Piper lolot
Piper lolot (lolot) is a flowering vine in the family Piperaceae, cultivated for its leaf which is used in Lao and Vietnamese cuisine as a flavoring wrap for grilling meats, namely the thịt bò nướng lá lốt sausages of Vietnam. It is also known as lolot pepper.
In Vietnamese it is called lá lốt (or sometimes in the South lá lốp).. In Khmer, it is called japloo ចាព្លូ (or jeeploo ជីរភ្លូ), in Thai chaphloo ชะพลู, in Lao phak ee lert ຜັກອີ່ເລີດ (or phak nang lert ຜັກນາງເລີດ).
The practice of wrapping meat in vine leaves originated in the Middle East, which was taken to India by the Persians. It was subsequently introduced by the Indians to Southeast Asia. However, grape vines do not grow well in tropical climates, so the Vietnamese started to use leaves of lolot instead. It is native to the Indochinese region and recently introduced to the United States by Lao and Vietnamese emigrants. It is also used for medicinal purposes, to relieve a wide range of symptoms from inflammation to snakebites.

Unwill
by: LilituI've tried to find myself, but I can't
To find some peace of mind or what's left
Life seems so meaningless
Sometimes, I just want to give in
As the sorrow calls my name
She comforts me and leaves the scar of pain
And tells me everything will be alright
But I know damn well, that's a lie
Take this day
No different than the others
But I know I cannot stay
Far and away
I'll try not to remember
Still, I remember everything
I am Unwilling, I am unable
I see no hope at all
With all I've given
I can not carry on
Is this forever?
A foul endeavor
Or a veil which I've disclosed
I taste of tragedy and divine
Sweet pathetic comedy
And in time you'll get the best of me
And my mind but it's so insignificant
Will things get better?
In pieces, shattered
Within the lonely corners that the shadows know
It's now or never
No need for reverence
I've paid my debts in full
Things will not get better
I am in pieces, shattered
Slipping into the darkest corner of my mind
Just let me go
Escape from reality
Please don't remember me
