ARE WE GOOD?

We are unlike the native filipina
whose saya should be below the ankle bone..
Gone is MARIA CLARA with her modesty..


Today is the existing NENE.
An epitome of the evolution of culture and tradition.
No longer a virgin.

"All it takes to be a woman is to surrender the purity",
the usual misconception..

what have you done at fourteen?
Unaware of the crime you have been doing for months now?

Everyone gets into the possibility of engaging to a mistake.

PREMARITAL SEX and FORNICATORS.
One day it'll all be just a HOBBY
a pleasure,an enjoyment.
The picture i fear to develop.

For the number of people who helplessly died of the gruesome massacre,
whose lives ended leaving a mark in Philippine history,
whose intentions of serving were forcibly restrained,
where is justice?

What else can be more disgusting
if you know that the people behind the outrageous incident
are the one's in position to rule?

where else can be safer if it happens in your beloved land?

When else can there be peace if no one's seeking?

No one realizes it's too much until it's over..

Sooner or later, the Ampatuan massacre will be unsolved..
one day it'll be forgotten just like any other issues.
Veracity will be buried in the graveyard
with the bodies of the victims..

One day atrocity will happen again,
it may even get worse and then worst..


and i fear...

WHEN IS GOOD BETTER THAN BEST?

There is a SECOND HONOR because he is not good enough
to be called the first honor..

There is a SECOND RATE to emphasize who is superior..

There is a SECOND BEST perhaps it is fated that way..

There is a SECOND CLASS because not everyone is fortunate enough
to deserve the title, first class..

The best will be prioritized and that the great will be recognized.
We look up at things and people so much
that we sometimes neglect to appreciate the next ones..
We admire and then imitate. Too much admiration..

IDOLATRY, Just because they aren't the second.
But if you lose way, there's this we call the SECOND CHOICE..
There is this SECOND CHANCE to give it another try..
and maybe there is a SECOND THOUGHT
to reconsider the possibility of betterment..


SECOND WILL BE BEST JUST AFTER THE STAR FALL.

And it will always be better to think this way:

There is a SECOND LIFE
for maybe next time it'll be in PARADISE..

The daughter of christmas time

I was once a child and I knew what it's like to wait Santa..
I was a child of innocence and curiosity..
I thought of how Christmas is celebrated by people
who have been in prison for crimes they never did
or if they did, atleast they've realized it was wrong..

How will it be merry to feel the cold night
with no one to share the blanket with?

I thought of the children in the pavement
and how they sing carols
and feel happy for whatever pity costs.

Do they have the same doll as i have?

Is it the undescribable cruelty of fate
or is it the clemency that drives me to ask
why can't my Christmas be the happiest?

The hypocrites against the hungry children.
The eyewitnesses against the prisoners.

If there could really be a MERRY CHRISTMAS
and a NEW START that waits
then LET NOT CHRISTMAS BE JUST A TIME TO FEAST
RATHER, A TIME FOR PEACE...
