Laughter

He left me
when he could
no longer stand
the laughter

that I gave him
when he begged
me not
to keep memories

alive in poems
to hurt myself
and make those
who read

sad. I laughed
when he shared
his life with me
while holding him

to make it
easier and maybe
less painful
to live on.

Laugh! I told
him, but
could not get
his attention.

Laugh! I asked
him, but
he left in
anger.

And left
before he understood
the courage
that held my laughter.

From Voices from the Underworld
a book of verses by maningning c. miclat

For those who do not know, Maningning C. Miclat was a painter and a writer. She was also a Fine Arts professor in the Far Eastern University. In 2000, the pretty 27 year old artist killed herself by jumping off a building in FEU and landing on a roof of a nearby building. She was holding a picture of a man and a bouquet of flowers.

Poets are sad people.

To Nowhere

I sail the seas
Alone in the night
Without a lamp
To guide my sight
Without a paddle
To keep me at bay
Without a companion
To wait for the day
No silver moon
To watch the skies
No friendly stars
To hear my cries
No schools of fish
To teach me how
No trace in the air
To lead me now
I may curse
oh so loud
I may rebel
oh so proud
But no one knows
Nothing cares
Only the wind blows
He alone dares.

This is by my sister, a Maningning C. Miclat lover.

Kidman dating country star, Urban
by Kate Lanahan

If you're a waifish blonde actress with an Academy Award, you'd better be dating a country music star. Renee Zellweger seems to have started a trend when she walked down the aisle recently with Kenny Chesney. Now her Cold Mountain co-star, Nicole Kidman, is cozying up to Kenny's touring partner, Keith Urban. 37-year-old Urban, who just broke up with his former supermodel girlfriend, Niki Taylor, has been spotted out on several occasions with 38-year-old Kidman. People magazine says Nicole was riding on the back of Keith's motorcycle in Woodstock, NY, last week. And they also dined together at Woodstock restaurant, Elijah's Cafe. Though Nicole's rep dismisses the idea, by insisting, "They are friends, and no, they are not dating," Nicole should have the chance to make plenty of "friendly" visits to Woodstock, since she is in New York currently filming the movie, Fur. Kidman and Urban met in January in Los Angeles at a dinner to honor Australians.

Another connection not mentioned in the article, days after Renee married Kenny, ex rocker boyfriend Jack White of The White Stripes also married supermodel Karen Elson. With Keith, he had to break up with Niki before dating Nicole.

The six degrees of Zellweger and Kidman.
