Mark Angeles' THREESOME

I haven't bought any books lately but this month I will hah! Why? One of my favorite Pinoy poet, Mark Angeles is releasing his third chapbook of poems entitled "Threesome" and I'm quite phsyched and excited to read and be inspired by his new collections of poem.

For those who don't know Mark Angeles, here's a short description posted in panitikan.com.ph:

Mark Angeles is known for his cyber moniker Makoy Dakuykoy. He graduated with a BA Journalism from the Polytechnic University of the Philippines-Sta.Mesa, Manila. A year after teaching in grade school, he went back to organizing campus writers and was elected vice president for Luzon of the College Editors Guild of the Philippines.


In 2006, he attended the IYAS and Iligan National Writers Workshop. He won awards from the Palanca, Haruki Murakami Essay Writing Contest (by The Japan Foundation, Manila), and the Lampara Books Children’s Story Writing Contest.

PANTASYA

May panitikan ang pagmamahal sa maligno.
Kung saan nailalarawan ang kaibuturan ng puso
Na walang sino mang nagtangkang gawin.

Mapagaaralan ng kahit-sino -- galunggong man o kuwago
Ngunit wala sa silid-aklatan ang totoo
at tunay na paraan ng pagsuyo.
