we call it love
our lips merge together in promises
steady heartbeats long lost
laying there hand in hand
keep mine if you want

Ang hirap mag mahal ng lalaking may girlfriend pang isa oo si Mary Jane.
Si Mary Jane na lagi niyang tinitira.
Si Mary Jane na kahati mo lagi sa oras niya.
Akala mo ikaw ang dahilan ng kanyang saya pero si Mary Jane pala.
Si Mary Jane na takbuhan niya tuwing may problema siya.
Si Mary Jane na sandalan niya sa lahat ng bagay na hindi niya kaya.
Si Mary Jane na nag bibigay ng lakas ng loob sa damdamin niyang napaka hina.
Si Mary Jane din ang unti-unting sumisira sa buhay niya. Hindi niya alam pero sirang sira na siya.
Oo nga pala si Mary Jane ang una niyang nakilala hindi ako na pumapangalawa lang sa puso niya.

PUTANGINA NAMAN MARY JANE MAG PARAYA KA NAMANG AHAS KA LAHAT NA LANG SYOTA KA BUKOD SA DAHON KA MAKATI KA PA!!

Come to me.
             your inscribed
                slashes of verse
                branded upon
             the juice of
           my tongue
     a specter
    of the ultimate gift
      as we allow
         the magic
              to rise
               and peel off in
         swathed, aching
         layers,
                undone
Each stratum of
  dermis shed
       is a prayer for
         our succulent
                     redemption
                        Each shadow of
                          silky cuttlefish caress
                   a plea for sanctity
            or perhaps simply
            being loved
        into a frenzy
        of sanity
            healing in waves
                    of electric eyes
                          You open me
                    like a holy book
              and I am suddenly
                  filled with light
           as you unlock
the blessings
from my spinal fluid
and I am a priestess
  on her altar
       arms raised,
         love braised
              into slick-lit wonder
               a spiral cone rising from
                            ground to crown
                 chakric palette pulsating
            phosphorescent ripples
on deep-sea creatures
Your ubiety
       slakes my naked,
            somatic anatomy
                   a mere shelter
                          for our souls    
                       a working
       of muscle and skin
    with heart strings pumping
                    the essence within
                     Our brainwaves
                                    sizzle in
                         glandular fire
                        as pheromones
                       envelope us
                   like incense
This goes far beyond the
wet cuntflush of desire
beyond the embellishment
of moistened sword
  It is the sacred dance
         of souls that merge
            before even touching
                      pre-verbal animal
                   first light of mankind
                          in ancient swells
                                 of earth that
                           rise like sparks
                the constellations
           of firework chimes
       in arcs of
chiseled
         dark
