Conozco tu cara

I know your face

I know it only too well in
wakeful and sleeping dreams

I have seen it many times
before in the corners of
my eyes

I have glimpsed it in the
blniding rays of the sun

I know it as the face that
vanishes in the darkness

I know your face, do you
know mine?

Breathe now for tomorrow the world will end
and when it comes you will no longer have
any use for breath nor air.

Walk now for tomorrow the earth will crumble
at your feet and there will be no sand to
carry your footsteps and soil to remember
your footprints.

Look now yonder for tomorrow the horizon will
fall into nothing until all but blackness
covers what used to be the skies.

Listen now to the whispers for tomorrow there
will be nothing but thunder and flurry until
finally deafening silence falls to your ears.

Touch now the smooth and rough edges of these
rocks for tomorrow there will only be emptiness
and the cold wind of nothingness.

Sleep now so tomorrow you will not have to wake
but if you do, pray wish that this all be but
a dream.


Unmemory

Remind me not to look back at my memories but
that I read them as if they were not my own.

I fear they will only bring me sadness when I
reminisce and regret if I remember.

Too many days have fleetingly passed before
my eyes and too many days have been left
unremembered.

I do not know what to make of this life construed
upon the fragile edges of my memories.

A life built on ruins and rubble, too many and
too undone, too brittle, the puzzle has not begun.

God taught me a lesson in life. I wanted one thing he gave me another. I wanted beauty and was endeared by sophistication; he gave me instead simplicity and humility both of which bear such value no man can find. I coveted wealth yet in its place he blessed me with friends, which no amount of riches could replace. He gave me courage when I turned to fear and strength when I gloomed in tears. I sought knowledge yet he blessed me with discernment, enough to figure out who I want to be. In the end it all meant one thing, freedom.
Two weeks of prolific energy

An Ode to the Steadily Forgotten

It is a sad life you live
Your footsteps are shadowed by weakness
Your footprints marred by regret
Blood trails the path you tread
And whispers fill the air you breathe
You had a name no one remembers
An existence everybody forgets
A presence nobody feels
And your heartbeat is the only sound that fills your head
Pray tell me who you are, you who live the life of the steadily forgotten.

Meanderings

Mistakes must be forgotten and victories remembered,
failures buried and triumphs glorified.
Look back at those titans we slew and how heavily
they fell to the earth.
They were once great, great as we are now.
And they fell as surely as we too shall fall by
the hands of those who aspire for the same greatness.
But it is our time now.
We are the predators and they the prey.
Take heed the call of glory and bring forth what is duly yours.

To Age

You look almost like her but without a doubt definitely older.
The lines of your face are more refined. The curve of your back
stronger and more defined. The way you speak more mature. It is
obvious that you have been tempered by time and age has brought out
your bittersweet character.

Sa Mga Lumipas na Sandali

Madalas akong wala sa sarili
Tahimik o di maka-imik
Naghahanap ng kung anumang bagay na di maaaring
angkinin at di lubusang maintindihan
Umuusisa sa kung anumang bagay na di kayang hawakan
at di man lang madampian
Ganon talaga ang buhay ika nga
Pawang walang katapusan habang tayo'y bata
ngunit paiksi nang paiksi sa ating pagtanda.

Sa bukas

Sindalisay ng wikang kinagisnan
Sintamis ng pagibig ng inang hinahagkan
Ito ang yapos ng maliwanag na bukas na
aking dinaratnan
Malayo at makislap
Malapit ngunit mailap
Ito ang kapalaran nating lubos
na mapagpanggap

Me

I have yet to uncover the ends of my hubris.
My passion it seems has no bounds.
My anger and loathing are apparently endless.
And my desire infinite.
My mind would be everywhere and anywhere were
it no for the fear, regret and shame that
bind it.
Shadows of the past unforgotten and unresolved,
distinct in their madness and strong
is their will.

June 10 2004

Di ko nais na maging ganito. Na umabot sa sukdulan
ang lahat. Na pumanaw ang ngiti sa labi mo.
Na gumising ang luha sa iyong mata. Ni minsan hindi
ko hiniling na mawala sa iyong piling.

Aking mundo

Aking mundo, wag mo akong sakalin.
Di ako makahinga sa kapal ng usok,
di makakita sa dilim ng langit,
at di makagalaw sa kapal ng yurak
na bumabalot sa akin.
Aking mundo, bitiwan mo ako.
Matagal mo na rin akong hinahagkan
ngunit nais ko nang kumawala.
Hawakan mo na lang ang aking kamay,
yapusin mo ako sa isang huling
sandali at pakawalan.
Aking mundo, paalam.

Apparently it doesn't matter how long I haven't seen you or how long I haven't touched you. Neither does it matter how long we haven't talked or even how long I've forgotten you. Clearly because I saw you again yesterday, touched you, talked to you and then I remembered that once before I fell for you and I fall for you once again. And now I can't forget. I can't forget how I saw you smile, felt you touch and heard you laugh. And I can't remember how I could ever forget.

I am a glowing shard of steel.

Strike me and I will bend to your will.
Douse me and I will harden like concrete.

I am young.

Teach me and I will learn.
Loose me into the world and I will grow strong.

The metal is hot, strike it!

The transporter




The transporter caught red-handed by the copperss...

I was just wondering, why are the drinks at convenience stores never cold? It's not like these things fly off their refrigerator shelves at 1 a minute, so there is absolutely no excuse for them not to be. I'm betting that this is one huge global conspiracy to drive up the demand for ice.


The gang...



The sikyo...



The drive-thru girl...



Nie...getting thinner in the states.

The Maersk Basketball Team

from left to right

Aileen, Kitty, Mang Romy, Chris, Carlo L., Dan, Wilky, Sid, Carlo I., Rene, Me, Chris L., Neil, Oliver and Brian.

In action...

on one hand, indelible ink



and on the other...




But some would not be justified if left without explanation



Kristine Jaka and some other girl. Alas, I wasn't able to take pictures of the scrumptious Pony Girls. :(



Mild Seven Girls or maybe they just happened to be hanging out by the Mild Seven booth.



Three Mild Seven promo girls and one apparently ecstatic yet horny thin guy.



Their best pose yet.



But some stories are better told with images, not words.

The Bondage Girls









Every picture has a story.



This is Lally, Brian's girlfriend. She works as an event planner for RX 93.1 but resigned just yesterday. And that means no more freebies, VIP entraces to events & premieres, and no more FHM parties. This picture was taken around about 830 pm yesterday while waiting for one of our friends. We were on our way to what could be our last free event, the FHM President Elect Party at Libis.

Some funky words:

solecism
- something deviating from proper, normal or accepted order
- a breach of etiquette or decorum

simulacrum
- image, representation
- an insubstantial form or semblance of something

and the best for last

collywobbles
- bellyache
