Kahol ng isang tuta
Kumakaluskos sa sulok ang kanyang mga paa. Umaalingasaw ang kalawang ng kadena sa kaniyang leeg. Ang kanyang mga munting ungol ang gumagambala sa bawat nagdaraang anino at yabag. Katulad ng nasa isang pambatang tula, mahaba ang kaniyang buntot. Malaki ang kaniyang katawan. Siya’y masunurin at mabalbon. Bulok na sistema ang kaniyang agahan. Makasariling mga pinuno […]

Sitting on Fences
Back when I was a college freshman, I was excited with what was going to happen in the coming four years. Sadly, the University life that I expected was met with a lot of disappointments, especially with how the administration handled the students’ issues. I remember how I always compared DLSU-D to my friends’ schools […]
The system is broke, the election’s a joke, to resist is woke
“The spectacle presents itself simultaneously as society itself, as a part of society, and as a means of unification.
