It's been a month now and still no replies from Manila Times and Sunday Inquirer Magazine about my submissions. I assume my poems are already junked . Oh me! So, how do you get your works published here in the Philippines? First, you can ask the Palanca Award winners or those who have been a participant in a writing workshop in UP, UST or Silliman. If you can't get any response from them, that's the time to contact the so-called elite in the Philippine literary circle. You're lucky if you ever get a word or two from them but that won't assure a space either for your writings in their publications. iliw agaylay samit a dengelen so tula na tagsibol no say angob daray rosas milmilad siplog na dagem no say linaew natipon ed dakulap daray dika tan diad kapan-usbong iran tanaman agaylay samit a dengelen so cansion na tagsibol kulaan mo la balet inaro? pialagar kan unsabi pian napunas la komon iyay bakat na amatanir lan tiaguew ed sayay nan-ermen kon mata abayag lan maka...

Another revision of my early poems. Do not find any continuity of thought in the poem, each verse is independent of the rest. broken quatrains 1.) i shall not be a dust of saint i shall not need Zion's glory on papyrus my self to paint i shall be one godly poetry 2.) strange voyage into the unknown circles of imagination ensures a man a crown a throne and a kingdom of illusion 3.) i'll lay on the meads of poetry on the hebeus hill by the lea there i'll search the skies' symmetry there i'll cross the cerulean sea 4.) O Bathala! can't you not hear the song of your child on this hill each note is piercing like a speak into the heart that is unstill 5.) you whose beauty with pride display the finest flow'r fades in the air you're naught when your time steals away you're naught but mere dust in the air 6.) i have searched the sky and the sea but haplessly i failed i died no loves true when i ceased to be and worst heaven my self denied

Re-uploaded the old desktop wallpapers I created: Doveglion (a tribute to my favorite Filipino poet, Jose Garcia Villa), Draco (a metaphor), and The Book . Feel free to downlad and use them. Once upon a time, I was once a community leader (CL) & co-liaison in an on-line community called Geocities Paris . My site was then named Poesie d'Orient . Well, those were the days when Geocities was a cool community :-p

Just browsing the NCCA Features (August issue) first thing this morning and a feature by Lissa Gene Mata entitled Reaching Critical Mass: The UP Likhaan Creative Writing Center really caught my attention. It would be a dream come true for me if I find myself one day in one of those UP Writing Workshops. I'll keep on dreaming . . . I know too well how hard it is for a writer to get into the UP workshops >:-p Yet another poem in Pangasinan language. I really hope to come out with a collection of verses written in my native tongue. Publish it into a book probably next year though I'm not sure if there's going to be a publisher who'd be interested to put it in print.

I had an uneasy feeling while on the bus this morning. A part of me wants to get out of my shell to explore a world beyond my daily realities. Before I reached the office, I had this line on my mind: The animal kingdom is the eyes of a collective mind and each kind has its own realities. It's just a thought that came out of my restless faculty. Anyway, there seems to be a problem with Y!Geocities mail form script. In the meantime, feel free to send me your literary news by email.

I found this post while browsing the following URL : Balon Silew (Babasaen Daray Pangasinanse) is a Journal publish quarterly by the ULUPAN NA PANSIANSYA'Y SALITAN PANGASINAN (Association for the Preservation of the Pangasinan Language). For more info, please contact Dr. Linda Rivera Andaya, Editor, Director Pangasinan State University Cultural Affairs at psu-cc1@mozcom.com I thought I'd also promote this on my site. I just emailed the editor of the said journal to inquire if they are accepting literary contributions written, of course, in Pangasinan language. I hope this publication will serve as an outlet for budding Pangasinan writers / poets like me. I am quite excited having learned that there is a publication that promotes to preserve our dying dialect. On the other hand, here's another poem in Pangasinan language / dialect: akin akin et gagaoaen ko 'ya tepet mo makapalec kuan mo say tepet ko balet akin et andi akin et maliket ka ni ya manbasay bayes ya salita?...
