“A lovely moon tonight” she said.
“It’s the same moon it was last night” he said.
“It looks slightly different somehow” she said.
“It’s exactly the same ****** moon” he said.
“I think it’s fuller tonight” she said.
“Of course it’s fuller tonight” he said.
“It’s brighter and gayer tonight” she said.
“The moon is no gayer tonight” he said.
“It seemed so sad last night” she said.
“How could the moon seem sad?” he said.
      “The moon dies every night” she said.
      “And ferries the souls of the recently dead,
        Into the darkness just out of reach
        It circles the globe unseen and *****  
        It pries open the sky at evening’s breach
The moon has been reborn” she said.
He gave her a look of scorn and dread
“What’s gotten into your head?”
“A lovely moon tonight” she said.
Behind the extreme luster of pearl of the orient sea
tons of covenants, precedents, and laws
But why O' why I unfailingly see
the same *pathway to exiguity
I am a concern citizen of the Philippines. We have so many laws.... tons of laws
BUT THEY ARE LOST.
What is the secret of being the best poet?
Did he tightly wring every reader's heart
by chewing every word of an epic sonnet
or did he sting their dead minds like a hornet?

Where is the premise of a great poem?
Should it be smell like lemongrass
planted in a coarse sandy loam?
or must it be supple and soft as a foam?

Has anyone ever been born with a *golden hand
?
Or is it just an accidental discovery of a man?
What is the mystery of being the best writer
holding his pen with a stupendous power?
a curious writer here.

I'm stuck
Don't know how
To climb over
The wall
To get to you
So you can
Open your eyes
& Finally just
Focus on me
Instead of my
Friends....
Be by your  number
One
I love to listen to His voice
It is cozy yet forceful
It can move my table and chair
It deeply penetrates to the veins of my heart
up to the tip of my fingers when I write
I follow His voice from the words
He wants to embed in every eye of the readers

He is the poet

By the way
I am His writer and ambassador.
In John 10:27, Jesus said “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:” :)

I tore a hole in my forever.
I took my time
And lost it along the way
Maybe we're in the rapture
Maybe you weren't meant to stay
Maybe I'm too mellow
And you're too me
Maybe I'm Othello
And you're a Queen
Maybe I'm the bass
And you're the lead
Maybe it just
Wasn't meant to be

Is your life worth living?
Is your living worth life?
Are you bound by sinning?
Is divinity divine?
Are you your God?
Will your will just wilt?
God willing it might
