🌆Romantic hour／wind at the window

[cayz @moonymauvee]

mythology and history
are filled with tales of men and their glory,
and are twisted with sins of women and their bodies.
they have subjected women to lewdness
blamed them for patriarchal atrocities,
and cursed them to death for living.

from porcelain, i have become ivory,
from ivory, i have become steel.
i have been in the path many have walked
but seldom get out of.

[cayz @moonymauvee]

can i just slightly brag about how the idea for the poem came to me unexpectedly? it was as if all the injustice that women have ever experienced from the opposite sex controlled my fingertips to conjure this piece.

i am ecstatic.

"they stare at our boobs and grip our butts
as if they were anomalies to the human anatomy,
but they're not; they are not."

In hindsight, ordinary doesn't necessarily mean boredom, sometimes ordinary means freedom.

[cayz @moonymauvee]

I've always wondered why anyone would want to be ordinary, and until now, I still get confused by it. However, there is an incomparable peace that comes with being normal-- to not worry if people will judge you or to live freely without their looming expectations.

[F. Scott Fitzgerald Quotes @F_ScottFitz]

"I’d like my life to be perfect. I’d like to suffer, if I could find something worth suffering for, and I’d like to never do anything low or small or mean, but just have big sins." F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Perfect Life

Sa Pambansang Araw ng mga Bayani, Agosto 31,2020, ating kilalanin ang mga mamamayang nahihirapan, pero nananatiling matatag at mapagmalasakit. Sa mga kuwento ng kabiguan, nakatala rin ang pagkakaisa.

Tayo-tayo ang ating maaasahan at matatakbuhan. Tayo ang #LingkodNgIsatIsa.

When we grew up with someone, it's hard to imagine them doing bad things, because we have this unchanging image of them. So we make excuses, telling ourselves that others are probably lying. But at some point, we have to stop patronizing them, and figure out the truth.
