Requiem For Your Guns

you are washing your
hands with their bloods
gargling the souls of
this woman, children and men.
you are devil, evil incarnate
of that region
who mistake the flesh
of innocents like salted brown fishes,
dried under the sun.
you exalted your power
like the legion of death
treating defenseless and
poor people as grains of your armaments.
the cockroaches and earthworms of greed
ate your guts laid on the forlorn symphony
of your lust for money, for gold,
for silver, for iron, for copper,
for money, for money, for money,
for money you son-of-a-gun.
oh forsaken people,
bathe in lies and powdered of
violent resolutions,
basking on this man
who asked bullets,
arms, bullets, arms.
all for money, for money, for money,
for money you son-of-a-gun!
the lullaby is now dead,
blood wrapped your hands,
and you call this corporate rights,
you son-of-a-gun.
the bells of the churches
spilt red tears, sobbing, looking at
your hands, guiltless, soulless,
heartless, honorless, you-son-of-a-gun.
thrive oh, forsaken souls.
go to these monsters who trapped
your lives in a deathly symphony
of their armory.
rouse them, wake them, sing to them
your woes, pain and wounds.
heave to them your screams;
sing the hymn of justice to their eyes
until they'd gasp same, last painful sigh.
fill their cups of your blood, 
remind them how they buried their guns
to your flesh and mind.
rouse them, wake them,
stay with them until they'd feel
if these blood poured
out from the veins of their wives, daughters and sons.
until they'd feel their cruelty
what an uncaring, bloodless arms,
oh heavens, like salted fish
dried under the sun.

The Unfaithful.


i have no faith to leadership
whose logic is in contradiction.
they are like drunkard,
feet crisscrossed at the streets.
posing danger to innocent persons.
creating vulnerabilities to sons
when things has just begun.

where were you when
everyone was talking?
at the galaxy watching the hole?
sublimated your self with
the fading stars, closing light.
sat on the moon,
confused of your tune.

where were you after
you thumbed out discord?
raising alarm on fund
unable to accountably stand
lured by monies and guns
acted like king of warlords
everything was in a fraud
you unchanged the world.

where were you
after those promises?
did your promises chased you?
reverted, failed reform
chanting your songs
you've not reformed
oh, no. sad norms.

Tears


Head is tilted
Sapped of strength
Lengthy hair dropped unmoved
Spine held, supports of chair
Eyes… stares, aimless
Lips tight.
A tear glitter in the corner of an eye.
Arms just float besides.
A sigh freed.
Equivalent to a million ton
Of bloody bleed.
Unspoken
Unworded
Unsang
Down to the measured
Depths of heart’s constriction.
The lids closed in hardest effort
Tear painfully dropped.
Unsecured by truth.

She waited for the person
Whom she knew
Will not arrive.

Coffee


In the absence of moon
the water is shrouded with powder black
sweet melted bitterness
as teasing spoon is self-regrounding
heart pounding, ankle aching
hair to hair
teeth to teeth
truth baffled with circumstances
psyche bowed to patience, peace
of mixed destiny and choices...
with the last drop of coffee,
It's most of all, Choices.

I write.

Only cowards write
I’m afraid to forget you
I write.

I find a truth in you 

I can’t stop the
Force of my hand to embrace
My pen and start again the
Sublime communion of a
Continuous presence that
Could only be acknowledged
When
I write.

I am not your servant.
I am not your companion.
I am not your audience.
I am not your critic.
I am not a confirmer of your sense-of-being
I could but will never be.

You don’t need my laughter.
You don’t need my mockeries.
You don’t need me
 I write.

Only cowards write.

I’m afraid to lose you.
I write.

[written in 1998]
