You’re a Model

Share

You’re a Model

Tie your breath
Come out on stage
Parallel your chin with the floor
Wear a poker face
Lift your heel and hit the podium

Imitate a cat walk
Swing like the wind blows a hanging wardrobe

Ease your heartbeats…
By blinding yourself to aristocrats
Hear but the rhythm of your pace
Feel but in loved with your dress…
Though, it’s in fact ridiculous

Take a smooth turn
Aim your pulpit to the backstage,
You just completed the usual routine

Now, they have you in their dreams…

Isu ti Uso

Isu ti Uso
Uray panay iti purmam
Saan met gumiddan iti mabilang
Anya baru kingka tatta
Ket nagumaan dan piman

Sapay madi mu padasen,
Mangiturong iti masurot?
Mangipauso ka
Kitam, matulad nga sigod

Mangisuot ka, rutrot
Pumagna nga siga
Langisam ata buok mo
Samo isagsagunnot

Uray saan nga terno
Sapin ken sapatos
Mayat latta ti sintas
Uray pangis da ti kulor

Nu adda umuyaw
“Isu ti uso” kunam
Nu ipapilit da pay
Ibagam, “Umapal ka lang!”

Paper Cut

Paper Cut
Just when you least expect it
Not from a fainting sheet
Thing that projects but innocence
Clean and void that can hold dreams
But possesses a deceiving edge
That appears so thin and weak
Yet has the skill of a blade
With a rapid slide, you will bleed
Too late, when you see it’s deep
Delayed then for a cut treatment
But long enough for the pain to fade
Gradually, you will be relieved
Slowly, its mark will wane

Next thing, you’ll hate magazines
‘Cause its leaves cut even meaner
Turn them carefully to see what’s within
The caveats must be yet to discover
Then you’ll be gentle with papers

Kinakabog

Kinakabog


Hindi na nangimi
Basta sya ang namili
Di ka makatatanggi
Kahit kapwa mo pati
Kung dibdib mo’y sya ang sinasabi

Pigilin mo ma’y pilit kakabog
Mali man ang tono nitong tinutogtog
Ikubli mo pa at ito’y sasabog
Bigkasin mo ma’y walang tutunog
Ang sambit nito’y tanging kalabog
