Draft: Engkanto: Burial Rituals

Flip her tail, O sacred swoon
Let her join the somber moon
Listen to our hymn and croon
Worry not, we'll follow soon

Here I come, my brilliant friend...

I attended the concert at PCCM last Saturday. Of course, I should be there, haLf man haLf eLf was on the lineup. The only frustrating experience I had that night was waiting for haLf man haLf eLf's set, which happened not until midnight already. Nevertheless, the wait was worth it. The band gave a blast performance. eLf, as usual, was in his highest spirits, performing five songs in seeming angst and bliss. Sadly, that would be the band's last performance, as eLf announced. He said that he, once again, lost interest in playing music live. He would now concentrate on finishing his novels and other books, for hopes of having these published soon. Another level of art, for sure.

The best song they played was "For Her Brilliance," which I learned was an original eLf wrote almost a decade ago.

In the meantime, I remain a follower. He's currently back in the groove at work at Riverview Health Centre. As always, his coworkers are easy to work with, the reason eh enjoys working every day.

He usually spends his days after work having fun time with his loved ones.

For now, I'm outta here. I still have to run to the dark room to develop the pictures I've taken of the concert last Saturday.

"Here I come, my brillient friend, knocking on your heart again...."

Inbetween Seasons

Saturday

I see him every day, but I've lost interest in bothering him that much. Of course, I too have my own adventures to take and problems to face. Although, I admit that I remain a diehard eLf stalker, for I still keep on tab of most of the things he does.

Days for eLf are a bit gloomy, literally...rainy days are here, pouring inbetween seasons. He would usually go out with his pink umbrella.

His life is pretty colorful these days, yet quiet and uneventful except for his once-in-a-while trek to the malls.

He decides to stop purchasing Star Wars action figures for the meantime, as well as decides to retire from the little music scene here in Winnipeg. He likes to concentrate on his being an author. He suddenly has a renewed spark in continuing his fantasy novel, Visionata Grandiosa, which he would write as a part of his Engkanto book.

Anyway, so much for that now. I have to get going, lest I may lose him once again. He's becoming more and more elusive these days. ' gotta keep a sharper eye on him.

All I know is, his band haLf man haLf eLf will be performing later tonight at a concert at the Philippine-Canadian Centre of Manitoba on Keewatin, here in Winnipeg, along with fellow Filipino bands here. I heard that he would also be the deejay for the event. Hmm, I can now imagine his playlist. ' gotta get ready my costume for later.

I'll see you there, but you will certainly not see me. As always, I will be as inconspicuous as ever. That's how stalkers are.

"You move me, give me one good reason...."
