Kay Ganahan Kang Ma-Cool

Nagbinugoy ka
Nanigarilyo
Nag-inom
Nag-ganja
Nag-uban-uban ka
Nila nga abi nimo’g cool
Nila nga tig-rambol
Nila sad nga tig-syagit sa kalsada
Nagpalayo ka
Paingon sa lugar nga cool para nimo
Paingon sa kalinaw
Paingon sa paraiso
Nagpaka-artist ka
Suwat-suwat
Sayaw-sayaw
Kanta-kanta pa jud
Nagpakalahi ka
Lahi nga hilig
Lahi nga gusto
Lahi nga love
Tuod
Lahi na ka
Lain na ka
Pero wa jud gihapon ka ma-cool
Di jud gihapon ka ma-cool

[I've Been Recently Reading]
On The Road by Jack Kerouac

This book makes me want to pack up and just go. Somewhere. Elsewhere.
I want to drive around the Philippines. Take a ro-ro from Jagna to Camiguin. Then to CDO down to Iligan and Marawi . Then Zamboanga. Perhaps cross Basilan, Sulu and Tawi-tawi. Back to mainland Mindanao. To Cotabato. Davao. Bukidnon. Agusan. Surigao. (All of Mindanao) And then proceeding to Leyte and Samar (even Biliran). Up towards Bicolandia. (All of Bicolandia). Then to Southern Tagalog to Central Luzon. Sweeping towards the northernmost of Luzon towards Batanes. And then back making sure to pass by each province in Luzon Island before moving on to Palawan then to Mindoro to Panay then Negros and Siquijor then Cebu and back to Bohol.
One day I just might.
