"i should have known that since day one
stood on a balcony with my goddess"
thought Dylan, closing his eyes.
below the lit sky.
amidst dark tall buildings.
screams and shouts of people having fun below.
it all reminded dylan of a perfect setting
for a batman movie.
he smiles.
he shifts his smiling head slightly.
"i would want to place her in a beautiful glass tank
just so i can keep her perfectly preserved."
"forever"
"and i could."

spui
crumbling pavement
have i made friends
instructional guide
make love and make amends
one two three
i'll see you on the tree
don't look back now
it's the greatest you'll ever see
i need a blanket
warm and soft
free from thorns and thicket
this sanctuary
is my cell
my six by nine
everything happens here
everything i want
they come and they go
colors they bring
will never escape my synapses
oh the clamour of the crowd
gives way to the grinding mechanisms
enormous clockwork that work beneath
turning and chugging
fueled by blood and oil
sweat and tears
fast foward
taste the champagne
smell the stench
of formidable and rampant sex
the parties and fellowships
numbers and decisions
dive deeper
and drop into the muddy pool
...of world domination...

she's special
dylan climbed into his seat. flicks on a switch and Hendrix flows in. humming along, he punches the necessary keys to log in. the vessel lights up.
"good morning, sunshine!"
"hee!"
as the ship's vital readings flash across the screen, dylan frowns. 30.1 units heavier?
"you're early, kid...and you smell good"
"don't i always?"
incidently, dylan knows of only one other Child who weighs that odd much. and she always arrives at least an hour later.
"what's shaking?"
"what's not?"
she's daphne. and she's special.

she's daphne. and she's special.
billions of blistering blue barnacles
blitzed. in class.
my sneezing friend complains. he leaves. he returns.
alain enters. presentations, anyone?
anyway...
i'm in weird state of being. right now.
not unfamiliar.
a different shade, though.
the hunger of knowledge makes me.
and it breaks me.
sneezing friend talks to quiet hottie.
(she's not so quiet now, apparently)
i want to know everything.
everything.
everything.
sneezing friend regrets living over 20
before he had the balls to graduate.
i hear him.
i'm stuck.
i'm about to graduate with not enough skills to earn a decent income.
the mumbling continues...

i am here
dylan stood at the center of the clearing, drinking in the sunrays.
head tilted back, arms stretched out.
"excuse me while i kiss the sky!"
"hee!"
i am here.

world aids day
i'm off from work today so i made sure i caught up with sleep. woke up at a comfortable hour. showered and went downstairs to see what mum had cooked. she was glad that i decided to stay at home today. so am i.
had lunch while watching 'staying alive' on mtv. it's a show by Staying Alive to bring forth the current status of AIDS/HIV awareness around the globe. i found it really surprising to know that there still many many young people in the most advanced countries who know very little about AIDS/HIV. it is believed this is because of complacency. not knowing much makes one feel that he/she has no chance of getting AIDS/HIV. i think it is dangerously ridiculous for anyone to smile and claim that someone with AIDS would have tell-tale symptoms such as dark spots.
gawd!
the show also featured the efforts made to educate the masses in countries such as india, china and tanzania. these are the places where the number of people living with AIDS/HIV are the highest in the world. in india, there are about 5 million (mostly youngsters) . in china, 10 million. and in tanzania, every 7 out of 10 people have AIDS/HIV. i'll let that sink in...
india and china utilize the media and celebrities to spread the message and this includes tv shows and major films. but i like what they do in tanzania: performing arts. you see a group of people putting up a show on the streets. roadside theater! i'd love to go there just to watch the little kids in funky costumes doing funky dances while singing "KILL AIDS!"
it warms my heart greatly to see how people do whatever they can to take part in the fight against AIDS/HIV. these are our real heroes today.
