oh like keep it real

jumped online for a few minutes to see what's to see

anna and i are on our annual fall holiday

doing house projects [my hands & fingers thick with paint]

got thru a haunted house attraction with my old man and lived to tell

got a slight cold runny nose and doing my best to ignore it

oh but you should see the light in northern california

read a few essays in pinoy poetics ed. by nick carbo

got the real live energy from joel b tan and paolo javier

as for me i do try to occupy the wandering border

like the itinerant scholar nomad poetics

rather for me travel is the spaces between noun and verb

like the french poet who wants to be home

when the bread comes out of the oven
