Kanina habang kumakain ako sa Jollibe ng spaghetti at yum burger, naka dungaw ako sa bintanang pader,
tinatanaw ko ang labas at mga tao at motoristang dumadaan.
Nang biglang bumuhos ang malakas na ulan,
Dala ng madilim dilim na ulap sa langit,
Bigla bigla nalang magbubuhos ng pait yung langit.
Hay....habang bumubuhos ang malakas na ulan,
tanaw ko ang malayo na parang nalulusaw na imahe.
Ang lalim ng iniisip ko, siguro ganito talaga kapag umuulan,
Hindi lang naman siguro ako yung ganito.
Gayun pa man di ko napag tantong tulala na pala ako,
Yung tipong hawak hawak ko nalang ang yum burger
Tapos nakalimutan ko narin nguyain ang nasa bunganga ko,
Sampung segundo ang lumipas wala akong imik,
Dalawampung segundo ang lumipas,
Ganun parin ako, tumatanaw sa malayong walang imik,
Tatlong pung segundo ang nakalipas,
Bigla akong napaiyak,
Yung luha ko ay sumasabay sa pag buhos ng ulan.
Wala akong pakialam kung may naka tingin sa akin o wala,
Ang alam ko lang gusto kong umiyak.....
Kaya pwede niyo akong pag-bintangang baliw,
Sapagkat umiiyak ako, akala ko dahil marami akong problema,
Hindi lang pala dahil may problema ako,
Ang alam ko umiiyak rin ako
Sapagkat sa kabila ng lahat ng problema ko,
Andiyan ang Panginoon sa Buhay ko.
At yun ang lubos na ikinagagalak ng puso ko.



PS. Ang malayang tula na ito ay gawang imahinasyon, pero literal na umiiyak ako habang isinusulat ito...  Sa mga may pinagdaraanan ngayon, Kaya natin ito. Kapit lang kay Kristo.
-Yung lumalaban ka kahit ano pang hamon ng buhay sayo, lumalaban ka kasi alam **** kasama mo ang Diyos at di ka Niya pababayaan, Kapit lang, manampalataya ka lang, walang sukuan.
(sung – in a round ***** willow warble - to the tune of --
Oh Where Oh Where has my little dog gone).

Once pronounced libido of mine
took kamikaze nose dive,
whereby about two thirds of mein kampf ago,
I yearned to be sought after beaux
yet as severely socially
anxious and withdrawn lad
present day ofttimes repeated laments
find me to crow
slamming self NOT losing
my virginity at a precocious ago,
cursing lack of tangible results courtesy

feeble attempts delivered deathblow
to a fragile ego,
and now only
as a married celibate sexagenarian
dearth of rutting thoughts
along the unforgettable lines sketched out
by storied author Eugene O'Neill  
includes lustful and romantic desire,
largely illustrated by the relationship
between Eben and Abbie

hashtagged within tragedy
Desire Under the Elms
ricochets with salient significance
an attempt by O'Neill
to adapt plot elements
and themes of Greek tragedy
to a rural New England setting
inspired by the myth of Phaedra,
Hippolytus, and Theseus,
which story of five characters
on a rural farm

in 1850s' New England,  
how their lives  
both pushed together
and pulled apart
by their conflicting desires
such aboriginal, primal,
optimal, animal, et cetera characteristics
once figuratively bounces
hither and yon, to and fro
within testosterone
powered windmills in my mind.

With a flame boy hunt
deft jais nais sais quois
firm lickey split tongue
and two bell yule yar pissant
little nippy ***** noopy ruck berry
filled up paul ling sacks
viz peppy la pew doth not peter out,
and weathers clawed rained swipes
from hello kitty when faux pas gets swung
assisting climbing Jacob's ladder

(without ***** footing,
orb bing a putz like the president)
advancing quick to attain ******* rung
while heading into a slippery sloping sluice
(with prickly endeavor emitting cleat trill
smooth sailing along a ****
re coarse upon ******* shaped pung
crossing la brea tar pits (peppered
with lai bee ha tricky
bridge over the River Kwai)

comprising ideal place de la resistance
to woo tang clan foreign nee Kate,
where two puckered
rill lee fleshy ruffling rills
tinged pinkish lips overhung
a challenging escarpment,
where many a brave
Tom, Harry or **** get hung
up, particularly while searching
for fabled “G” spot,

Fear of Flying (a bildungsroman
whose central theme couched
in the search
for self-discovery) by Erica Jung
cuz portcullis hamstrung
even the most fiercely determined
Engelbert **** per ****
necessitating the moist risky ski maneuver
as most studs know tubby gelandesprung

though ***** prize
wool worth any slimy setbacks,
where sticky **** gets flung
from angry cat,
who does not in the least find amusing,
and if further pricked with rage
not averse to hurl dung
gar (with) ease at snaky,
retractable hardened foo fighting

beastie boy twill clung
for dear life and limb
(er, or twig and berries),
while applying crampons (bivouacked
within his maxipad), viz ****

******* and hammered out

kinked follicles strewn tightly inlet among
pheromone laced verboten fruit.
