A lodge of smoke,
to make me choke;
From heated stone
Poured water on.
A cold rub helps,
but my heart yelps:

In for a Steam
Lantana
When I passed by this shrub and asked what it is, I was told it’s a kanding-kanding. I passed by it the second time and a different person said it’s an iring-iring. =D.
Stranger’s Dog
Call on a Dog,
just like a hog.
It wags it’s Tail

Looks to my eye,
as though I’m Sly—
Am I Friend?
And not a Fiend?

Lights dimmed, music—
some acoustic…
Then the masseuse coughs!
Tingling powder,
Smell of camphor…
Then the masseuse sniffs!
‘ these presages?
The massages
from tie-erred hands—
Hands though in heat,

Two rounds, down the lower floors

Just when a few people inside a jeepney exclaimed “ayyy!!”
I asked “what happened?”
“That kid—was trying to grab my hat” said the wearer who was quick enough to move away.
“Kid?”
I looked out the open window and there, the kid was—mischievous. shameless and acted like nothing happened. Questions ran in my mind: Are hats that hot items? Are they easier to sell? Is snatching hats part of a training towards snatching jewelry later? Is the kid on his own? Is an adult behind this?
