The 16th sonnet added to my 2nd book of Pangasinan poetry entitled Malagilion.



inmasingger so sakey ya ogaw

ed saray soldadon mamubunog

na danum tan arum nin kakanen

dingay say ateng oala’d pangaoan



ag la nalikna’y laman so petang

tan ag met la makadngel so layag

ed kasil na bonban onsasabog

dia ed loob tan paoay na Baghdad



asalug na linget dala tan lua

so gendat a tataoage’y Persia

alioan say nanuley no ag ta

lapu'd say andeket a balitok



telek tan emel so dyus no bakal

natemek man so moski ed dasal




In the News: BOOK WORM

Four years after British author Iris Murdoch's death, her husband is selling the working library of nearly 1,000 books she collected and annotated over six decades. John Bayley doesn't have room for the books at his house in Oxford, England, now that he's remarried, said Rachel Lee, whose Rachel Lee Rare Books will hawk the collection.



Murdoch's collection ranges from philosophy and psychology to poetry and theology and includes such personal items as bookmarks with pressed flowers, bus tickets, and handwritten notes.



Bayley's memoir about Murdoch's decline from Alzheimer's disease was the basis of the 2001 film "Iris,'' starring Judi Dench and Kate Winslet in the title role. Jim Broadbent won a supporting-actor Oscar for portraying Bayley.
