Cardinal sun rose blooming as the budding flower. Buddha chants in the chimes of birds ethereal caught in gradual hot wind, Darjeeling tea steam rises on tabletop my mind is waking over Indonesian morning. Foreign babel as hours draw even cacophony of hurricane horns the Denpasar traffic drumming chorus midst markets where radio emitting Li Zengguang dizi dizzily prancing into the assortments of spice and coiling fabrics patterns potent azure and golden royalty brass clatter caged noise boiling *** cries the Orient! Overgrowth spots the charring temples in majesty and abundance cradling the narrow Balinese streets while tropic palm and orchid spring swells the soils. Ardent sun sheaths eastern archipelagos, religious offerings canvas sidewalks incense burning in overwhelming bouquets of efflorescence smelling daedal tapestries within the paradise. Sun goes on setting the jewel easing underneath the horizon, butterflies sway in rest hearts on fire the ceremonies have finished. Thunder shrieks against the sea torrential rain firing on villa ceilings. My eyes set to sleep consciousness transitioning between two dreams.

In times of yore, A name arose – With vulnerable emerging markets, The “Sick Man” of Asia! But it has primed its cutback! “Sick Man” was now a former name, Call him this nation To breed at ‘breakneck’ pace! The snap back is faster As global growth stirs in its revival, And billions of dollars are in his shares! Philippines vs. U.S. With 7 percent, the peso was down for the year! And we were knocked out! It was more a reflection of global fears! – About higher U.S. interest rates, Then, the worries ‘bout the realm’s own fortunes, Has to be forgotten. Southeast Asian nation's prospects remain bright, Likely to produce “predictable growth,” Yes, the three stars with lone sun – Now sky-scraping , With Filipinos making a stand. Moving far.. From being a financial basket case, The government has cut its debt, Carry on! March on Filipinos! (2/25/13 @xirlleelang)
