Pagkain ng Hinog na Mangga


Kurutin mo ang tulis na dulo
At hubaran ang palibot nito
Pero huwag mong balatan ng tuwiran
‘Yung tama lang para mayroon kang makagat
Lasapin mo ang lahat ng nakalantad na laman
Piho, may aagos na katas, agapan mo
Kasi baka tumulo sa kamay mo
Ang pinakamahusay nga’y dilaan mo na ito
Sumige ka lang, kahit na puro katas
Ang nguso mo’t baba – masarap naman
At kapag nangalahati ka na hubaran mong
Dahan-dahan ang natitira’t kagatin
Mula sa itaas, mula sa tagiliran
Sa pagkatas nito, kahit na pahalik ka’t pasipsip na
Hindi maiiwasang may tutulo sa mga daliri mo
Pero huwag mong bitiwan
Huwag mong pakadiin
Kasi hindi masarap ang lamog o ang malapirot na
Ipitin mo sa mga labi ang basang buhok
Sipsipin mong pahagod hanggang maubos ang katas
Tapos hubaran mo na ng tuluyan
Baliktarin mo’t kagatin mula sa ilalim
Banayad, hanggang sa may malambot sa dila himurin hanggang buto.

Bentedos Rapsa: Mi Familia

I. Coming together is a beginning Nov. 28, 2016. It all started on that day. 28 people attended the first day of our training. Everything is new. New faces. New set of people. New place. New job. The usual happened--introduction and everything. But, 28 did not remain as 28. Some people did not come in anymore. Others were dismissed. It happens, yes, but if you were a part of a family, you would care. II. Keeping together is a progress There are just things that are really beyond our control and we respect that. However, despite what happened, we tried our best to build stronger foundation to solidify our family. You know what is the good thing about having a family? It is the sense of belongingness. We do things together. We eat together. We give love and we share both our sad and happy moments. We tell each other our life stories. We celebrate life despite knowing that any time soon we will be deployed to different teams. We help each other in times of difficulty. We a...
