Malagilion: Soniton Pangasinan is finally getting into shape. This is the 51st sonnet and I am still working on some pages. I intend to complete the book with 55 poems but I might come out with a few more works until the last week of September 2003. After this I am going back to writing poems in English or perhaps I might write a book of Pangasinan haiku or short poems. Yup, I am probably the first Pangasinense who penned a haiku or tanka in Pangasinan language :)
agay la'y abig tonian kabuasan
abangonan ko'y sibong na anuyiao
ya mankugkugtot ed dorongaoan
tan manim-imis so balatabat
kaluskus na liman onkikimey
sagitsit na kaoali'd dalikan
tareren na pinablin katupag
alay dakep a sonatan denglen
no ompatey ak ed sayan ora
ay palabas yo pa ni Kataoan
ta labay kon nalikna so bilay
ya anggapo'y guna tan segsegang
anggan sakey ak labat ya duka
ag ko isalat 'yan agew aya
