We’ve always been here, seeing each other, communicating in deemed interactions –where words are exchanged but understanding is zero. It’s like a transparent film separates us, but also serves as a string that does not let us drift too far apart. Born to the same parents, the manner in which we absorbed the same reality … Continue reading Twins

The journey from this point to that which was so arduous before, does not hold appeal. My feet and bottom are too big to get on those shaky metal rods. When did I outgrow myself? How cool is it to not know the possibilities, the horizons that lie beyond your view and see yourself as … Continue reading Intended Destinations

Seventeen again …. by Michelle Navajas
Seventeen Again
and i am seventeen again
feels like yesterday ‘though ages ago
that you gently held me by my hand
as we walked past the busy street
of the University belt’s crowded intersection
i am seventeen again with you
holding my hand for real.
and i am seventeen again
feels like yesterday ‘though decades ago
that you kissed me sweetly, framed by the door
it wasn’t Christmas no mistletoe, but we kissed
i am seventeen again with you
kissing me tenderly for real.
and i am seventeen again
feels like yesterday ‘though years ago
that we passionately shared our love
amidst the blazing Manila skyline
i am seventeen again with you
manifesting your love for real.
feels just like the first time.

Today’s prompt is Frog. I really like the filter I cut for last year, so I thought I would try some of my transparency filters to add some color and texture.
Today’s prompt is Love, Great and Small expressed through a sonnet or elegy.
Today’s poetics prompt is fermentation. I really like this prompt. I’m thinking about creating poetry as fermentation: a process of undergoing an effervescent change, and a state of agitation or excitement.

“This book is going to be explosive, because it reveals so many secrets. Skeletons will keep tumbling out of cupboards for a few years.” “Manage the situation. Find a weakness with which you can blackmail the author. The manuscript needs to change immediately.” “I don’t think she will get intimidated.” “Fear of death is the … Continue reading End View
We walked into the haze together, several years ago, not knowing what lies ahead. Faith kept us together, that only better things lie ahead. The rocks we had failed to see tested us at many points, as the haze thinned down and heat escalated. We stumbled, blamed each other for placing those in our way … Continue reading Dreaming together
