Release or buildup?

The earthquake
Is making
The house shake
The house shake

The earthquake
Is making
The house shake
The house shake

I don't know
What to do
In times of
Disaster

Solid things
Go liquid
And the breath
Gets faster

I ask you
What you think
Of my forward question
Is this a
Release, or
A build up
Of pressure?


I failed my roadtest, miserably. For two days before AA took me around my neighborhood practicing right turns and left turns and pulling in, and we concluded that I had a fighting chance. But after waiting in line for three hours under a scorching hot sun, I simply lost interest. I felt groggy and just wanted to go home and didn't pay attention and forgot to signal and drove on the curb. That's right, on the curb. But the inspector was oh so nice, not entirely what I expected. I'm definitely going back there for my second test.

PS Pinadalhan ko ng maikling sulat sa pangkalawakang sapot yung kras ko kahapon kasi nag-alala ako na baka natangay ng bagyo yung bahay niya (Peksman, totoo to, andaming natangay na bubong sa nayon namin). Tiniyak ko na iisa lang yung tanong ko para isang sagot lang din siya. Pero tanong siya nang tanong. Kaya sagot ako nang sagot. Kaya ayun. Mag-uusap daw kami sa susunod na linggo tungkol sa pagmamaneho ko. Aaaaahhhhh!!!

Mirah live in Houston

Old video, but five years ago, I played Mirah's "You think it's like this but really it's like this" for three months straight.
