Shot taken with my N6230, my cobwebbed all-reliable phone. Heheh.

I was getting sleepy after lunch. The world around me was getting dark. Ooooh. It is going to rain.
I found a comfy position to take a nap. As I was closing my eyes, I heard sirens all over… Grrr… Stealing my nap time. Then, it mocked me more. I decided to look out my window… and oooh. There it was. One corner of the top floor of the Court of Appeals was on fire! It was getting bigger. The smoke was getting thicker… There was one fire truck with one measly hose trying to extinguish the fire. Oooh. Scary fire. It couldn’t be extinguished. More fire trucks came. The smoke was blocking my view. (please! stop that fire. too many important buildings in the Orosa-Faura Area!)  More sirens were heard. But I still saw the fire was winning the fight. It’s bigger.  The sky grumbled. Yes. I think it was about to rain!!! The firemen stuggled still. After a few minutes, yes! It did start to rain… harder and harder… There. The fire was slowly dying. Good job, rain. Then, the rain stopped. The firemen finished the job.

There. I could take a nap now.

Mom and child were both so tired because they have been waiting for quite some time for their relative to get money for their needs.

Shot in Legaspi City (Nov. 2006). Who says the beach has to be white sand to have fun?!

the resuscitation of the never-been-revived as I remember it

You didn’t believe
You could clear the way
You could breathe the life back
You could push the beating back
You could bring the warmth back.
But you did go on
Without knowing why
Or pretending not to know why
You wore the whites
To be the grace, the savior
Limp. Lifeless. Lost.
And it was done
It was the wailing of a woman
Who birthed the child
Of doom, of winding agony
Of the guilt, of the shock
You gave the life
You took it away
It was the anger of the supposed savior
Suspecting, unknowing
Commanding and failing.
Limp. Lifeless. Lost.
It’s time to move on.
Breathe.
