the above picture was taken during our 2002 trip to boracay. we stopped over some nice restaurant in the outskirts of aklan. me & my friends johann, ian, divino, clemente, & my brother shao were staring at the sea, a short relaxing moment. no big deal. |

| more than twenty years of living on this earth can make one realize that the essence of life is never monotonous. where there will be yin, there will always be yang. where black, there will be white. where there will be darkness, light. life is reflected in poetry. in simple definition and understanding, poetry need not be measured by standards and forms. poetry may simply be expression. it could be a deep sneeze or a subtle sneeze. a rant, a cry, a moan, a hiccup. whatever it may be, it should have passion. it should have emotion. it should be honest. one should need not go get his thesaurus and look up to use some high-faluting word just to try to make a "good" poem. i don't care if people would say that my style is cliché or stereotypical. what is understand about poetry is that it should be honest. for indeed it is an expression of oneself. many are the moments when we sit back and record these honest emotions. and when we do, it simply is poetry. | ||
