Red ink on white

Zinnia Bilbao 2008 (Koronadal City)

Free verse
A smear, red ink on white
A new part of me
It may represent a scared perfection
But it looks magnificent on our own characteristics

The feeling that so refreshing
Any snarky word
A genuine laugh
A volcanic that is about to explode and the leak seemed to flow and flow

To be in sync with the moon
To dream with the sky
To be with the sunrise
That gives light in the dark

How could you hate me?
Is it I'm bleeding?
What is gross if you start a life in your Mom's womb nourished by her blood.
