Malinong Ro Palibot

Huni eang it suksok rang mabatian
Makaraya man baea kalinong
Ring pini-ino kon owa ako
Sa euyo mo
Ag ugsad?

Ligum Dueom

ligum dueom--
ginsiad it kilat
ro agi't ugsad

shotgun love

the gun looks at you
as I ask
“do you love me?”

the gun answered me
as you said “I’ll
never do.”

Operating Room

Operating Room--
suddenly
it turns midnight

"guavity"

like Juan Tamad,
I look at her
as a guava
hoping she'd fall.

y ≠ mx + b

a poet creates lines
by weaving words
how can a mathematician
make one
by just two dots?

Eati

eati--
ginkutoe ni Siony
ro sukoe nga gumamila

new moon--
Siony cuts off
a gumamila bud
