Capitulation
I've resisted the intrusion
of technology into my life —
more than some,
not as much as others,
but this morning,
getting out of my car
while juggling a cellphone,
a digital camera
and a new, stiletto car key,
as another, dead cellphone
bulged against my pocket
and my laptop weighed me down
in the bag hanging
from my shoulder,
I realized that I've lost.

Things I Have Lost
During my life I've lost many things...
I've lost my teddy bear
I've lost my blanket
I've lost my bottle and binkie
---------
I've lost my homework
I've lost my backpack
I've lost my books and glasses
---------
I've lost my keys
I've lost my cellphone
I've lost my wallet and my credit card
---------
But with all the things I've lost,
I've NEVER lost a person like you
and don't plan on it any time soon.

Everytime I Go Out Of The House
always i check
if i have
my cellphone in my
front shirt
pocket
my pen and my
small white
stationery
something to
write
just in case a new
idea comes
along
neat and clean
and ready always
for an
emergency
all the days of my life
i think my life should be that way
except perhaps
the unhappy ending

Noon at Ngayon
N'ong aming panahon,19kopong-kopong
Wala pang computer, wala pa ring cellphone
Noon baduy kami kumpara sa ngayon
At napag-iwanan ng sibilisasyon
Pag mero'ng bagong chix sa 'min na napadpad
Sa gabi ay aming hinaharana agad
Iyon ang aming modus para makilala
Ang nababago't (pag) magandang dalaga
Ang napapansin ko'y iba sila ngayon
Pag merong bagong chix, ang agad na tanong
Meron ka bang email o kaya ay cellphone
Ng facebook, twitter o landline na telephone
Noon ang binata kapag nakahawak
Ng litrato ng chix ay galak na galak
Lalo na't sa likod ay may dedication
Ng chix na subject ng kanilang atension
Dedikasyong baduy, dedikasyong korni
Sa 'min ay may dating, kinikilig kami
Bilang halimbawa, sampol ay narine
'Remember M, Remember E
Put them together, Remember ME'
Narito pa'ng isa, at meron pa pala
'Sa ganda ay wala, sa alaala ay sagana'
To make the story short, sa madaling sabi
Sa litrato ng chix ay excited kami
At sa aming wallet, laging palamuti
Ang eksenang gano'n, di na makikita
Dahil ang situation ngayon na ay iba
Litrato ngayon ay sampu isang pera
Dahil sa digital, at cellphone camera
Ganoon din ang panyolito ni Juliet
Ng pilyong so Romeo'y laging inuumit
Ito ay lucky charm ng isang binata
Lalo na't si Juliet ay love na love niya nga
Panyolitong laging kipit-kipit noon
Wala't, tissue paper ang pumalit ngayon
Pamunas na lang ng kilikili't sipon

When mornings come 'round
And my cellphone can't be found
I'm lost with no clone.

Morning Message From Love
woke up in a tired body
after an endless night it did precede
exhausted by all homework and books
all the subjects, all the materials I took
nothing was left, but me
laying and so much in weary
i tried to sit on bedside hardly
though it could be done effortlessly
dark was this room indeed
here there was none but me
alone, but there were two friends
the cellphone and the nightstand
still half conscious i sighed
a deep breath inhaled i
from the window a flicker of light
and was inhaled by my eyes
the cellphone alarmed noisily
that a message was sent to me
i opened the inbox and see
what this day would bring to me
i looked and smiled at the screen
the message was displayed in
i stood opening the window
letting the sunshine flowed
a new day came to see me
why wouldn't i greet it warmly?
sun was there, love was there
with all they had to share
with me..

I pray that Miroslava’s

have a much much much...

day day day every day
this each day I pray
may your laptop arrive today...
to ease extra toil pressure
you have too much to do
and I worry worry worry...
about you too much pressure
accumulated emotional worries
seems sometimes to plague you daily...
review score manyfold
blessings of your happier life
time for Miroslava; to yourself; to be nice...

Candid Camera
Smile,
your on Candid Camera.
All in good fun, we used to say.
But times have changed,
Internet, U tube and cell phone technology
make everyone a filmmaker,
everyone a critic.
Every move you make
part of a digital footprint.
The Internet...
like an open sore when
left untreated... spreads
lies and infection easily.
Old fashioned common sense
and good judgment
not included.
The World looks on,
Judging,
Beware the Candid Camera.

Anansekrom
Water-lilies and springs of tulips,
Shooting images with my digital camera;
And from 'Edloman' to 'Anansekrom' with love,
But it was, surprise-surprise-surprise! ! !
I have the peace of your love in my pocket,
And in my heart is always with your muse;
But always identified as the Queen's Language,
And this global culture is all around us today.
Of your love and of your muse,
Of my mind and of my works,
But, so sweet and very attractive is your muse behind thwe camera;
And like the safe of my mind to touch you with my hands.

How Are You?
morning
is your usual sound
vibrant as the
wings of
a seagull
diving upon
a white
fish
against a blue
sea
it is evening
i sit alone on a chair at the porch
trying to
listen to
your whisper
rising into a
lively conversation
like
a crowd of three
at the
balcony
i am worried
the city has no electricity
and it is dark
you have become so far away from me
like
a vanishing
light
i need you to
make a sound
even the faintest sound
of a cellphone
in silent mode with
a matching
vibration

His Small World
a blue pen
a pair of eyeglasses
a cellphone
a remote control of the TV
a book
a writing notebook
a lap tap
and a white poodle sleeping
beside all these things
it is his small world
yet everything and everywhere are inside it
his body and soul

Letting Go
Red, orange, yellow and green
Shocking colors with glitters and sheen
Dresses, bags, shoes, hair clips and pins
Different materials, most are out of style
She got all those things when she was young.
Teddy bears so soft to hug
Paper dolls stacked on piles
Barbie dolls that are sexy and nice
Most are gifts by friends and love ones
Now they are abandoned, forgotten by someone.
I packed them, ready for others to share
Tears on my eyes, really I can’t refrain
Don’t know what I am feeling, am I sad?
Oh, these are all the stuff
That once my little girl was obsessed at.
Am I ready for another journey?
Now that my baby girl is a full grown lady
Goodbye to her old stuff…
Hello to those guys and dear pals
Now her favorites are laptop, cellphone and ipod.
To you my sweet lady, love your life
And don’t be in a hurry
Study hard so you’ll have the degree
Boys can wait, just enjoy their company
Someday you too, will walk for another journey.

You Are Always There
I am far away from you
I intended it to be
I want to travel this journey alone
I am throwing away my crutches
Arriving at the point of
no return
There is someone who wants to talk
About us
Those rainbow days
I do not like this
What I know is that
I am ready
I like to turn off myself like a conversation's
Demise
Like a cellphone without a load
A battery exhausted
But i can't
You are a scar
And will always be there

Digital imaging has untied our hands with regards to technical limitations. We no longer have to be arbiters of technology; we get to participate in the interpretation of technology into creative content.

Many people see technology as the problem behind the so-called digital divide. Others see it as the solution. Technology is neither. It must operate in conjunction with business, economic, political and social system.

Gone
She told him shed rather fix her makeup
Than try to fix whats going on
But the problem keeps on calling
Even with the cellphone gone
She told him that she believes in living
Bigger than shes living now
But her world keeps spinning backwards
And upsidedown
Dont say so long in the cellphone
Dont spend today away
Cuz today will soon be
Gone, like yesterday is gone,
Like history is
Gone, just trying to prove me wrong
And pretend like your immortal
She said he said live like no tomorrow
Every day we borrow
Brings us one step closer to the edge (infinity)
Where your treasure, wheres your hope
Forget the world and lose your soul
She pretends like she pretends like shes immortal
Dont say so long
Your not that far gone
This could be your big chance to makeup
Today till soon be
Gone, like yeterday is gone,
Like history is gone,
The world keeps spinning on,
Your going going gone,
Like sumemr break is gone,
Like saturday is gone
Just trying to prove me wrong
You pretend like your immortal your immortal
We are not infinite
We are not permanate
Nothing is immediate
Were so confident
In our accomplishments
Look at how dark it is
Gone, like frank sinatra
Like elvis and his mom
Like al pichinos cash nothing lasts in this life
My highschool dreams are gone
My childhood sweets are gone
Life is a day that doesnt last for long
Life is more than money
Time was never money
Time was never cash,
Life is still more than girls
Life is more than hundred dollar bills
And oh the town fills
Life more than fame and rock and roll and thrills
All the riches of the kings
And up in wills we got information in the information age
But do we know what life is
Outside of our conveinent lexus cages
She said he said live like no tomorrow
Every moment that we borrow
Brings us closer to the God whos not short of cash
Hey bono Im glad you asked
Life is still worth living, life is still worth living

But, when we started our product portfolio, we focused the mixed signal requirements first for image processing devices and then in audio applications , targeting our technology into the growing use of digital technology in consumer markets.

From a technical point of view, there seemed to me to be absolutely no reason why - with the existing technology - we couldn't do very high quality audio, because whereas the boom in digital graphics is ongoing, the boom in digital audio has already happened.

I Took Their Advice, Of Course
Tell me,
What is the point of chasing the same people...
Who run into the same deadends and brick walls,
With claims they have a faith that is steadfast.
'The other day I told someone,
To watch out for the oncoming traffic...
As they were walking across the street,
Talking on their cellphone.
I was told to mind my own business.'
What happened?
'They got hit by a car.'
What did you do?
'I took their advice,
Of course.
It's difficult to do sometimes.
But...
I'm learning.'

Fiction
she's lost in coma where it's beautiful.
Intoxicated from the deep sleep, deep sleep.
Do you wonder what it's like living in a permanent imagination.
Sleeping to escape reality, but you like it like that.
Guilty by design, she's nothing more than fiction.
She dreams in digital, cause it's better than nothing.
Now that control is gone. it seems unreal.
She's dreaming in digital, cause it's better than nothing
Now that control is gone. it seems unreal.
She's dreaming in digital. she dreams in digital.
And your pixel army can't save you now.
My finger is on the kill switch.
I remember i used to compose your dreams, control your dreams.
And don't be afraid to expose yourself before i shut you down.
You made some changes since the virus caught you sleeping.
Guilty by design, she's nothing more than fiction.
She dreams in digital, cause it's better than nothing.
Now that control is gone. it seems unreal.
She's dreaming in digital, cause it's better than nothing
Now that control is gone. it seems unreal.
She's dreaming in digital. she dreams in digital.
She's guilty by design. (cause it's better than nothing.)
Now that control is gone. it seems unreal.
She's dreaming in digital. (she's nothing more than fiction.)
Cause it's better than nothing. now that control is gone.
It seems unreal.
She's dreaming in digital.
