wishes upon the last star

Posted by estranged_parts at 01:28 AM on August 3, 2004.

a casket of blue and white
i see myself in it

my body dressed decently
make up creating an illusion of a grin

flowers arranged perfectly where i lay
seems like i'm floating on them

performances by kumpadre's and kumare's
entertain the visitors 24/7

shall my instrument be for my best apprentice
and the tradition will be passed on

... their music is the silence that i yearn

not a single drop will be shed
in the last days of my worldly existence
for my demise will leave a legacy of happiness
for the memories are too bliss to grieve

at the site of my grave
a flood of people who appreciated my being

and before i mingle on the other side
a last bird's eye view of the blue and white casket
being lowered slowly to an ironic abyss of six feet

...these are wishes not promises...

bulol buhol

Posted by estranged_parts at 12:01 PM on August 7, 2004.

nasisilayan sa malayo
naaamoy ang iyong pabango
bawat daan mo saking harapan
o pag-ibig ako'y tantanan

minsan lang ako magkaganito
ngayon lang ang katorpehan ay dumapo
naiipit sa salimuot
naliligaw, nalilito

para'kong batang naglalaro
di alam kung san magtatago
pero gusto rin magpakita
para ako naman ang taya

nabubulol ang mga salita
kapag nandiyan ka
nabubuhol na ang dila
kasi nandiyan ka

don't talk when your mouth is full

Posted by estranged_parts at 02:16 AM on August 12, 2004.

some people are just full of themselves. egocentric bimbos. listen up 'CHO! you self-proclaimed maestros, you are but a tiny microorganism in earth's 8 billion human population. keep your feet on the ground until you win a Nobel prize, or win the Tchaikovsky competition, or use your name for a new scientific term... don't overflow with your ego... the dam might burst.

or maybe you just love telling stories (of yourself) hehe.

if there is anything in this world that is universally bad... it's overkill.

ang salitang MINSAN

Posted by estranged_parts at 11:47 PM on August 22, 2004.

masarap gamitin ang salitang MINSAN. bakit? kasi laging may lusot dito. pag madalang ang ginamit mong salita parang kulang. pag madalas naman... sobra. san ka mapapadpad... sa salitang minsan.

bakit MINSAN? naririnig natin ito lagi... tulad ng:

dillema: "uy bawal ka kumain nyan... baka mahighblood ka nanaman..."
alibi: "eehh minsan lang naman eh...."

o kaya

dillema: "pare napapadalas ang pag-inom mo ah..."
alibi: " hindi parreeeee minshan lang toooh...."

ang galing no? kung sino ang nagimbento ng salitang ito ay kelangan mabigyan ng pulitzer prize. dahil sa salitang ito nagkaroon tayo ng dahilan para gumawa ng masama. halina tayo'y magbulakbol, tayo'y magdroga, tayo'y magpakasabog, sirain natin ang ating buhay.... tutal "minsan lang naman eh".

ikaw? may mga minsan ka pa bang gustong gawin at sabihin?

ROAD LESS TRAVELED

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth

Then took the other as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet, knowing how way leads onto way
I doubted if I should ever come back

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence
Two roads diverged in a wood
And I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference

- Robert Frost
