The Son of the Fallen Serpent
After when God created the whole universe
And had beautify the earth
Before He made the first man
And gave it name Adam
And the woman Eve
He had let His angel
The fallen devil
Whom had Him betrayed
Live on earth
For He was forgiving
And He wants the one who owns evil
Repent
He shared His love
And he there spent
The place separated
From heaven or purgatory
On the seventh day God rested
His creation was finished
The evil owns his power still
God has not taken it
But God was so good
He acknowledge Satan
To the first beings
"Thou must not eat the fruit forbidden
For it gives the knowledge"
Satan transformed to a serpent
He had made a plan
He sprinkled a poison rain to the fruits
And the tree that was innocent
Was now holding the flavor
Of hatred, sadness
Jealousy, violence
All these ignited feelings
Satan had experienced
Submerged deep to the seas
When he found Eve
God let him
The chance was his
God disappeared
And showed none his prescence
So the first snake
Created all other snakes
And also gave them poison
Curse to the bitten person
"Take this fruit, Eve" he said
"You will discover
That there is more than this."
The woman was tempted
The flowers of the tree
Emitted fumes
And it is telling her
To bite this fruit
It was delicious
She tasted
After eating
The serpent transformed to a man
He was naked like Eve
He cast unto the fruits
An enchantment
She felt desire
Upon seeing this man
She felt aroused
After seeing his sun
He approached her
And leaned over her body
And he kissed her
He slid his palms down
On her back
And grasped her curve
He entered her crown
And they both lie down
Adam had seen them
To his self he was asking
What are they doing?
He ran away
After the affair
Satan picked a fruit another
"Share this to Adam
So he will feel this kind of heat
As you had felt on me."
And Eve took it
She ran to him
"Eat this," she said
"You will discover
That you are a master."
Adam took it
He made a bite
"What we are doing?"
He complained
But he had tasted
He threw the fruit away
To them then God appeared
"Why have you broke My command?"
God became angry
He sent them away
Eden became an unfertile land
The soil was mixed with sand
The sun scorched the earth
Where is the devil?
They felt hunger
"What have we done?"
Passed the days
Eve born Cain and Abel
Cain killed his brother
Cain was the serpent's son
His action showed
He commited murder
But God was wise
He let him discover
Apart fron the darkest truth
There is light
That can save him
And it is God.

This Retreat
August 5 - 6
The night before the day
It was Thursday
The computer lab was closing now
So I went down
Evening was coming
I see some classmates
Outside the office
I went there
To ask about retreat
Prince was scolded
Over paper that was late-printed
They asked me, help them
So I go with them
While us waiting
For the others
I went to the music midget building
On the organ
My teacher was playing
I cannot stop my self
Touch the keyboard
After another teacher
And with her talked
How I wish to study
On this club
But if I join
I will have to pay
For an extra fee
I wanted to join the school band
If I will have the time
I wanted to sing
Not the organ
Cause I cannot play it
But on computer
I can create music
That would sound interesting
We left them
Back to the place before them
I waited
Time was passing
It was dark now
I cut a bird
On the streaky material
And help pull the stair
Lying on the stage
And made it to the corners
After cutting letters
I left them
Then I prepared what I have to bring
Signed my parent's consent
By Phobe
Passed evening
Comes morning
The day after the night
It was Friday
I waited with my classmates
On the cluster houses
Took photographs while waiting
There was Ann and Cs
Arrives Nikko
Then Mary
Prince and Janine
Luisa brought her camera
Comes Mr. Gumabong
He did not know
That there was no class
And so
After sometime
He left us
Raymond comes
We have to go
Now us wait to the parking lot
Of a mall
Outside the school
Cause there is no place vacant
For his car to park
Now we are going
Laughed the passengers
Riding the road
We have to fetch
A gallon of water
Where Cs Board
Ann remembers the play
With her boyfriends
While there was rain
And the setting
That was there
They were crying
We reached Calaparan
He turned left when Prince
Stated it was the path
To the meeting place
But it was not the place exact
For it is located
Not in Calaparan
But in Calumpang
So after asking a sir
We have to pass over their school
And turn around
To the road main
And further us go
Now there was a name
On a board that was hanging
To Holy Rosary
The location was familiar
It was our adopted brgy.
Of the college Masscomm
Of the school
It was the place us visited
To comply NSTP
The house retreat was located
Really just near it
The car's engine stopped
Us move out
And signed our names
To our rooms
After the girls
The four males
Room number three
That was for me
Four for Raymond
Five for Prince
And Nikko six
We were the people others waited
Now the first activity
The chairs formed arc
I have to get my bible
Then return back
Gave us Father
The papers folded
Make nine spaces
And list things
About ourselves
Second, a game, signatures most printed
Wins an opportunity
To hand us our snack
And it was Bernie
Then took lunch
Third, know our selves
And others rate it
List own perception
Of who we are for them
Fourth
Our hands drawn
Draw symbols on it
On each part by significance
And by importance
We were given a task
While on rest until one
I draw a place
We have to read the bible's verses
Forty-five Genesis
And Exodus three verse one
I was stricken
Accidentally exchanged
The chapters of each book
I read Genesis three verse one
And the story
Was about the fall of man
Same to the story
The Serpent's Son
Night comes
Took dinner
And Father
Prepared the holy ground
We have to bow like a Muslim
With our forehead
Touching the ground
And our slippers must be taken
Off and tell the Lord our feelings
I hated my friend
For leaving me always
From the day it started
And on this night
The lights turned off
The crucifix was lying
And there were candles encircling
Six persons should occupy around
After others finished
Next the left surround
He will cover our eyes
With a cloth
For when we cannot see
He says
The more we hear
We have to talk by whisper
One at a time
To the persons we wanted tell near
Beside him or her
Luisa and Prince starts the kneeling
Then Raymond
Approached him
Tell him
Accept mistakes
Be forgiving
And be initiative
I want him my best friend
This was the only time
We have to express ourselves
Others cried
Telling they care
Saying they are just beside them
So when they felt losing
I am just beside him
A message to a friend
Can cure the misunderstanding
To my other classmates
I told them
My testimonial on friendster
Forget it now or never
And say thank you
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you
We four talked something about something
While others played cards
Heavily laughing
On the other room
Nikko left
Left us three
And so on he narrated
It was around two
We felt sleepy
So tell goodnight
And we slept
Morning followed
I took my bath early
Others wake up
I walked outside
And ride the swing
Prince was there
Comes Cs and Janine
And then Raymond
It started raining
We ran to the not wet
Back to my room
I waited
Took breakfast
Another activity
The paper given last day
Before the holy ground
Draw us a mat where on the center
We were lying and sick
There are persons, four the number
Raising us before God
List four persons whom we wanted
And I listed
Alex, Harold or Mark and Ederie, my high-school best friends
Raymond and Nikko, this college
And made some paralysis
And on this morning
We made a prayer to God
After that, confession
Took a break for snack
Letlet with her friend
And with me gone to practice
There was no person
Inside this room
Where there is guitar
So she played it
After sometime
The owner of the instrument arrives
We were given time to confess
Others practiced
The songs for the mass obligated
I have nothing to do
So I joined my schoolmates P.T.
But we were not practicing
Instead we sing
Huling El Bimbo
Harana
This manong was good
Over his gitara
We sing other songs
Ambok and Berne
Sings with me
Us three
While Mary
Throw us things
He, he, he
I joined my classmates
The entertainers
Were standing over the bed
Others lie busy on their phones
The ones standing
They were pretending
It was a concert
Me and Mond as audience
Laughing, supporting them
The females left
Mond wants to confess
And so I am
We gone near father
Conversed while waiting
My friend's turn first
Then me
I enjoyed talking
To father Ding
I was the last person to confess
After this
Gone to the room for the mass
I am in-charged of the bell
So I tour from the males to the females
Ringing it signaling
The mass that was soon starting
Four of us were disturbed
By this crawling insect
And smile, laugh little
Cause the mass was gong
And when there were songs played for us to sing
I joined my voice with them
The sign of peace
Kisses
Shaking hands
Other actions excess
We took the bread and dipped it on the wine
While kneeling down
One by one
And the song, Tanging Yaman
Ended the mass
The last song to be sung
Few knew the lyrics
I remember some
My voice was rising
Cut, straight, the flow and cycling
Took pictures after
We move back to our rooms
Packed things up
Then eat lunch
And took pictures on the dinning hall
Fill-up the evaluation sheet
Outside took pictures again
Inside this circle and the background
With the figure of Mary
Holding her son
Over the white clouds
We board Raymond's car
And farewell the retreat house
Conversed stories through the roads
Thank you father
Thank you lord
For this grace-filled gathering
And us
Go home
Satisfied.

The Mother's Revenge
She was a daughter rejected
When she was still small
Her father does not like her
He can live her over pouring rain alone
He can slam the door
Hurt her arm
While her arms hangs the wall
I come to her
Cuddle her
I sing her a song
Put her to sleep
And while the tears
Pour down and until gone
I wanted to cry
My eyes were teary
I felt pity for her
Many years passed
She got married
They have two children
Her husband
Like her father
She was battered
She was so sad
She was so depressed
She leans herself to the wall
Gently slid her back to sit
And put her arms to her face
And catch every falling tear
One day
She fell
Down to the river
And was dead declared
She was pulled down
By her husband
And their children
Upon seeing
Hugged and they cried
And cried
Until their tears are dried
It was raining
They were left alone
By their father
And now their mother
Many years passed
She came back
She killed her husband
She was imprisoned
She was so sad
She was so depressed
She wants to commit suicide
But upon
Thinking her children
She leans herself to the wall
Gently slid her back to sit
And put her arms to her face
And catch every falling tear
Many years passed
She was now free
And people around her
Felt fear
It was raining
On her palm
There was a knife
When she met him
She draws it directly to his heart
And he died
She walked the corridor of the school
Walks away the people
Hearing the news
But it was done
For her children
And for herself
For she hated him
And now
She was free.
Based on a dream.

A Comic
Dancending
I was talking to someone
We were sitting on the same bench
After sometime
I left her
Inside school
I saw two persons
Playing the clock
He put on his finger
On the clock's finger
And turned it around
To the number twelve
The buses passed
I guide a relative
To the pier
She will ride
A ship to them
I was back on this home considered
As ours again
My aunt passed
There was Mr. Julius
He has awaken
He greets me good morning
I answered back
And he told me
Just be careful
Then my mother called me
Fnd my brother
He was in the room
Parallel from where I am
And I entered t
He has grown-up like me
I asked what they were doing
They were watching
A movie something
A pirated copy
It was showing
A woman talking
In front of a television
My brother went to the stereo player
And played a dance music
He showed me his steps
He danced greet
He was joined by my friend
And they both danced wildy
I am not a dancer
But I tried to follow them
Alex's friends were watching
They went down and cheeres
I messed up
They joined us
After the music
Them clapped
Ending.

Ignorante
You are an ignorant friend
An ignorant friend is not a true friend
Therefore you are not a true friend
A logical proposition
Not a good solution
Judging its conclusion
Ignorance befriended untrue
Truth should not be ignored
False should be
Deaf and dumb and drift and numb
Could not hear
Eyes on cover
Vast space where the wind blow tongues
To where these ropes are tied into
The flesh unseen
Only the shadow proves it is not dead
Smile unoticed
From the pleasant curve
Transforms to a sad nod
And the distant eyes
Will only glare to the farthest mile
Summoned the sleeping sigh
Walk a pathway
With whom ever ignorant
And race, the weight is not even
Unbalanced is the line.
