alienating some of you eh?

i just got an email from a friend. no, i'd rather not mention who he is. he said he regularly visits this blogsite and soon enough got hooked to it (well good for you!). anyway, at the end of his email he asked me what the fuck is it that i want to do with this blogsite.

at first, he thought that the blog was all about funny stories, one-liners, and wise-cracks. then he went on reading the other entries and was a bit alienated when he started reading poetry. and he expressed his concern that some readers may be alienated as well because of my recent indulgence in posting poems.

shit!!! hahahahaha!!!! you just made my day man!!!!

nice one... really... i appreciate that. it's been a while since i got that kind of response from people who have read my so-called poetry. it's nothing special really, and if you just carefully read between the lines, they're all actually stupid. a lot of them, if not all of them, can pass either as a funny story, a one-liner, or a wise-crack.

yeah, indeed it's been a while since i got that response. you want to know why? of course you do. well, if you don't, do you have a choice? i'm going to explain it anyway... so hush. the last poem i've ever written was "junkie," which i posted on this blogsite last september. i wrote it three and a half years ago. you can read it if you scroll down.. way down there. just don't get "alienated" after reading it hahahaha!!!! what a word!.. while the poem "gitara," posted last september 20, was written about six years ago, back in 1998 when i was still in a band. no, it was not a marching band.

anyway, after i wrote "junkie,"... well, let me see, how can i explain this... somehow after that poem, i sort of lost it. well... let's just say... i sort of lost myself.

then during the last couple of months, something happened to me... after a long sabbatical, my poetry came back. and i welcomed it with open arms like how the father in that bible story i knew a couple of decades back welcomed his prodigal son ... and i also found myself again... i hope. so that's that. how did it happen? well, in the words of another friend, who i'd rather not mention the name, "dunnoh.."

so, to my valued readers and critics, i suggest you first read this blog's label before consumption. if you just look up there where the paningit brand name is written, yes at the header, directly below it is the label /warning that says: a blah blah blah blogsite. i think it's pretty self explanatory.

hahaha.. "alienated".. what a load of baloney.. hahaha.

i'm out.
