Mom, Habibti
Mother, mother, mum, mama,
Who are you?
Are you just the giver of life?
Mom, madre, mami, mam, ma,
What would you do to protect your babe?
Legal or nefarious means?
Mother, oumi, mama, Haha, mà,
How do you love equally all your babe?
Do you prefer one over another? Why?
Mam, nanay, habibti, ema, mamma,
How do you empower all your babe?
Do you compare them and demean some?
Mami, mother, mom, love, Ema,
Love me for me! Never send me away or leave me!
Mum, mother, maman, madre, Ema,
Don’t break my heart to leave,
Don’t break my heart and hate me!

Crumbly Country
Exert from my book, Perfectly Flawed
What of the ordinary man whose livelihood
Was stolen away? What of his family? Blood,
Sweat, gore, stress, unimaginable fear
Drive his motivation to strive to survive maugre,
While he takes the brunt of the consequences of his leaders.
I was very excited when SM Literature magazine reached out to me for an interview. I hope my answers will motivate your curiosity into reading my book, Perfectly Flawed.

Meet Me Halfway
I’ve perhaps done a lot of things halfway,
Gave up, and moved away rather than fight the fray.
Why do we give up when home is but a minute away?
Doesn’t it’s security call to us from far away?
(Exert from, PerfectlyFlawed)

Rejoice
Jump up revive and rejoice
Life is full of constant noise
Don’t let it slip by without a voice!
Don’t let the whisper build into a noose!
Let it out, and let it boost,
Boost you into the orbit of fools!
Fools for whom life is full of drools
Laughter, and zealous pools
Of people trying not to swoon
From the pressures that life has thrown.
Jump up, rise up, and be blown
By the continuous changes that have flown,
Capture them in your heart and groom,
Tutor loved ones that life is but a broom
That sweeps away misery and doom.
