When we kissed

 

“Desire like unruly #seafoam

Drowned me when you kissed,”

Her words I can’t forget.

Not sure what I did right.

Not sure what she meant.

Creative change? 

Or rejection?

Do I really want to know what you are thinking?

 

Do I really want to know what you are thinking?

Let's assume those are good lies to remain calm in this #sink-hole.

Not like ex-lovers fantasising with fiction dressed up as truth.

Like lonely kids ready to hide a tear for a game or to avert death.

(#sing along)

There are too many politicians in my family.

There is one.

He stood for election once.

He got two votes.

His mother, wife, son or daughter?

Or all?

Who betrayed him?

That remains an unsolved mystery.

[Chorus]

There are too many politicians in my family.

There is one.

There are too many lawyers in my family.

There is one.

There are too many doctors in my family.

There is one.

There are too many bureaucrats in my family.

There are none.

When she undressed, you too I watched,

Teased and loved you - of course, her too...

All was well till the denouement

When she charged me with wantonness...

If I could have another turn,

Will you be in high noon’s #blind spot?

Love still remains when lovers spurn...

from 'My Mother's Village'

 

I walked upstream along the #bank to the old sandy bathing spot. 

Found an ugly mound of rock, weeds and wild grass. The carcass left behind by indiscriminate sand-mining.

I took a few photos of that sad wretched place. I wish I had photos of the paradise it once was.

Don't mention

 

"Molu, when the doctor asks questions, please answer, ok? (Lowers voice.) Tell the doctor Daddy works abroad. Don’t mention about Uncle staying with us. It doesn't matter but there’s no need, right?" 

The daughter turns away after removing her mother’s hand on her #arm.

Murdering crazies

 

How long should I wait

For the #hand of god to strike

Murdering crazies?

#haiku #senryu ?

To beat Big Bro Cen Sor

 

To beat Big Bro Cen Sor

Wrote in code 

The pome

To conquer her heart

But Big Bro

Got it wrong

Its call came without a #ring

Says I'll hang

For hating those I should hate

Should I tell Big Bro

It's a love pome 

Or 

Let it be what It thinks it is

Either way

She giggles.

self-portrait of a fallen man

 Am I the lone bird?

That one's guarding a nest.

How about the tree barely bent?

That's still giving taking little.

Can't be the moon and its phases,

Regular moods ain't my style.

Not the blue sky nor the fresh air, then

How is this a self-portrait of a fallen #man?
