Efficient, Convenient,
Loud and Bright,
Grungy and Concrete,
And covered in Vinyl Banners.
I go to the store, my local Wellcome,
And new vinyl banners are up,
Tied on with zip-ties,
Saying different things:
Some from the government,
"Don't Litter", "Recycle",
One's about Mosquitos.
Many are from politicians
Two faces, two names, some vague party slogan.
Never quite clear for what election.
I sit in the bus and look out the window,
A vinyl banner outside the Rural Committee.
"Oust Corruption, Support the Will of the People."
The light turns green, and the bus moves on.
Next week a new banner, green instead of pink,
"Support the Will of the People, Help Oust Corruption."
A man and a woman come to the school.
And teach us to use the banners,
How to make stationary boxes out of the vinyl.
"To help save the environment"
All the banners are monochrome.
Clearly printed for this workshop.
I walk home to the bus station on the way home from school.
Another electoral banner, but this one's cut up.
Some politicians face stabbed, with a knife or scissors.
I look at the banner, wondering what it said that made them so angry,
I see no answers.
I look at the vinyl box,
Taken home from that workshop
It's bad and saggy, and always falls over.
I keep it out of spite.
Covered in Vinyl Banners.
Grungy and Concrete,
Loud and Bright,
Efficient and Convenient.

Andersonās boots dragged along the termite-ridden staircase, too weary to lift them more then was required to ascend.
Scrape. Thunk! Scrape... Thunk!
Each time he moved up a step his boots swept across the top to smack into the edge before pulling itself over to proper footing. At the atticās entrance, Anderson placed his palm to the door, brushing it downwards exhaustively in an effort to open it with minimal force. As the entrance cleared, door opening with loud creaks and groans from poorly maintained hinges, Anderson pressed into the room. Maul dropping from his hands with a booming Thud, he immediately made for the bed. Turning and dropping his full weight backwards, Anderson bounced with the give of the mattress then heard the crack of a dilapidated frame piece. Great, he thought with a pinch of the bridge of his nose.
Painfully hissing he removed his boots one at a time before dropping them aside without bringing himself up all the while. In his current state heād not even noticed his younger brother, Tommy, sitting at the table playing with a deck of cards.
Swiveling in his seat, the young boy hopped from the chair before bolting for the bed. Tackling into the side of the frame, Tommy vaulted over the edge of the bed, scurrying over Andersonās body to lay on the other side of him. When Tommy bounced over the older brotherās body, Anderson let out a pained grunt, his face contorting before shutting his eyes.
āGot to finish the story, Addy. Been waiting all night for you tā get home anā I canāt sleep without a story.ā Tommy said whilst trying to rock the arm of Anderson.
Anderson let out a sobbing groan of defiance, his lower lip protruding outward.
āCanāt we just do it tomorrow, Tommy, mā just so tired already.ā
Tommy however remained resolute in his demands, shaking Anderson even harder now until the agitated man finally gave in.
āEvery fuckinā day heād sing to the fuckinā winds!ā Anderson shouted.
With a harsh slap to Andersonās forearm, Tommy pushed his hand into the side of Andersonās head and began rocking it side to side.
āTell it right!ā He shouted.
āFine, fine, fine...ā Anderson rambled on, resisting the urge to fall into a deep slumber.
āSo every day the giant sang, anā every day the winds brought it to the mountains. Anā on the windās return it carried the warmth of the womanās song, keepinā the giant company along the cold seashore until the day came that-ā
A long pause ensued, too long for dramatic effect. With the sound of a snore rumbling from Andersonās throat, Tommy began shoving again.
āUntil what day!ā
āFuckinā, hell- the, what?!ā Anderson jolted looking to either side before easing himself down again.
āHe could go home.ā Anderson continued on after a sad groan.
āHeād fight for months, but every second-summer the creatures disappeared without a trace. The lands were safe again, anā he knew heād not be needed for another season. When the time finally came for his deserved rest, the giant was pleased to sing to his lover- āIām cominā homeā heād say, anā then his trek began.ā
Andersonās hand waved through the air in a flowing motion.
āAcross the River of the Aera heād paddle in his longboat for three days anā three nights, all the while singināā to the winds āIāll be home soonā.ā
His fingers then made a walking motion.
āThen through the plains of the wheatlands heād march, collecting bushels of golden stocks for his supper, still singinā to the winds āIām almost thereā. Until finally-ā
Anderson held his hand up to halt, his palm flat in the air before dropping suddenly onto the bed.
āHe found the Lake of Whispers.ā Anderson began murmuring quietly, his hushed voice trying to mimic the sound of the fabled Lake.
āBut-ā Anderson held up a finger.
āThis summer held a surprise for the giant. Now heād seen all the things this land had. He knew every tree, every boulder, every creature along his journey anā most of them by name! But this season held somethinā new. Along the shore of the Lake was a great hole. Deep anā wide, the Giant gazed down into the endless void, his voice echoing off itās walls as he tried to make sense of how far it ran. All was quiet while the giant stared inward, until something answered back...ā
Tommyās eyes widened, his small fingers raking further over Andersonās forearm.
āWhat was it? What answered, Addy?
Was it a monster?
Addy?
Addy!ā
Tommy tugged and pulled at Andersonās unconscious body, but nothing shook him this time. He was down for the count, out cold, 100% asleep, some fourth metaphor. Then with a defeated sigh, Tommy rolled himself out of the bed. Scooping up the lone blanket the brothers had that now lay on the floor, Tommy pulled himself up again doing his best to drape it over Anderson.

Don't know what I am going to write.. I am just feeling bored.. So better find something to do..
Next to me.. next to my bed... next to the table in the kitchen as well.. There are plenty of books I need to read in order to finish my final report but.."Nah... it makes me sleepy.. "Ā
... 5 minutes gone, still an empty mind..Ā
........ Another 10 minutes, was chatting with my friends... " I'm behaving like A MAN".. what an awesome complement of him to me.. made me wonder .."duh, WTH???"
Really? DO I act like a guy? pas du tout... for REAL??Ā
But, yeah.. there is a good point in it that I have a new disease.. new fear besides SPIDERS, CREEPY things... LOVE??!! Ā [ WTF am I talking about right now???]
Talk about LOVE, which reminds me about blood ---> i've been bleeding too much and to prevent me from BLOOD shortage.. i would like to stay away from it.. [cause even without Love, I still found myself got bleed so many times, just like this morning.. bleeding ear.. Mother******???]
Going through my currently affair right now.. IĀ realizeĀ that I'm really INTO him.. I have to see him everyday.. his picture on my wallpaper, on my phone theme... even inside my ring... IS IT LOVE ??? XD .. He doesnt know who I am, where I'm from.. but WHO CARE?? it's better for me I guess.. Why? because when something is unreachable.. is far from your hand, it will always be beautiful.. But when you got it, will you still have the same feeling toward it?Ā
People say I'm NUTS.. but it's fine.. I'm prefer being a NUT... than being a skin to be peel off.. at least.. some nuts are good for health... :)) ..Ā
READ this BLOG since beginning... Ā I know the ONE and only ONE... I'm too sleepy to do anything which makes sense.. XD
