The second brother came home,
as the other siblings did,
without a wife
rather with a beloved
sister
in his mind-
her sweet smile
and the gentleness of her gestures
incomparable from the other women he met.
This affection
if only he was warned
to put love aside
from brotherly care
would’ve saved them
from such a predictable strife.
For in the guise of foreseen obligation
when he knew of her intention
of not wanting to marry
sprung the idea
to be the one to love her instead. (More …)
She wakes me, then she vanishes.
But the scent of a thousand other flowers
seems to harmonize to annoy me
as it lingers in the four walls of this room.
Batid kong hirap ka sa kinatatayuan mo
ngayon kaibigang kasoy.
Oo nga’t madilaw at mukha kang matamis
kapag hinog
bakit pagkatao mo’y nasa kinalahati? (More …)
I was
the seed of desire.
A hateful boon
among life’s choices
I had no right to decide.
a Curse
conceived by Nanay’s cold blood
wrapping my face
in a tight embrace
as she squeezed me out
with pure disgust.
Buto ni Kasoy
pinagkaitan ng tadhana
nangarap na makalabas
sa lungga
ninais na makita ang mundong ibabaw. (More …)
The sound of bells
and silent chatter
from each side of the isle
and white petals that spread on
the crimson stretch
Behold:
A fairytale of maharlikas and
village maids. (More …)
