061410b Bavarian Babes
ah! when i hear about bavaria
i think about the beer bubbles
that cling to my beard after toss
then i saw those orange miniskirt
awesome body, soccer babes
who shakes and grind for kicks
they must have lots to jabulani*
with those body hugging mini
the organizers were not please
ambush marketing they said
that's best i've seen, i would say
far better from football sunday
*jabulani - celebrate from zulo;
name of the soccer ball in
world cup 2010

040710c Waves Is Calling Me
i wear single layer of socks today
i use two for protection from cold
felt so good, my toes could breathe
blood circulation zips to its heights
my toenails turn reddish from pale
but i lost that solid grip on my stride
it could be nice if i can wear shorts
or t-shirts that says 'springtime to me'
and run around the beach whole day
work must comes first for good living
if i have a chance i go up to uppermost
of this structure to peek how's the beach

030610 Cultural Difference
i'm chuckling, not teasing
noting the difference between
culture and gneration, far east to west
but i really understand, i learned
to be like bamboo on windy days
it sway and sway til it breaks away
i guess i'm leaning west
where hugs and kisses are norm
don't do it and you'll be scorn
when i travel to far east
i restrain myself to my descendents
good conduct, put my lips and hands lock
they are catching up, i was taught
go do it; if they don't refuse

041010b When Routine Change
i talked to my friend who just retired
he was very eager to know what, where,
how everybody is doing this time of year
we talk for a good thirty minutes, he is
keeping himself busy planting spring
veggies, fixing the fence, cleaning yard
he can't remember how young i am
he keep asking me when i will retire
or he wants me to be like him, maybe
i sense he wants to come back to work
retirement has left a void in his life
for one thing, he is not boss anymore

042710c Somebody Has Better Plan
from the bridge i see fishes
as big as my palm swimming
going to the lake like parade
line up nose to fin; moves as unit
i wonder if they can see me
i bend over; oh! i dropp my pen
a splash; oh i drive them away
i wish i could swim with them there
with my diving suit, fins and goggles
pet them like in hanauma bay, hawaii
feed them on my palm like puppy
that would be neat, i guess i should
i look around there's a sign in blue
'no swimming, nature's reserve'

031010 Control Yourself
i imagine face of my club
perpendicular to center
of my golf ball, when i hit
to release all my coiled
energy at full speed
it's a learned instinct
that you know if you
have a good contact
by the sound and feel
be calm no matter
what's the outcome
i'm offended by people
smoking cigar while playing
it chokes me, smell lingers
people who show their
temper, slamming clubs
voicing reason for bad shots

042210j It Will Be Solve Sooner
there's monstrous risk in recovery
of natural resources buried beneath
we have a month ago in mountains
now recently at lower level of earth
so many lives were taken untimely
it's our instinctive greed of having
it looks like we are so unsafe & careless
so many incidents the truth we have less
we have well developed media coverage
can't beat that they show live battles in irag
especially gossip hollywood, omg has it
tiger is just so stealthy... not in therapy

051310D fishing by wire
i saw a old man dialing a catfish
he has a car battery on his backpack
connected to a long rod and net scoop
it has this beeping sound; zapping fish
they just belly up and ready for picking
he could have enough fries for evening
i saw small ones float and wash away
some recover, some drown to eternity
i stayed away i'm scared of electricity
i remember feelings of being tasered
you become stiff and it does really hurts
i couldn't ask fish but i saw what it does

042210f Millions Are Still There
breeding fish thought night is coming
starving themselves from not hunting
smell is awfully yucky they throw up
swim away is better chance for gasp
so widespread now beyond eye reach
satellites has assign a visual signature
collect and burn a brain child; brilliant
they did a few; it's on prime time show
called navy for assistant, fishermen too
their boats ready to lay down scoopers
previous estimate is too low; much flow
ther are tens of millions beneath the sea

051110C happy awakening
brightness slowly showing her lips
kissing vast surface including leaves
pushing nocturnal creatures to caves
while we get ready coming out of eves
we check our body before getting up
did we lost any sleeping through night
i stretch to my satisfaction i'm complete
my hair, my limbs even my aging teeth
i smile and pat my back; pick up weight
did few curls to stimulate these muscles
i lined up few golf balls putted to a cup
oh! my footprints makes it break to right
