Body Talk

(Sherilyn)
As I cruised gaily along the tempered path
welcoming the sweet smell of summer flowers
flowed in like elder flower champagne 
My consciousness is telling me that I'm not alone. 

The heavy boot marks trailing
spin fantasies in my dreamy head
Both: Ten steps to the crossroads, I was delightfully greeted
by a tall (pause to look at Sashi then look back at audience), not so tall, dark and handsome lad. 

Both: Ten steps to the crossroads, I was delightfully greeted
(pause)

(Sashi)
By a tall, slender, sassy lass

In a split second, the left masculine machinery took over,
Scanning target sir !
Target is healthy sir!
Target’s vertical altitude, surpass current capacity sir!
Horizontally is target within capacity? Privet?
Sir! Yes! Sir! Soldiers waiting to fire sir!
Roger! Proceed to explore terrain ….. my mind fired
I was blown away, when a gust of wind parted her hair to reveal her face
From analytic to intuitive my mind raced

She was of fair skin with husk of gold
With sweats of pearl on her face, she seemed like a flower in the morning dew
Her arms were like garlands, where my neck was the perfect fit.
Her gentle steps seems like a dance to the song of the evening mood.
As she came closer, I felt like ascending into heaven
For she was a Goddess, Aphrodite in sweat pants

Both: Ten steps to the crossroads, I was delightfully greeted
(pause)

(Sherilyn)
The echoing gestures emitting from my body
can be categorize into 3:
I like him, I love him and I want *middle finger*him 
There ain't no, physical, doubt about it
There ain't no, philosophical, doubt about it
(bites lower lip)
Petrified by the impending wanton pandemonium. 

Both: At the crossroads, I was delightfully greeted
(pause)

(Sashi)
I mustered my macho steps and broke the silence
 “Hi” (high-pitched voice)

(Sherilyn)
I took ten steps back (then walk off from stage)
  
(Sashi)
What the fuck was I thinking?
“Was there a unicorn in my mouth?” (high-pitched voice)
Hey, wait up! (addressing to Sherilyn) 
No time to say "thanks" guys! (addressing to the audience)

Humans

(Sherilyn)
Humans, 
We wear the oddest outfits
We don on the strangest tops
We slip on varieties of synthetics
Checked shirt, striped blouse

Ripped jeans, bursting at the seams.

Humans, 
We wrap ourselves, often at the wrong places
Too tight, that one can hardly breathe
Too tight, that one requires a rescue mission
If harnessing skin tight clothes is your fear
Then you're kissing the wrong fear goodbye.

Women,
We worry about the volume of our hair
We worry about not having deeper 'longkang'
Keeping Triumph abreast to conquer our insecurities.

Women,
We worry about the length of our eyelashes
We worry about what kind of mascara to put on
Age REALLY does not define the length of skirts
Our minds are cleaner than a man's, cause we change it more often.

Men, 
You... worry about... nothing.

(Sashi)
We worry about nothing?
Lady, We sow the seeds for everything!

Men,
We worry about the size of our ‘batang’
We worry about not being on time and ‘cummin’ early
Boxers, jock strap, briefs, 
We worry about salah parking
When the fly's open, we worry about our brother out looking
We worry about our beer belly (taps belly)
We worry about the hair that's not growing on our head, but sprouting at other regions

Every day, man wake up and looks at the mirror and asks 3 important question

To shave or not to shave
To booze or not to booze 
To fornicate or not to fornicate... well we know the answer for this

Our worries have been there since the dawn of time.
Yes, your minds are clean ladies, as it's our hose that does the work!
(Sashi looks at Sherilyn and winks, Sherilyn walks off the stage)

Women,
They get you all excited and leave you there hanging.
Hey, come back! We haven’t finished yet. (shouting at Sherilyn)

All over again...

As we play till dusk
The crimson flame has dimmed as the logs slowly turn to ashes
I wanted to slither out of bed, making sure it was stealth
but you caught my waist and I slumped back in
we both giggled.

Your warm hands guided my body towards yours
with a gentle force, you turned me to face you
and now we are face to face
we stared into each other's eyes
you made me tingle inside.

Your musky scent lingered as I read the curvature of your smile
and it says, "Come play, my dear."
Chantilly laced and perfumed
my body aches to do it again
make me moan as my hands protest you to stop
a shiver tickles my inner thigh
flutter of fiery passion enraptured
left its brand upon my bosom
your ardent kisses bruised my lips
What transpires thereafter
only you and I
dare to fantasize.

Fulfilled

I feel your lips brushing lightly on my face
Whispering sweet nothings into my ear
Your warm rapid breaths matched mine
In the darkest hours,
You
Me
Here.

Your fingers sliding under my ..."mmm..", to cup my left breast
Your cold fingers twirling my coffee-coloured nipple 
"Ahh...", softly I moaned
My seemingly never ending daze, but it all made sense
Perfect, like the rising sun.

The continuous kisses you left on my skin
So gentle that they leave a mark
My neck, my breasts, my stomach, my...
My eyes shut tight, like stealing sunbeams before dawn breaks
I slayed dragons in my head.

You get in between my legs and my body shakes
Eat it up and don't let it drip
I moaned harder as you play with my love button
Time seemed to stood still when you steal gazes in between
I smiled
I shuddered
You sent me into a whirl.

You lick and you twirl and I swirled
Drowning in ecstasy
Immerse in sheer pleasure
I hope no one hears
The loud moans
From this log cabin.

The sexiness of you
Fulfills the lust of my flesh 
The beauty of your mind
Leaves me waiting the pleasures of you inside
With satisfaction, you left traces of your presence in my clouded mind.

Evolusi

Senja, aku terdengar perbualan
Perbualan penuh dengan pertanyaan
Benarkan manusia telah melalui perubahan?
Atau ada faktor lain yang perlu ditimbangkan?

Apakah maknanya evolusi?
Siapakah yang layak menerangkan?
Sejak bilakah kita menjadi manusia sangsi?
Perkara yang kecil didendamkan.

Tercatit di dalam buku biologi
Kehidupan bermula daripada microorganisma
Perlukah manusia menulis eulogi?
Bagi mengingati 'halophiles', methanogens' dan 'amoeba'.

Wujudnya kehidupan berasaskan pelbagai ideologi
Mana satu yang benar dan mana satu yang salah?
Keputusan terletak di tangan sendiri
Haruslah berfikir tanpa membawa padah.

Jikalau benar kita masyarakat bertamadun
Bukankah kita harus berfikir sebelum bertindak?
