Tangay ng Hangin - February 21,2024

11:23 - 11:29 AM

Ano nga ba ang halaga ng pisong may bigat Kumpara sa isang libo na kay daling liparin ng hangin. Sa panahon ngayon ay mas matimbang ang magaan Kumpara sa bagay na mas mayroong tunay na bigat.

Nagpapaalipin sa salaping tinatangay lang ng hangin. Ganyan na ngayon ang batayan ng halaga ng pagkatao. Kahit ano pang ang bigat ng iyong pinapasan, Lahat iyon ay maglalaho sa isang bulong ng hangin.

Bulong na nagtataglay ng kapalarang libo-libo ang kapalit. Bulong na hehelehin ka sa kumpas ng paghihirap. Bulong na bawat pantig ay iyong bibilangin ng walang katapusan. Bulong na bawat hinga ay nagdadala sayo papalapit sa hukay.

Mapapatanong ka nalang sa hangin. Ano nga ba ang halaga ng pisong may bigat Kumpara sa isang libo na kay daling liparin ng hangin?

The Killing Kind - November 16

Is part of a writing challenge: The Eternal Sleeping Beauty

❝ 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙 ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀is the kind of land ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀that only knows ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀of days gone morose.

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙 ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀is darkly grand - ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀gore and glory ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀is the heard story.

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙? ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀One who stand ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀with broken wings ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀and tons of shillings.

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙 ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀is the kind of band ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀playing with thorns ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀and growing horns.

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙 ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀is the new brand ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀for goods like you ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀to turn askew.

Or better yet, if you do not want to fret, turn a deaf ear to these unlove language because 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙 has spread on earth and 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘯 𝔢𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔫𝔞𝔩 𝔰𝔩𝔢𝔢𝔭 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘣𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘥, 𝘮𝘺 𝖇𝖊𝖆𝖘𝖙𝖎𝖊. ❞

Withering Blossoms - November 17

Is a part of a writing prompt: The Eternal Sleeping Beauty

❝ 𝒜 𝓯𝓪𝓻𝓮𝔀𝓮𝓵𝓵 𝓉𝑜 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓫𝓵𝓸𝓼𝓼𝓸𝓶𝓼, ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀to a world I have carefully crafted ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀and painted with such gentle strokes.

𝒜 𝓯𝓪𝓻𝓮𝔀𝓮𝓵𝓵 𝓉𝑜 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓫𝓵𝓸𝓼𝓼𝓸𝓶𝓼, ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀all sixteen petals crumpling and distorting ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀as thorns prick at me beyond my broken vase.

𝒜 𝓯𝓪𝓻𝓮𝔀𝓮𝓵𝓵 𝓉𝑜 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓫𝓵𝓸𝓼𝓼𝓸𝓶𝓼, ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀as the weight of the killing kind ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀pulls me down to the land of tainted souls.

𝒜 𝓯𝓪𝓻𝓮𝔀𝓮𝓵𝓵 𝓉𝑜 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓫𝓵𝓸𝓼𝓼𝓸𝓶𝓼, ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀as I choose to have the most selfish desire ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀to wake and live in a new unblemished realm.

Fourth Quarter of 2023. [October]

art works and poetry, chronological order.

please don’t judge my art…i’m not exactly a Bob Ross descendant

Mirage - October 1 12:34 - 12:36pm

When the skies and the seas collide, it creates a mirage-like bomb drowning one sense one after the other until your whole being is sucked in a different universe.

*inspiration: https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=1252711348941922

Ilalim ng Ulan - October 24 1:27 - 1:30

Minsan nais ko lang tumayo sa ilalim ng bumubuhos na ulan. Walang payong o kapote, Normal na pananamit lang, Habang ang mukha'y nakatingala. Mga mata'y nakapikit. Tulo ng mga luha, 'Di mapagkaiba sa tulo ng ulan. Tapos humihinga lang ng malalim Hanggang sa gumaan ang loob.

Minsan nais ko lang tumayo sa ilalim ng bumubuhos na ulan...

Third Quarter of 2023. [August]

art works and poetry, chronological order.

please don’t judge my art…i’m not exactly a Bob Ross descendant.

Atlantis - August 28

6:17 - 6:22pm

The muted waves call out to me beckoning me to leave everything and come home to Atlantis.

But I can do nothing but be because being still is the only thing while I'm away from Atlantis.

Oh how my feet stay dry while my eyes they cry for I long for my home, oh Atlantis.

In the city I see the sky but I always ask the big why. Why am I not in Atlantis?

The muted waves, my silent cries. How I long for my home, oh Atlantis.

But I can do nothing but be because being still is the only thing while I'm away from Atlantis.

(no title) - August 30 Small sketchpad + Oil Pastel

Fire Ink - August 31

12:20 - 12:25pm

I've bled enough ink that's there's nothing else to think because just like that in a blink, everything's gone down the sink.

It's like my power's long gone, as if my mission is done. All of the thoughts have run after I fired my creative gun.

Bumubulong na Ilaw - July 17

9:14 - 9:16pm

Sa likod ng bumubulong na ilaw ay ang pagasa ng makinang na bukas. Nagaantay lamang sa unti-unting paghilaw sa ating hardin ang mga prutas.

Lingering Fear - July 18

5:17 - 5:19pm

The fear from yesterday still lingers and dampens the clear skies with footprints of gray clouds.

Against The Stars - July 18

7:27 - 7:30pm

She's a girl caged by the stars. Her faith revolves around the elements. Her days are filled with begging for the signs.

What can she do? She's just a girl caged by the stars.

He's the boy fighting the stars. His faith goes against the elements. His days are filled with rejoicing against every sign.

What can he do? He's a boy waging a war against the stars.

He's just a boy, Against every star That's caging his heart, Caging her.

Dragon Eyes - July 3

11:30 - 11:34am

It's always those with dragon eyes that leaves me with silent cries. Out of pain or out of too much happiness, all I know is I get sucked in a spiral that's endless.

I don't know what to make of everything. But the dragon eyes are better than nothing. At least the eyes are something.

It's always those with dragon eyes that I think I found a possession so prized. Leave me in pain or even happiness, all I know is I get sucked in a spiral that's endless.

Just because of those dragon eyes…

(reading Alternative Alamat) - July 6

12:57 - 1:00pm

To be lost in a world of fantasy, In a land of realms holding my history Is an experience to behold.

A land full of stories from up above And whispers of rumors from down below, Everything is a story left untold.

Living in the present, I dive and breath the trees As I read and digest every word in bold.

Ulan - July 9

5:32 - 5:38pm

Mula sa iilang pag patak Ay unti-unting bumuhos Ang musika na hehele. Karangyaan kung isipin. 'Di lahat ay nabiyayaan Ng pusong gaya niya. Ang pagluha ng ulap? Tila ba'y nalulunod Sa ligayang dala Ng mabigat na alapaap.

skulltales: novem

[nov.2 entry]

It grows in lumps of greenery and gives the world an image of finery. But the pastoral days shall come and go leaving them in the down low.

Best believe that it's a cycle of life where one is high on strife and the next it wakes to a better day, welcomed by the warmest and brightest sunray.

No one really knows how they have changed, or how they start to get estranged. Which once the wind danced with together Now seemed like there won't be a forever.

These once lumps of greenery that gave the world an image of finery has now come and go. Each one now crispily breaking below.

Autumn leaves.

skulltales: novem

[nov. 1 entry]

She stares at her room's rickety ceiling as she ponders whether it is worth grabbing a coffee with her friends out today. A finger rubs angrily at her oily face and soon she finds herself picking at the dirt in the tips of her long nails. Accumulated dirt was forming giving her hands a grubby look from all the head-scratching she's done for the past 2 weeks. And in those 2 weeks, she has refused to step foot in the bathroom, rendering her too-much-dyed and dry hair to clump and tangle in the ends, causing most of her available combs to break in two.

It itches, her face. The tips of her fingers could already feel the pimples growing on her greasy forehead. But even the painful growing pimples on her face do nothing to tug her away from her bed.

Not even the odor that she could smell from her 2 weeks of unwashed underwear. She doesn't exactly know how and why she is still able to tolerate her current physical state.

It's a miracle her parents have not complained. Or maybe they have, but chose to be silent about it, thinking that their daughter would find it offensive? After all, she can already see herself getting defensive and making lame excuses for not taking a shower in so long.

Personal hygiene? Seems like a foreign thing for her crumpling soul from the inside.

“I avoid my reflection. I’m afraid of what it will show me.”

FELIP 'Bulan' Official MV - Fan Theory

note: I haven’t done an in-depth research and just jotted this fan theory of mine after watching it one time. and yes, this “write up” is pretty informal since it’s the “first theory” that came to mind.

click here for the MV.

So the beginning clearly states that Bulan is nothing but mere Filipino mythology. And in first look, it is, no doubt. But this mythos about Bulan, the moon god, is more than just a story being told. It is - in my biased opinion - a symbolism of the current politics happening. Let's not play dumb and ask all the WH & H questions. The PH 2022 elections was heated with Marcos and Robredo running for the position.

FAIR WARNING, this isn't a professional review as my thoughts are clouded by my political choice. If you're not sensitive, then read on ahead. But if you so much say anything against this review without considering the fact that I WARNED YOU, then please kindly LEAVE as I do not want to start a war.

The opening scene is pretty much given. Bulan (Ken) is portraying one of the Marcoses. It's important to note that he is wearing tribal clothes (you'll see why the clothes are important to remember). Clothes that are considered ancient or is in the past.

Bulan then approaches a bamboo shed with a basin of water which I think represents rebirth or a 'mirroring' of the past by the present. The sun then sets, replaced by a blood moon. Take note, BLOOD. Where do we see blood, mostly? In war. In deaths. And then an intro for the music lead by an electric guitar. The intro gives off the vibe of a villain, which further urges me to believe that this has something to do with evil.

The lyrics is timely with the current political "war" that happened just merely days ago between those who chose red and pink. The video further unveils a red sky or a red backdrop which I still think is pointing toward the war or the aggression that the past Marcos regime has put the nation through. And mainly because the red part of the PH flag is a literal meaning that war is upon us.

Bulan is then walking on sand, and fire follows his every step. It could mean destruction, or perhaps an intense passion? Who knows, the current Marcos hasn't sat as president for even a day. He has not proven himself just yet for me to say that it's about his passion for the country.

After a few more scenes, a new character (a woman) comes in and she is veiled in red. Being a matriarchal society, I first believed that the new character represents the Philippines. Note that the veil is red as well? A veil that blinds and binds the woman in whatever lies are given. It is also shown that Ken's silhouette (in modern clothes) is veiled in the same manner. The lyrics then introduces us to who the female is - Bulan's female counterpart, Haliya the moon goddess. As I stated earlier, the PH is very matriarchal in culture which led us to use 'she' when pertaining to our nation. Which could also mean that Haliya is somewhat a representation of the Philippines.

Bakunawa (dragon) then appears. Its eyes is an important thing to watch out for because of it being yellow. And even before, the color yellow is already associated with another political group, the Aquinos, who is also believed to be Robredo's back-up and support.

As stated above, water represents rebirth or a 'mirroring'. This second appearance of water, I think, is the rebirth while the basin of water previously is of the 'mirroring' aspect. Ken as Bulan (who happens to represent Marcos Sr.) is reborn as another Marcos (Marcos Jr.) which is probably why the next scene is that of the version of Ken wearing a modern style of clothing.

There is a transition wherein Ken is wearing modern (all black, leather) clothes. But when he is in this outfit, the whole scenery is gone and is replaced by a simple black backdrop. So is the floor. This, I believe, represents the current Marcos while the tribal outfit represents the past Marcos.

Lastly, the song ends with Ken singing. "sunod na BERSIKULO". In Spanish, bersikulo directly translates to the english term, 'verse' On the other hand, if bersikulo is entered in google translate, it means 'berserk'.

If 'verse' is used for it's translation, I'd like to believe that the current regime has yet to show/prove themselves as when Ken sings this certain line, no further lyrics follows. No other words to show us what to expect.

Meanwhile if 'berserk' is what we are going to consider as what 'bersikulo' mean, then does this mean that the current Marcos is literally a berserk leader?

As the song ends, Ken as Bulan, is seen standing in an empty cliff with a serene ocean. And as the song goes, Bulan (moon) is Ken. So he is looking - mirroring - himself in a peaceful, or perhaps just the hush after the chaos, kind of night. A night no longer lightened by a blood moon.

My Interlude

created a poem from the POV of my current character from my ongoing story on wattpad, ❝𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐞.❞

will be deleting this post in a few months as I will be re-posting this on my YELLOWHIPPO’s 2023 compilation here on tumblr.

This is my interlude. A short prose as time goes into a pause and life temporarily conclude.

This is my interlude, where I come to a stand still. But my emotions pass through a mill, not letting me close and conclude.

This is my interlude. Looking at one intersection point, choosing where my steps anoint. Will I be able to conclude?

This is my interlude, allowed to be timeless but also clueless as to how to conclude.

This is my interlude.

Part one out of two Mermay posts that were commissioned for me.

Commission Title: Mermaid Mimi.

This is my character, Miranda Schneider, faceclaim: Julie Yaeger-Rudd. Who is Julie Yaeger-Rudd? Paul Rudd’s wife. Yes, I based a character on Paul Rudd’s wife.

I picked her for Mermay because she’s a Pisces, and I personally love her character (yeah, I know, I shouldn’t say that since I created her).

Artwork is by @izesketch

Miranda Schneider is created by me.
