| The picture that you see above was created by Maysa Arabit, the very same person upon whom i based my character in the book. Within its pages you will find more of her sketches and Earl John Desuasido's as well. |
| I think this is one of my more surrealistic musings. It came into being after i watched "Shakespeare in Love." Like so many who had watched the film, I was so inspired... |
| Metaphysical Kiss How I relish saying your name! (though you are not the one I am currently addressing)� How I savor the syllables sliding against my tongue�that I could almost taste the sweet-cadences of the sound! I speak your name and the very air quivers upon my lips like a shy kiss fleetingly touching the shimmering edge of a disappearing rainbow� I whisper your name in the mute-stillness and the stillness begins to stir� For, like a haunting tune, it unceasingly sings, beating like a hidden heart filled with fiery life and unbearable delight� The sound of your name slides down the walls of my lonely room� caressing each surface with passion barely controlled, creeping with stealthy, playful little steps� ready to spring forth once again from the smile secretly hiding within my soul� How I relish saying your name� for it sounds like the smooth flowing of jelled ink across expensive white paper� or the whisper of a turning page as it mates with the one awaiting its sensuous fall� Your name is the whisper of flowery scents that sail on the creases of a silken night� It is the shower of light poured out by a knowing moon as it bathes the stretched-out arms of naked trees� Your name is the sigh of a lonely pebble drowning in the dark depths of a star-dappled pool� whereat the bottom it finds a welcoming bed of throbbing notes� whereupon it retires to awaken before dawn� I speak your name and it feels like you are already here, as though you were about to take me into your embrace� I say your name and it is your kiss upon my waiting lips� And for now, I am satisfied, relishing the feel of this metaphysical kiss� |
