The Look:

What am I looking at? Or is it just a stare?
As if I’m caught by surprise, touched by a love flare
Maybe I’m carried away, left nothing to spare
Or is it I’m in aghast, a whirlwind of scare?

Or maybe I’m reading your thoughts beyond your emotion
Beyond the physical feel, behind your condition
Beyond the face value, beyond our conversation
Maybe I’m just lost, in an effort of translation
Maybe I’m driving down to a solid notion
To understand what you are saying
The look can be anything
That you read from my face
The squinting of my eyes and gaze
I’m trying to touch your soul, where the real you reside
From the expression, I’m attempting to slide
To get to the real you, for our thoughts to stride
Forward!

Think different! it is OK!

see, I am so used to thinking
like my sibling
the utmost upbringing
to think life my "folks"
like the society
think under the "blocks"
where I had my "normality"

then I learn the secret
of transformation
to think different
to a bright destination
different
to redeem my lost
present past!
different
from what is called the "norm"
to redeem my brain from the storm
of conformity!

Unscripted Life!

So it goes, outside of the norm
The norm set up by the world
The norm structured by the cold
--- Human condition
--- And an evil notion
But, my generation
--- My life, our life
Slipped out of strife
Slipped out of the butcher knife
To live and shine

Outside of the norm
Hidden from the fierce storm
From the stance of African nation - Convoluted
From the demise and isolation – expected

Contrary!
A generation of hopeful horde
A tenacious soul so determined
To achieve the new high - unexpected
To live a full life – unscripted!

LIVE IN THE NOW!

Ya, all I have is now,
not even today
all I have is the present,
moment!
not to dwell in dismay
and that I may
find what life is all about
questioning,
And sort out

Else living,
Mere existing
Is eluding
As if I mastered it
but, I will mask it!

See, fools sit back
kick back,
throw dart
on those who question,
inquisitive minds.
unlike fools,
who pretends,
as if they figured it all,
but deep down
there is a toll
No wonder why they clown
in city and town

So, I can either
be passive
follow the crowd
or live in the NOW
be myself and proud.


Live in the Now!

Tease me not!

Please,
we know it is not true
No, it is not from our heart
it is a wall paint of color blue
we confess, while apart

but, while together
I wonder why!
we shy,
we lie
we spy

we tease,
as if to appease
"your real self"
"my real self"

So, we can please,
each other
let's stop
another
drama

let's not tease!

SMILE!

At times, it is true "smile though your heart is aching!"
Wish we know how much you were hurting!
Dark ghosts of jealousy
Evil shackle of hypocrisy
The greed of lawyers
And lawless
Paparazzi,
The media frenzy!

“Annie, are you OK? “
How could you, when crude criminals
Evil faces of humanity
When we turn to be Cannibals
Trampled him down!
Overthrew his crown!
Threw away,
The love poured,
“We are the world
We are the children”
Identified himself with the abandon’d


But, I remember once again
Beyond the shadow of the pain
“Through all the rain and the pain,
I gotta be able to smile through all this nonsense”

RIP! MJ!
