    Bahay/buhay

    Bahay/buhay

    Dito sa aming bahay, hindi ako malaya
    Gusto kong manood ng TV pero hindi pwede
    Tataas ang kuryente at mabubutas ang aking bulsa.

    Maraming laman ang refrigerator at nais kong magluto ng masarap
    Problema nga lang hindi ako chef
    Bawal kasing humakbang sa ‘di mo naman saklaw.
    Para sa kanila lang ang matatamis na karne at ‘di mo mabigkas na pagkain.

    Mabuti pang mag-noodles,
    ‘yung nutritious noodles na nagpaparamdam ng kaunlaran.
    Pinagsama-sama na kasi dito lahat ng bitamina, wala ng hahanapin pa.

    Nais kong lumipad at maglayag
    Ngunit may nakataling pabigat sa aking mga paa.
    Kaya papanoorin ko na lang na lumipad sa hangin ang aking mga pangarap.

    Dito kasi sa aming bahay ay pasan ko ang mundo.
    Aalis pa lang ako ay ramdam ko na ang bigat.

    Hindi rin naman ako pwedeng kumalas sa trabaho ko hanggat wala pang nasisipat na kapalit.
    Baka kasi kinabukasan  matulog na lang ako sa malawak at malamig na covered court na pinagawa ng papogi naming congressman.

    Sa bagay, dito, masamang mangarap ng mataas dahil gutom ang aabutin mo. Magcall-center na lang, at isipin na ikaw ay basketball player, artista, action star etc. habang tinuturuang magcomputer ang isang bobong kano.

    Dito kasi sa aming bahay ay may nanay-nanayang diktador
    Mahilig siyang gumawa ng batas at mag-utos
    Pero, aso, sila lang naman ang nakikinabang at nakakaintindi.

    Kaya ang tulad ko ay nakakulong sa isang madilim na sulok
    At pasilip-silip lang sa maliit na butas ng liwanag.

  • Book Review: The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery

    Though I usually begin with a general feel of the novel, this time, I opted not to. Because this book’s outstanding quality, which practically made it a classic, is its subjectivity. Read more..
