Mute Crayon Box

We used to have different opinions. The ones that is passed through hours or days of reading, discussing, and analyzing things. The ones you believe it as your truly opinion. Not as other’s which you agree because it is well written passages without grammar mistakes.

It is good that information spreads instantly, minutes, seconds, milliseconds. But we’ve created a mute crayon box. Ones that just passed a button of Like or Share.

Fate of a nation will be decided sooner, kings will rise and fall, leaders will speak louder at nightfall. Among all that chaos, pen is still mightier than explosive. Especially pen that writes well written passages without grammar mistakes.

Put on your war paint.

There will come a day that you don’t need to break crayon sticks to color a picture. There will come a day that you’ll stint one another to understand better. Exchanging colors and get darker, or brighter. Clearly for sure, richer. Richer in knowledge, richer in perspective. The terms is getting better, the speculation is becoming smarter, the rumor is spreading faster. Those intelligent bastards, I see why you’re there now, with all that power. But we’ve already put on our war paint, and maybe we’ll see. Who will be releasing the doves at the end.

Have a good Sunday, sky arches.

Ocean is Wiser

Crossword puzzle.
Smell of morning coffee.
Sunny-side up.
Today’s headline.

Sometimes you wished to vanish into thin air.
Hundreds of people didn’t, yet they did.

You don’t know how they throw anger or suspicion.
You don’t know how curious those professionals.
You don’t know how painful that could be.
You could only guess.
Are they there yet?

Like Earth, Ocean is wiser.
We could only wait at the departure lounge.
Or somewhere between the traffic jam.
Despair, despair.
Temper, temper.
Are they there yet?

Sometimes you wished to vanish into thin air.
I forget sometimes, are you fiction or literature?
Because you’re standing between the line.

Leap

Yesterday, I saw her standing near the rear door. Among people entering and exiting the cramped bus, you were special. Not because the red coat you wore or some orange bunny keychain you hung on your bags.

You held tears for the entire ride. You’ve tried to hide all those emotion with a red and blue shade around your face. But you couldn’t hide the wrinkles around your forehead, or the gasp you held once in a while.

We got off on the same buss stop. It started to rain and you didn’t bring any umbrella. I handed you mine, patted your shoulder, and said, “Everything is going to get better.”

We might not meet again. Name, reasons, decisions, stories. I’ll never know yours, and you’ll never know mine.

You’ve Got Moves Like Kelly Sister

So, you’ve got moves like Kelly sister.
Voices like Roxie.
Swaying like Billy.
You’ve watched Pulp Fiction, and this is not the time anymore.
You should channel your inner Linklater and gone off those train trip somewhere.
Somewhere far, somewhere bright, somewhere purple-ish and pastel-ish.

Oh, you’ve been there.
Higher than the stratosphere.
Further than the glacier.

You’ve got the gear and you’ve got the lightning.
You speak in unison to the whole universe.
You’re witty and I’ve got your messages.
You’re not trying to be plastic.
And I know you’ll be the one, shimmering with light and laser. Smoke and fire.

Hang in there, little lover.
Stay in there, lover dove.

I know you’ll get in trouble one day.
But you’ve got moves like Kelly sister.
And you’ll be conquering the ground.
With those tables and numbers. Reports and papers.

But, you’ve been there.
Higher than the stratosphere.
Further than the glacier.
You will be alright.

Circus Parade

There is a circus parade across town.
A place you’ll never forget.
Experience you’ll find nowhere else.
A cannonball that blasts people.
An arrow shoots to the heart.
A clown freak that juggles glass ball.
Animals play with fire.

Doesn’t it happen all the time?
Doesn’t it happen to all of us?

There is a circus parade across town.
Alluring. Breathtaking. Liberating.
You refuse to be there. Yet you’re already there.
Taking pictures and clapping side by side.

Multicolored mist, all that illusion.
Black will never suits you.
Someday we’re going to wake up, from those soap operas and the butchery.
Someday we’re going to wake up, and switch off the TV.
We put back the arrows right where it belongs.
To the head that deserves that.
