Of Stitches and Burns

The ceiling stared at me

Unblinking, slowly enveloping me
As I hear my heartbeat
Contemplating, lying in my forlorn bed
Yet the ceiling sees my agony
Searing, thru my own eternity
Unmuted, the whiteness of the ceiling clear
Understanding without me explaining fear
Sympathizing on my silent whimperings
O! Ceiling ... Wished you'd carry the weight on my wings

I sided on my left
The wall embraced me so abreast
Almost feeling my breath
So close to the walls' caress
Four inches away my face against the wall
Telling me to go ahead... Cry and let it fall
The tears rolled down on my left of cheeks
Silently the wall intently watched so quick
Together, ceiling & the wall heard my sobs
The wall almost pounded with utmost throbs
I laid on my back and there the ceiling saw
The redness in my eyes ...
The vestige of tears
With marks, slow to heal
Poems they said are all unfinished
Like this memory carved not missed

(You taught me to experience the bliss of muted ecstasy - witnessed by the ceiling and walls, with eight corners opposite each other to form the so-called "Room")

How to Configure your Gmail to a Mail Client like Outlook

With the overrated scandal about the Petraus affair - the CIA general from the US who was caught red handed due to his email trails about an extra marital affair via Gmail, i think it's just about timely to write Email Configurations; how to port your emails to Mail Clients such as Outlook or Thunderbird or Alto Mail.

It's imperative that you use your Gmail account to do this because IMAP and POP are free for Gmail users. As for Yahoo fanboys, you have to let your Gmail account fetch those emails from Yahoo first then configure your Gmail for Outlook.

Sails and Hiccups of Yesterday

Inch by inch thy smile faded
With irk, thy hands trembled
Pushing away the monotone
Of lies... Of lies.. Of lies
Unsettled, thy intent to cause grief
Along the way, like the stillness
Of a windless night..
Thy curse, rebounded
Back at thy face, poker, sad
Luminous as the calm lake
Terrorized with oblivion
Of being forsaken, ignored and battered
Swimming, into a whirling "i can't believe" thoughts
Nowhere to go...
But whimper in sorrow
Crunching, barely bearing insanity
And yet, redeemed
Again by a mere realization
Of the power of intimacy




PS:
in here, i'm applying the rule of a persona poem - it's a dramatic monologue spoken in the voice of a character created by the author. the above poem was made by putting myself's feelings to another entity. It's best not to elaborate further to veil the mystery behind it.

The Road Less Travelled

Indulge, in the magic of neverwhere...





Love Poem by Linda Pastan
I want to write you
a love poem as headlong
as our creek
after thaw
when we stand
on its dangerous
banks and watch it carry
with its every twig
every dry leaf and branch
in its path
every scruple
when we see it
so swollen
with runoff
that even as we watch
we must grab each
other or
get our shoes
soaked we must
grab each other

PS:
i guess, not everyone's appreciative anymore of poetry nowadays, the love for the visuals brought by instagram and DSLRs are so rampant, they induce immediate delicacy to the mind.

but how about feeding your heart? Or when are you going to wake up for you to feel the endless intoxication brought by your sense of imagination?
