untitled (former working title: true music)
as if one have
all the value judgements
in this—
tribulation period,
if only wind
instruments were
invented to share
a message, —
would souls
truly speak
in the present moment?
time & its insignificance
like metanoia
—a paradigm shift—
suddenly, anxiety
changing one's drift
from kabbalah
to phonetics
linguistics, semantics
hermeneutics of the Torah
from ancient
to the renaissance
what more can
one presage?
neither—
if a believer
prays to a false God
[of an othered religion]
permitted but
wronged sainthood
senile syllogisms & oblivion
may bagong liwanag
sa bigat nitong dinadala,
kahit buhay ay tila
hindi natatamasa
at walang sigla
gaya mo rin,
ang bawat tao raw
ay may kani-kaniyang
suliranin
mainam na makalaya
na nga, makaliwas ang
puso kong ito
at pati ng katawan
sa lupa
—mula sa kanilang
pagkakagapos
