ALTITUDE

Today

to heelflip,

switchstance, 

a radical

tendency.



Forget it 

not 

to doff 

the altitude


to the Highest


who fed air

to your stunt.

Kung masipag kang pumila, dagdagan natin ng sago, na ititimpla sa kabilang kariton. Lalo’t hindi sapat sa iyo ang suka. Huhukayin natin ang natitirang lupa sa gutter ng kalye. Lalagpasan natin kung saan may hagdan paakyat, lulundagin natin ang bawat baitang. Magiingat tayo sa lumot. Higit sa mga hantik.

Manunuod tayo ng pagong sa batis ng golf kors. At babatiin ang mga smol taym mangingisda sa gilid. Ngingitian ang mga isdang nauuntog sa kalyo ng tubig kakaiwas sa mga bitag ng lupa. Mapapagod tayo sa kakahabol ng tingin sa bolang puti. Kaya mag-uunahan tayo mula sa peborit spot mo hanggang sa peborit spot ko. Ipaliliwanag ko
