ang buhay ko: handcuffs and bruised wrists

handcuffs and bruised wrists

words scored on the walls
echoing restless tapping fingers
unable to capture the trickle of blood

if so
what about those flickering lights
briefly distinguished silhouettes

if so
what about those bread crumbs
that entice birds from their flight

if so
what about those stacks of papers
obscuring sunrises and sunsets

handcuffs and bruised wrists
hands tucked in bulging pockets
letters yellowing in bottom drawers

black and white photographs
blank eyes and passive smiles
what are they even smiling for?

The Five Factor Personality Test

Your EQ is 113

50 or less: Thanks for answering honestly. Now get yourself a shrink, quick! 51-70: When it comes to understanding human emotions, you'd have better luck understanding Chinese. 71-90: You've got more emotional intelligence than the average frat boy. Barely. 91-110: You're average. It's easy to predict how you'll react to things. But anyone could have guessed that. 111-130: You usually have it going on emotionally, but roadblocks tend to land you on your butt. 131-150: You are remarkable when it comes to relating with others. Only the biggest losers get under your skin. 150+: Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar.
