ADAM
by Hugh Cook
“Eden is boring.
Nothing explodes.
There are no trains to fall off the tracks.
And Adam finds himself
With something missing.
Comic books? Broadband? Balsamic vinegar?
Pachinko? Razor blades? Plasma TV?
He's aware of an itch
And scratching
Has yet to be invented.
He eyes the fruit,
The One Forbidden Thing.
"Not yet," says the serpent,
Who's seen the script.
But Adam is engineered for impatience:
Quests, missions, objectives,
Grails unholy or otherwise.
"Out!" says the angel.
And Adam shrugs,
Loses the core,
Strides to the open gate.
Something on two legs
Is running after him.”

Cook, Hugh - Adam. 2003

Bahay
by: Gary Granada

Isang araw ako'y nadalaw sa bahay tambakan Labinglimang mag-anak ang duo'y
nagsiksikan Nagtitiis sa munting barung-barong na sira-sira Habang doon sa isang
mansyon halos walang nakatira
Sa init ng tabla't karton sila doo'y nakakulong Sa lilim ng yerong kalawang at mga sirang
gulong Pinagtagpi-tagping basurang pinatungan ng bato Hindi ko maintindihan bakit ang
tawag sa ganito Ay bahay
Sinulat ko ang nakita ng aking mga mata Ang kanilang kalagayan ginawan ko ng kanta
Iginuhit at isinalarawan ang naramdaman At sinangguni ko sa mga taong marami ang alam
Isang bantog na senador ang unang nilapitan ko At dalubhasang propesor ng malaking
kolehiyo Ang pinagpala sa mundo, ang dyaryo at ang pulpito Lahat sila'y nagkasundo na
ang tawag sa ganito Ay bahay
Maghapo't magdamag silang kakayod, kakahig Pagdaka'y tutukang nakaupo lang sa sahig
Sa papag na gutay-gutay, pipiliting hihimlay Di hamak na mainam pa ang pahingahan ng
mga patay
Baka naman isang araw kayo doon ay maligaw Mahipo n'yo at marinig at maamoy at
matanaw Hindi ako nangungutya, kayo na rin ang magpasya Sa palagay ninyo kaya, ito sa
mata ng Maylikha Ay bahay
