Negosyo at Lotto
XIII May 2015
Ang pag-ibig
Para yang negosyo
Namumuhunan ka
Investment kumbaga

Ang pag-ibig
Para yang lotto
Tumataya ka
Sumusugal sa walang kasiguraduhan

Ang pag-ibig
Parang negosyo
Minsan nalulugi
Kaya minsan, kailangan magsara

Ang pag-ibig
Parang lotto
Madalas talo
Pero muli ka pa ring tataya
112415

At kaya nga ayokong mag-lotto,
Kasi naaalala kong walang pag-asang manalo,
Mabuti pa si Chito,
Hindi nauubusan ng liriko.

At ayokong umasa sa roleta,
Kasi ako yung tipong sigurista,
Hindi naman ako dumaraan sa peryahan,
Moderno nga pala sa'ming bayan.

Hayaan mo, hindi ako mag-aaksaya ng barya,
Papel lang kasi siyang humahagkan sa bulsa.
Sandali, pagkat hindi ako mayaman,
Hindi ka kasi mabibili ng ginto't dyamante sa tindahan.

Paumanhin, wala naman kasi akong pera
Hindi ako magtataya sayo,
Lotto ka nga eh, walang kasiguraduhan.
Napdaan ako sa Lottohan, pero hindi pa ako nakaranas magtaya. Wala rin akong interes, kahit lahat pa magtaya.

I bought a Lotto ticket
on the day my child was born

After months of
hope and trepidation
research and preparation
practice and anticipation
dreams and realization

After hours of labor
intense and slow
expanding
contorting
pushing
blowing
crying

My wife gave birth

our child
our life
our future
our union

After days of rest
we went home
and down the road
that he would lead

After days I checked
the numbers
on the ticket
and they matched

the bundle in my arms
Robin Carretti Aug 2018
We are heating up
A-glow--- A-star--- A-blaze
Many other well-lit planets
She's luminous like no other
Simply crazed__Fairytales

*She's Peach-Fruitti-Tutti
Godiva loves nuts
All the melt in's
*
Mr. Bacio-Hazelnut*
Mr. Pistacchio he got his nose______

Inside their sweets____Pinnochio
She's the Light-up Icecream Cone  

Moods are like ice cubes
hot and cold websites
I prefer cold zone
Feeling like
Eskimo in Alaska


Miss Prima Donna
Oh! Donna is her name
Gelatos are not all the same
We are not here to have
special privileges

Robin lost some ruffles
Polar bears ice Igloo
College boys with their sports mug
Polo shirts Santa hoo duffle bags
We don't know what she knows
or what he likes the stars
of the Cosmo we are not
here to win someone's love
OH! Yes Lotto

We are not professors or wizards
Harry Potters, they have some
Pots not a fan of pans got
some ****
**** so cool menthol smoke indeed
Around the Gelato in eighty days
The Race of a drive

computer clicks one-day creation flag
Hens and chicks laid the golden egg

Mr. Egghead meeting Conehead

His tasters choice  
 She loves Mr. Maxwell Mansion
This is Italy the Art sculptures
Sweet Gelato lips say a
thousand words of pleasure
We travel with Exotic lovebirds
Saving the Ice blue diamond
Icecream wreck what a she
gains more than a pound
Mama Mia,
not the Chia job plant
 Over the rainbow
chill out pants
Having Gelato clean
as mint float

To the waffle cone top
of the mountain sugar coat
Niagara Falls here
"Gelato calls"

What spaghetti my name is
Carretti

Mr. Alfredo his physique and
passion for food
Feeling like the comics
Having fun marveling
Carvel walking through
the love tunnel
  
Hot ladies how do they ever
Decide iced up inside

Hothead Alfredo throws
the dough
She coughs he laughs
The pizza everyone's
the head is turning beet red
Something is burning exorcist,
Lady in red pizza list

Back in Brooklyn best
Pizza and Italy (Rome) Venice (Florence)
But Bensonhurst Saturday night fever
With Nightingale Mr. Chippendale
He's chatting away on his cell phone

With her Gelato looking at the
stars of the men spiritual experience
The Cosmos feeling meltdown presence
St Thomas sunny like yellow
gelato melting

Being a saint please don't faint
A food critic dessert
*** a hex playful flirt
T Rex mighty green lime
The love fallout of coconut
He's the hottest man
on earth Pluto
Being whole flavor or 1/2 pint
of Vanilla Sky scholar or
Intermission Icecream internship
The Canadian cup another trip

  Nike air what an ice cream pair
Going back to New York City
Rockettes icecream kick
He's on his time feeling the royalty
Lets bow to the dogs best friend
French barrette in her ice blue
Corvette, she is 'Ice Queen"
Super Ice me, Hero

Do what the Romans do
Lend me your warm soul of hands
Getting married Italian medieval rings
For my next Gelato adventure
escape be polite on Google
Mr. Alfredo loves all kinds of noodle
The shape of Cone's to come in her head

Not an Antman, please or fly by night
Icecream Cone Head Batman
*But I am a woman named Robin
Christopher Robin, Robin Hood
Why are boys and girls name alike
**** good humor lady
Good humor truck
Where is her order head chef
shrimp scampi
In the islands of Sorrento

What a time for ironing
What a waffle shirt eating
his waffle
Icecream with ladybugs and dirt
So many varieties mental thing
Everything icecream you scream
What a college Varsity every year  
"Hot lady Gelato's" head of the dean
list oh! No
[Mr. Alfredo} ice cream chair with
another Gelato pair
Chiao for now
Gelato went a little too far I love Gelato lets travel with Robin and get some unbelievable Gelato but we need to go to Italy I was there it's amazing

Mushroom for the brain
The Godly tribe


Trees are being
chopped down
Everything from

Handed down
Laughing stock of

I am not feeling the vibe

Shitake what does it take
Like a fungus

Tasting someone's poison
Mushroom soup he is
wearing his graduate cap
What a mushroom head

Ladies of Venus group
Coastal storm in my
wedding bed

Riders of the storm
Stan the evil door or
Jimmy Morrison
Nicole with her Kidman
Are you kidding me
I am assuming
The good earth
Is being devoured
Every hour I feel
like writing
Who is buying mushrooms
Slivered like a snake
Making room for Go Daddy
Poisonous suits of Grooms

Healing hand is
Godly skywriting
The silence of
the Lamb
Moms Lambchops
Steamed fresh mushrooms
Stranded with most
expensive lipstick
Money withdrawal
My Drugs like a
good book fictional

Only in my dreams
Did I ever see poison
mushrooms
Something is being
planted in my showroom

Artwork Arsenic and lace
Whole place faces of mushrooms
Homemade Butternut squash
Nose of a button mushroom
  Near the vegetable
Stand his hand
lands he started
Eating my mushroom's
Marsala mushroom
sauce
Grilled Chicken and
bacon salad overload
of mushrooms
I never promised you
a rose garden
In our College Dorm
Pool games no drugs
of mushroom

Trees and Snow White
poison apple she is cute
as a button
Throwing apples compared
To oranges who would
be glad they got stuck
with poison
mushroom
Good earth what is possible

Poison brain watching
Cable whats accountable
Midterms all nasty germs
The world is poisoning
our mind brainwashed
I left one nasty mushroom
behind I won't bite
Poison is everywhere if you let it come your way it is in our plants it is the way a person galavants how the time flew. I don't even have money to buy the most expensive shoe. I see a lot of mushroom gravy  Mom make homemade gravy every Sunday Its an Italian thing. We rarely have mushrooms  He always dresses like little boy blue this is not a fairytale we feel poisoned by so many things even watch out poison mushrooms better not be in your meal
the money is like a drug but got poisoned
"Tagu-taguan, maliwanag ang buwan
Sona-sonahan, madilim na naman.
Pagbilang kong tatlo, nakatago na kayo
Mapagod man kayo, tuloy pa rin ang laban ko
Isa.. dalawa.. tatlo.. Game?"*

Pag si Juan ang nagsalita,
Nag-aalitan ang madla.
Pag tikom ang bibig,
Siya'y bulag raw sa maralita.

Pag nilatag ang naplantsa,
Lalatiguhin ng administrasyon.
Pag walang plataporma,
Ihahagis sa bangin ng suhestisyon.

Kalaban pala nati'y ang sariling atin,
Demokrasya nga'y may sapin pa rin sa bibig
Mga bolang itim, saang lupalop ang padpad
Mapait ang kapayapaan,
Dakila ma'y kanilang binabagsak din.

Walang nakatitiis sa bayang nagpapapansin
Masakit nga naman sa bulsa ang tunay na bayanihan
Dugo'y dumanak makamtan lamang ang demokrasya
Sobra-sobra nga lang ang danak ng iilang raleyista.

Sadsad sa suliranin ang Inang tinakwil
Mga anak sa lama'y namasyal pa sa ibang bayan
Hindi na matapus-tapos ito'y pagdadamayan,
Damay sa kurapsyon, damay sa pagtitwakal ng mga Inakay.
Yuyuko na lang ang nasa langit
Pagkat nagapi ang mga tunay na Anak --
Ang lipunang ginahasa ng iilang ganid,
Paulit-ulit na, ang hapdi ng kamusmusan.

May iilang nagtatanong,
May iilang walang pagtataka,
Musmos sa bayan, wala namang pag-usbong
Kaya't iba na lang ang nakikinabang
Puspos sa distansya
Ng kamalian ng nakaraan.

Hugas-kamay ang iilan,
Simpleng hindi batian,
Wika nga ba ng pagkakalimutan?
Parang away-kalye, away-bata
Aso't pusa, sa lipunang
ang hepe'y sila-sila lang din.

Batu-bato pik, naglalaro ang iilan
Bukas tataya na naman sa lotto
At pag natalo'y iiyak na lang,
Bibigyan ng tsokolate,
Pangako para sa matamis na pag-iibigan
Ngunit balat lang pala,
Mapagbalatkayong himagsikan
Tapos, hahanap ng Darna
Pagkalunok ng bato ng kamanhidan.
Ang dakilang pangako… napanindigan ko po
Ang lubusang tukso… nalagpasan ko po
Ang sukdulang sakripisyo… nagampanan ko po
Ang nakatutulirong laro… natapos ko po
Ang minimithing pagbabago… nasimulan ko po
Ang makabuluhang pakikitungo… ipinagpapatuloy ko po

Kaya ako po’y nagsusumamo…
Ihandog Niyo po Tagumpay sa Philippine Lotto!

andy fardell May 2012
I want to win the lotto
I want to win some dosh
I'm fed up of no money
I want to win the lot

I do all of me numbers each and every week
I'm lucky if a tenner comes falling at me feet
they say its one in lots and lots but I don't really care
cos all i want to say to you is I'm a millionaire  

been saying this for so long now my mates think I'm all mad
this time its gonna be my night... I am the lucky lad
so when you see some flash new car go zipping by your eyes
you'll know the person in it its me with fortune pie

Ill share all of my wealth with friends and family from afar
a charity so close to me a tear that breaks my heart
a set up for a life of good and free of bills to pay
a golden ticket full of dreams today that is my day

— The End —
