White Daisies

Very rarely do I see you tear

aching as it vibrates

piercing as it infects

like a venom

you terminate

neuron by neuron

my strings pulled

albeit heart still pumping



Sometimes I clogged too much of you in my mind

the world sees it

I was discriminated, framed and fractured

I wonder why

why couldn't I be left alone without shackles chained



I must have been a great entertainer

my creations follow no norm

you watched with a cynic smile, with pop corn and its packaging of five-edge stars in white

how lightly could one be taken

of skepticism, egocentrism and pitiful cries



I need no general consensus

of the human language

talk to me with a free mind

not an analyst

but of a born-free artist

or whoever you choose to be



I do not wish you to fathom my perception

it was a mere moment where I got to sit with you

side by side

at a given physical experience

worldly attachments

a calculation of the universe



it was an encounter that I appreciate

as I smile whilst admire

I raised my arm forward as my heart instructed









"you opened my eyes"

how can I ever thank you?



"can I touch you?"

"rarely do I see you tear"



I shall greet you when the first spring breeze

brushes your hair

All and That in Between

My love to you is outward

like how I sing you a passionate, Portuguese tune

how I dance and express a self, physically

bold, I showed you some skin,

flesh and bone, maybe

I fuel you with sparks

we peak with our natural resources

just like the sun in the Nordic sky



My love to you is inward

subtle, like the stream

roots carved and engraved

I am the old oak tree

humble and loyal, my presence

and you'd always prefer to sit on the earth where I stand on

read a book, have a nap, or drink a cup of coffee

our resonance sound

as you seek for shelter in the rain

as the moon reflects the light of orange



I feel comfortable

lying in your arms

your touch, so gentle

it reminds me of a song

as you caress



until sun rise

I wake up to the first light of the day

you are no where to be found

but you are here

so close, deep inside




I wonder if there are times

times when you miss

miss the old oak tree

Hypothesis A

如果不能和在一起

无法爱


是否把你注射在我身子里

多一点倒影

假设性地爱

五折般地上演

轻易多了


好比

若你消失 不见  死了

我的会是   怎么代替

Rehearsal Room B

Dear Jane,

you chase dreams

you are out for the best that you could gain

of abstract, material, experience, the meta

you face crossroads

you talk to yourself

you sometimes indulge amongst complications

you sometimes agree ignorance is bliss





you are attractive, subjectively

you are quirky, that way I'd appreciate

you arouse me

there's no need to further fit you into forms of the concrete

all I know is I see stars when




I found you

I do not intend to interrupt but

I like you

we agreed in unison

I wished the subject could be shone under a different spot light

I like you too



Can I take your hand

Can I kiss you

        we can do it the way you want

I don't know what will come as the sun rise

As hawks, planes and parachutes touch the sky



If someone could hit the pause button

Can we travel through space

Can we allow more to be filled in our voids and

make out day and night

Can we walk to the south pole just so we could be lost in ice







Maybe that's too much

sounds like I attempt to scare








Can we play with fire

and let passion burn us alive?



Yours,
John

Flash

Quiver, I held a tool

adoration crystalized

interlaced with the many thoughts, expressions and nakedness

thick and concentrated

precious you are



I wrote your name

the way you like to be held






I miss you

I do

A Quiet Party

Lemonade in the make

for a serving for two

weather be it gentle or extreme

sun within sight

when our bodies crave to be refreshed


table sheet not chequered but plain white

an antique tea table on the garden

you might want an extra beverage

one with milk foam layered

with a tempting texture

you'll have the spoon placed on the saucer

more coffee desired


have I told you that salmon blends well with mashed eggs

sandwiched with the freshest greens to make our day

we might want some pancakes with maple syrup

I'll like it sweet and floury 

you'll like it cosy, like home


"Excuse me"

I said as I leave the table

I trotted to the bushes to collect twigs

and plucked a berry 

came back and placed them on your palm


We might be spoilt by what's served on the spread

by a condition

you will read and I shall write

until the sun sets

until the moon rises

until we sleep under the stars

Prayer

That morning

I was dressed in white

Amongst celebration I mourn

a silent funeral and an undertaker


I smile because I witness collective joy

and I weep for the cause of one death

for you shall never know me

you've always chose not to


To fall is always easier

to lift takes you the weight of a hundred light years

I couldn't shoulder

She should be put into a deep sleep

and never wake to the truth

so her dreams could be weaved continuously 

in another dimension

in a foreign realm


Feign, feign your heart and emotions

charm one with your fountain of youth

let her die in your slither 

cold and empty

bottomless

no bed could nurse her wounds

no man could stitch the chasms


Nonsensical gibbers 

I am a fool, remember?

No, you've never known me

you've always chose not to

Ghostly Dawn Whispers

That moment I sing

and tried to dance despite restrictions

it struck like lightning -

the core of mine grew wings



until I traced its ignition 

you, baby

is the matter of fact

my matter of fact







It is about you and I

not technology, not the global village 


you are fond of the aid of my existence

for you are permitted

to create your avatar on my paper

my weltanschauung

as I flush you with a sea of admiration

how can one not be addicted

when you call it mutual

when I spill actions that shout I can't help it



Freedom allows for deceit

it was no rule for none to go against

from the start

long as I serve a purpose

we can always dream, like how you'd always sing

and my purpose is to be your stage

your audience

so that you can mould your visions

ideal, quaint or dark and dainty

you are my drama queen, my drama baby

there, my secret unfolds



I can cease my wish to love

possibly all about self implementation

sometimes bigger things follow suit

a vehicle, a realization

but you know

I love doing it with you

whatever it is that we're doing



There are no restrictions, no rules

Yule is over, Christmas is tomorrow, 

I'll see you, love

somewhere between 40.6700°N, 73.9400°W

Angel

"You're an angel in my sky"



Lets take a space trip to Mars,

or Saturn, even

we pose as scientists

discovering space, much of the unknown

discovering you



Let me bring you to a mud pie restaurant

after a meal

we can decide which density suits our liking

over those little things that wouldn't matter to the universe

so much more to care about

but for having you, at the moment

as the apple of my eye



Tell me what scents you love

what star signs you spot from the dark and

maybe those secret fetish you have about - anything

we can travel to the south pole

snuggle under the deck

play a game of chess and be serious about it

even if I wouldn't be able to have them translated into words

I'm already running free



"You're an angel in disguise"

Silence screeched between us

I want not to ask how, why, when and where

Break routines, break systems, societal norms and constructions

A newborn, I shall remain



I just want to be with you tonight



Expressions should run free

they shan't be restricted

of walls

of perceptions or social contracts

of conflict of interests

My body doesn't feel right

engulfed within -

inwards, an implosion

only a crash could end this intensity

how would I 



Let me hug you 

even cold hallways submit as our tryst

for time was frozen and our pathways were cleared

just for our eyes to meet

hands to hold 

and lips to be sealed 



I just want to be with you tonight



Let me, will you?

Observation

My hair turned blue today

discolouration has taken place

whether it is an addition

or subtraction

signs and tell tales

finally

we exist as one


"But you see no more"

they can not discern

difference of a micro wavelength

there was no need to fight

for peace was sustained from the very beginning of the light


Much connected

sometimes agony is being amplified

biased I was


and when you look back

I cried

I cried so much that its detrimental

I read them but I can not react

forgive me

Personal

I traced the contour of your face

as you granted

as you look right into the core of my eyes

natural light on our faces -



So many thoughts to convey

I wonder where does the stream of source ends

it flows on and on and on

so as my romanticized ideas

deliberately, they run free

bare footed, light weighted

with an innate rhythm

of a wind-chasing beast


My means to an end

fear and consequences;

they do not conquer

for my intentions are not to be wronged

my kindness, of a result

to intrude with no complexity

the old school method, some might say

and a tradition I keep, most importantly





I don't know what I can do for you

Give joy over a preference of sadness

Good company over a preference of solitude

Sometimes I wonder

Not all the time, just sometimes



And as I trace the contour of your face

I tried to sense as much as I can

like a blind man

- just when can I see you again

"I like you"




I blurted

seems effortless

捕捉

天气晴朗

你再从门角进来时

我们望着对方    笑



你把腼腆给释放了

在于你掌控权中 溜走

迷恋我的双眼



是不是  你想起我

对你说爱的意

仰或

我那雄辩 炙热的心




Like a poetry full of esoteric allusions

your smile gave it away


it might be the sun

it might be you

enveloped by warmth, I was

amongst artificiality, the unreal and substitutions

Linear

これは彼女とライオンの物語 ー


彼女
I've been looking for you, you okay?


ライオン
Yeah









彼女
There's something that has been bothering me lately, you know


ライオン
What's wrong?


彼女
Promise me you wouldn't laugh about it


ライオン
Ok


彼女
You promise?


ライオン
I promise


彼女
I've got a pain to solve
Literally, a physical one...


ライオン
What's it?


彼女
I'm feeling... very uncomfortable with it


ライオン
What's wrong?


彼女
How do I put it... pain in the rear?


ライオン
You mean, pain in the ass?


彼女
I'm trying to be euphemistic you see









Strong I am


Strong as stone


It took me forever to open my senses


an analytic alter ago


How you sweated


how you froze


It took longer to be processed


for time was taken


to have particles sunk


on the base of the beaker




I have thus chosen to run free


an extra mile


my intuition took me as far


as how I'd say you'd free me


visuals played in my mind


explicit and loud across horizons


unashamed as they bashed


"God forbids nothing"










Come, lay on the steppe with me


talk to our heart's content


or we can run and wrestle


share the space


as vast as we're blessed with


the sky will do the wonders -


leave it to the stars



I promise


I'll only kiss you when you're


asleep in the deep

Tumult

Push me and my petals fall

distraction is an uncountable noun


They praise, they adore, they marvel

do you want to be god

do you desire to be looked upon

were you winged to be worshipped


Do they feed your soul

do they nourish your roots

do they glorify your presence


Do I cuddle you to bed

do I boost your ego

do I comb your mane and perhaps

sing you a lullaby



"Do not make do"

march with no artificial dignity

dance with no justifications

the world shall be mine

the world shall be yours

and the world shall be ours

Feathery

Seed of a dandelion

She clung onto the sleeve

light and gentle

with minimal existence


She grew up under the moonlight

face so pale

she needs no acknowledgement

no attention

no name to be given

but for a sleeve to cling on

so she travels

see the world

and at the right circumstances maybe

to drop and grow roots

to start a cycle of life


She was supposed to tail the wind

not on humans

anthropochory might crush her

mild build

not autochory,

allochory by nature

no animals

but humans

handing her life to such stand

how rash she was

for a delicate flower




thirty seven hours was how it was measured

in human time

she got in contact

on a sweater

a dirt brown fuzzy looking knit piece

she was brought to a land of steel

concrete

no source to begin with



he brushed her off

from the sleeve

to tear her feathery pappus

an intense electric emission

too short for the comfort of agony

even for the lifespan of a flower seed



nobody gets to fathom a human's heart

she was told by the trees

her ignorance couldn't save her fascination

her construction of reality

it crushed her in return






as she dissolves into waste

her last thoughts were engaged

of what's left







"brushed off your sleeve I was



I've loved you for my eternity



alas, my wish has been granted,



love"

Ra

I am the daughter of the sun

the presence of grandeur

I shine

with the merge

of the respected works of nature

for certain eyes

certain lights

and certain smiles



I looked into your eyes

brazen, a mere choice

there were no hesitations

only a gaze


admiration

our focal point converged





subconscious has overtaken

and swapped roles

breathlessly beautiful you were

that was the price to pay





en route I was

my peripherals drew

I've got a call







it was intense

my pupils dilate

was it a piercing intention

you were trying to reach

did you find out my identity



of my turbulent pursuits

what is to be at stake

am I ready to be -







a cloud dissolves

as rays raced through mediums

a dispersed connection

or rather, a realization cracked

I was in your way

a see through prism





you were attracted

attached to the generosity my father's

just like all beings

just as I

upon his persistent, dominant existence









The day that we could pass

silence with such intensity


is the day we'd fall in love

under the blessing of my father's

Wind

I did nothing

when I think of you

until it all amounts to a collection of waves

a variation of tones

I deliver



you churn out what's less expected of me



as a hunter soars in the sky

heavy rain drops weighted my shoulders

dreams untold, and realized

romance, supernatural and the cyborgs

I think of you

until my next delivery



How I feel about you is authentic

there's absolutely nothing to be embarrassed

it sores for its solitude presence

against superficiality

against intangibles

against faulty intentions

it is strong and truthful





If you hear the rustle of the leaves

calling before the sky dusks

its the frequency I tend to design

to convey

my warmest thoughts of you



how I'm thinking of you



my dear one








Monday, December 9, 2013

Tender

I wanted you to stay

so much that it stirred a blob in my head

for my actions couldn't obey the imagined

"no way out"

my prerequisites has stretched too far 



There you were

with a tinge of nervousness 

honest as you react

no barrier of shower curtains

your hair - tousled and curly

childlike and organic

if only I could be a tad closer to you



I could recall 

white lights with an unpleasant dining set up

your voice, a proposition

I observe

as I absorb

the more I stay awake

the more I seem to fade



I wish I could reach you 

hold you dear and

whisper to you, gently



if only you can take them in

绿的歌颂

大雨点湿了绿色的森林
这醉人的场景
顿时让我忘记了
我是怎么

爱上了你




这神奇的画面
风向  雨飘
绿草舞动的旋律
如果你在我身边
我们可以安静地
赏阅
然而我仿佛会
轻轻勾着你的尾指
与你   肩并肩
赏阅



心    平静



犹如可以
安静的 不做作地
诉说
爱你 是怎么一回事



想你
如高原上流的清泉
细细地
清净地

想你
如匹马
奔波宽阔的草原
顺风     逆风
没有拘束

想你
如黎明的露水
凝在黄花上
温柔且 固

想你
不张扬
可依然   心不在焉





是否我的思念
你   接收了

我捕捉那
针叶树耸立的歌声





亲爱的
我想你

Wildberries in the Woods


I need not to 

spill my dark waters over you

as you sounded placid

albeit wearied, as you state

and for once

I let go



I saw you in a different light

sharp as a sword

you pound and assault

with the speed of light

you retrieve

operated like a default mechanism

a familiar pattern traced

persistently carved -

altogether

imprinted in my internal imagery 

as I digress my open wounds





I like all narrations with 

tactfully designed closures

beginnings - no less

as simple as you sound

as complex as you refrained from falling into



Of all that I gain after I came in contact

I wonder what synapses sparked

in your defined space




Shall we waltz - 

my sun

Buried

You like to capture frames

of the infinite blue

with a flying creature in it

wings spread

light, its tangible possibilities traced



A symbol of

your unique translation

you refused to have it named

you just smiled with an affirmed satisfaction

that you once said

doesn't come upon often



When I measure our distance

from point zero

it was all surreal to begin with

how could this possibly take place

as if paintings were granted a chance to live



I recalled the expressions overflowed

precious

warmth and the sun

they were honest

and one day, I think

I must have it all returned to you-

you, who were, and still is the trigger

that which surpasses my threshold

in awe, I still am

I am thus, touched within


So I shall thank you and

not take you for granted

blessed I was

to have had you met

It's not about how much I'm fond of you

but rather














I was still in bed

waking up to lucid images

and then you greeted my morn

with somewhat mundane routines

I smiled to the contradictions

we don



I've long forgotten how it is

to be submerged in this puddle of liquid

forget categorization

cognition, and such



but good morning,

my dear one

Black Cat

There you were

at the corner

a black mass I spot

why were you static

in this fast pace juxtaposition

did you just froze to

wait for all to pass



Nobody does that you see

I can not recall firm foot steps along that trail

It is indeed, lifeless

except for occasional exchanged courtesies

or hand to lend when in need

and you froze

until I realize -

it did made me ponder



I could have just freeze you longer

to steal or to abduct

like how I always have an image

of taking your hand

running through streets and people

space and time


you and I








You dropped by like a pleasant breeze

like a feline

endearing





I can not have it hidden

my fondness towards you











Sunday, December 1, 2013

Love Song

My subconscious ran free

it was evident 

released by my physique 

I smell myself

dancing in the air

and I smell you

hidden closely within me




I wish I could be closer

seamless between skins

I wish I could be closer

seeing the world through your gauging windows

I wish I could be closer

ears on your back

listening to your pulse

as you tell your stories

stories once written in your life

stories you made up

just you and you to fill the space

beautiful, you are



honey

I have to step out of my body to deduce

she's in love

caught red handed

I don't remember

when did the stars, and the suns once instructed me to do so

I've embraced my fall

just like how one float on sea water

calm and unrestrained




lets sing a song together

gently, and softly

as we witness the dark fall

and the sun rise
