A Puzzled Life

I am Nature's greatest miracle;

one of the Wonders of the World,

yet nature is only a mere part

of our moaning, prejudicial life.

This misanthrope of biting,

in this distraught, wrecked land,

where holding is a hideous crime,

where helping is abhorrent and refutable,

where standing is impertinence,

where loving is a subliminal hex,

I become a living, breathing puzzle;

to be arranged by everybody;

to be solved by none;

to be completed in forsaken time.

Sa lahat ng naisulat kong tula, 'yan ang pinakapaborito ko (at 'yan din 'yung unang tulang naisulat ko ng malaya). Naisulat ko na sa Nuggets, gusto ko lang isulat ulit dito.
