Unearthly


Dreams
Want to meet
Foretell love’s whereabouts
Meeting by chance times over
Short circuit my thoughts
A miracle romance
Moonlight


Eternal
Mother hovers
Rotating in between two
Imagining, gravitating instantly unwavering
Protecting something so perfect
Boundless freedom
Humanity


Monolith
Bright as life
Emotion emulating emulsion
Ethereal essence of a wolf’s hart
Fake and fickle façade
Darkness like death 
Absence

THE ABSOLUT WORLD

The target audience for this ABSOLUT VODKA's ad are women.
The image is claiming than in an absolut world the man carries the
burden of pregnancy.
The assumptions that the ad is making is that in the "absolut world"
women don't have to stop from enjoying absolut vodka
because the man is the one that gets pregnant.
The hook is comedy and beauty because even if she is a mother to be
she always gets to looks fabulous.
The ad is also trying to sell freedom for women.

The target audience is women and men's vanity.
The image is claiming that thanks to ABSOLUT VODKA men can be 
perfect like a machine.
The assumption that the ad is making is that in an "absolut world" 
the attractive male model is not only multitasking like a machine 
but he also gets a bonus of creativity.
The hook is vanity and coolness because even the background is 
bland and the lighting is only focus on the model as to make him 
the center of attention.
The ad is also trying to sell physical fitness.

Last Breath



 











Once I reached the surface, all I could think about was him.
I had imagine that my whole life, would've flash before my eyes.
Instead, my mind was sollely focused on his memory.
My numb body yearned for his touch, his taste, or just his sent.

Whenever I was afraid his mere thought became my shield.
It never occured to me that he wouldn't be there.
In one of the moments I would needed him the most.
In spite of  the constant repercussions for my actions, 
I was to be this time trully blamed.

Reverberating now with the sound of consequence,
I loathed the time when I could just laid back and relax.
Now those thoughts are but a mockery of my current situation. 
A current which physically represents the emotional force. Currently pressing down on me towars the bottom.

If only I was born with the gift of sight
Or I was destiny's desire of a more delirious dream.
Maybe if a had the opportunity to experience
Life as I truly felt it inside of me: If only, if only...

It seems a though the only echo that reflects
The egotistic personification and by all means
Keeps on lashing to an infinitely thick wall
That is incarcerating the “IT” to the flesh.

The easiest way out is always the most difficult.
The planning, consideration and timing
Are even worse than actually trying to control
The joke of life itself by which at that point
It becomes so clearly putrid and disgusting.

Genies always say that the act of wishing
Is worse than death because with death
One know exactly the outcome but with the wish
The analogy becomes its own universal truth.

Humans do not wish because they want
They need to want in order to wish and I say
What is the point in wishing if I don't want anymore?

In retrospect he is my need, my want, my wish
my desire to look from the inside out and not need,
Nor want, nor wish but just plainly and simply "TO BE".

MY ROLE IN MY COMMUNITY


FIRST I WAS BORN AS A SON


                                                                                                               LATER I BECAME A BROTHER
TO PASS ONTO THE NEXT  GENERATION

MY COMMUNITY MADE ME AN ACTIVIST

                                               LIFE USHERED ME AS A FRIEND



Community to the majority of people means a place however it rarely means family. The
most fundamental instance in our lives where we are presented with this conundrum is
during our birth. As the saying goes “one does not choose the family one is born to”.
However, I am happy for my birth family and I keep on building my chosen family. 
I call it “my chosen family” because as I move through the different facets of life 
I continuously build new or reinforced old bonds with different kinds of people.

Chance and luck favored me to be fist born and into my role as a son.
My parents had my sister; thus I stepped into my role as a brother.
School, work and many more ushered me into my role as a friend. 
Helping at the LGBT center helped me into my role as an activist.
All serving me to be a better role model for the next generation.

“Last time I saw you. We had just split in two. You were looking 
at me. I was looking at you. You had a way so familiar, But I 
could not recognize, Cause you had blood on your face;
had blood in my eyes. But I could swear by your expres-
sion. That the pain down in your soul. Was the same as 
the one down in mine. That’s the pain, Cuts a straight 
line. Down to the hart; We called it love. ”  
The Origin Of Love by Hedwig 
And The Angry Inch.
