delicate china that sits on the 
End table, says she never felt hunger.  And her
Victims?  Never to be found or seen again-their
Bodies left lifeless on some unknown terrain.
Something went wrong, they say.


This is a dark poem in the form of  "Abandoned Farmhouse" by Ted Kooser

Mind Growth

In a sea of brown ground,
there she stood.
-unique-
Suddenly understanding the regularity of it.
Of how each must feel a separation from the world.

But here she was.
-woman-
Seemingly feeling the power of it.
Fully grasping the concept that knowledge is 
                                  more so everywhere than here.

Accepting her position,
there she grew.
-conscience-
Tenderly acknowledging others around.
In which their feelings were translated 
                                         by her own understanding.
Otherwise adjacent to the world.

And here they became.
-companions-
Purely and with complete honesty.
The complete knowledge of 
                                               self, others, tribulation, and completion.

Serenity

I have fallen into serenity.
 In the sweet complacent symphony
Of the humble mementos of life.

I have reached into my soul.
 In the core of my heart identity
Into the attainment of unfeigned love.

My Beloved

Moments to behold -a twinkle of favor-
An entitative fusion -Of a love so divine-
I have fallen;
Fallen into immense rapture.
In this interminable moment of solace.
