i reckon this chat. i said i will go travel some place alone. he said he too all by himself.we started talking about how steady yet pensive we both are. what will you bring when you travel,he asked. i said: cellphone,laptop,mp3,etc etc.you missed the camera,he said. oh the camera yes, i said. some pensive chat. we ended thinking maybe it won't be bad to go alone and have someone take each other's picture. we both just laughed.

stuck

i want you to hold my hand and pull me out.
let's walk, let's talk, let's see the world.
i want you to breathe so heavily
and my lungs be filled.
let's run, let's laugh.
i want you to look at me
and i'll close my eyes in peace.
let's dance, let's hear the music.
i want you to be with me and together be amazed.]let's run, let's run. let's see the world.
are we stuck? i wish we know.
time will let us.
someday.
maybe.
maybe.

Made me remember the movement and streets of City of God. Made me remember the realism and substance of Trainspotting. I have to say one of the best that i've watched recently. A great turn out of slum experiences of Jamal for that staggering money. He is a genius? He cheated? It is written? Turns out that "it's written". Made me remember the Arab word "maktub" as used by Coelho in The Alchemist. In the film, "it is written" is "destiny". Spoken like an aphorism. Well destiny it is then for Jamal's series of unfortunate and turn-out-to-be-fortunate events. It is written. Makes sense.

compelling

you sense
you try
you give it a shot
you expect somehow
you wait
you get agitated
you wait
you think twice
you miss
you like
you love
you wish
he'd be compelled
one day
maybe
maybe not
who knows
whatever
goes!
