on the neighbors’ air con
In Asia, space is not wasted. On the residential air con units one might find freshly harvested vegetables, furniture and storage, flowers and plants, and live animals presumedly kept as pets or for planned consumption.

I’m Not A Gamblin’ Man, But
maybe there’s no reasoning
to anything
somehow
maybe you are wondering
’bout everything
right now
but you
don’t need to run to the light just yet
i bet that you can do
what’s right and true
you just don’t know it’s you
maybe it could not be worse
an endless curse
and why?
maybe you are done with this
and want a kiss
goodbye
but you
don’t need to run to the light just yet
i bet that you will be
what you dream to see
i see that much in you
even though
you feel like there’s no
reason for you to
go on like this
i must say
every single day
you’d be someone
i would miss
down and done
you have fought, not won
watching doors close like you’re
life’s doormat
you must know
you’re remarkable
and maybe you’ve just
forgotten that
maybe it’s impossible,
improbable–
at best!
maybe there is nothing else
and this is not
a test
but you
must know on you i would place my bet
and without doubt i would
bet all i could
’cause i believe in you
Once
we were best friends for as long as we both can remember
never ashamed for the fun or the trouble we were
we always were at our best when we never said never
i’d tell you everything
gone are the days when we couldn’t stop laughing
gone are the days when we would not speak
somehow we’d both make each other better
i want us together
once again
mothers and fathers make us in their image as we grow
what they can be is something only wisdom will know
i have grown into my own and i teach them forgiveness
you did all you could do
gone are the days when you could not be there
gone are the days when you’d show me how
here’s to your hand in making our story
a happier ending
once again
i don’t know if i’d have done it differently
’cause things are often easier to say than be
i have loved and i’ve lost and i’ve cost some plenty too
with what we say and do as we try or not, it is still true
you
are a part of who i am
and
i am grateful
once again
years ago i said, “i do” want to always be with you
i had no clue as to what would be “better or worse”
have i forgotten the tears and the trials that we knew
or was there something else
gone are the days when we’d get through it somehow
gone are the days when we would slam doors
although i’d know what i agree to now
i’d rather be with you
once
again
i’d love to have you here
once
again
but i know i will see you
once
again
Middle
in the middle of the road i found a way
and how
wouldn’t you too
if i could tell the world my heart would sing right now
in the middle of the road we find a way
to know
in the middle of the road I found my way
to go
like so many others do
in the land of old and new
so many glorious years ago i stepped out of myself
made a decision to be anything but just like someone else
with an open mind i’d not say no and trusted like a fool
with an open heart i’d go go go and make somethin’ pretty cool
like so many of us do
in this land of old and new
not too late
not too soon
none too lazy
not too left
not too right
none too crazy
in the middle of the road i found my way
and how
having been through
the moment when she’d answer “when?” with the words, “right now”
and the middle of the world will make her own way
you know
to know
and the middle of the world will make her own way
to go
like no one can ever do
if it’s old or if it’s new
so many golden years ago i chose a path I own
made a decision to change the world but little have i known
with an open heart i’d make true friends as loyal as can be
with an open mind i’d make amends and finally start to see
what so many of us do
in the land of old and new
not too light
not too dark
none too lazy
not too warm
not too cold
none to crazy
not too high
not too low
none too lazy
not too this
not too that
none too crazy
not too you
not too me
none too lazy
not too then
not too now
none too crazy
not too you
not too me
none too lazy
