I am nothing but a body still
Iβ€˜ve never been
and never will

yet, for once I thought
they might understand
but there I was
my head buried in my hands

and shivers went through the parts of my body they touched
wrinkles started to form on my face
the ones you only get from pain

so long I ran
and finally, no one came
she quietly sits on the bench
focusing on one question
a question she has recently
often asked herself but not been able
to find a workable answer for

how do I begin again at this stage of my life?

this question has been haunting her
and kept her awake during the night
and lost and depressed during the day
she has tried to push it away
but it creeps up again and again

watching her I realise
that her question
is also my question
and just like her
I am still searching
for a workable answer

Gaano kalaking karatula ang kailangan mo?
Para mabasa mo ang nakapaskil sa puso ko?
Ako ay isang siyudad kung saan kailangan
kong sabihin na wag akong apakan.
Ako ay isang babae lamang, kailangan
kong maging dagat para wag silaban.
Isang posteng tutumba sa isang kalabit,
patawad, β€˜di mo ko kaibigan o kapatid.
Isang pader na tulugan ng mga kalapati,
pangarapin ko man, β€˜di nila ako haligi parati.
Hindi ako ang pinangakong paraiso,
baka nga hindi rin ako naaalala ng Diyos.
Hindi ako ang magiging para sa’yo,
baka hindi rin ako magiging parausan mo.
Gaano kalaking plakard ang gusto mo?
Para maintindihan **** bawal umibig dito?
joe,you said why
i did nt write a poem about
you

i know thatΒ΄s not to
say i should but it
is sunday

and i am making falafel
and listening to hawkwind
and i am a bit ******

so here goes..i wonΒ΄t post it
cause she is the jealous type..
that night in your cardboard box

was nearly the death of me
it began,with you trying to burn
a hole in my cardigan..i held your arm..

and we said hello..we went back to yours
a shanty around the factory
in your cardboard box we had *** and

in the silence laughed and it was cold..
though ok..i nearly died..
it was so cold..
