Where the word complete is a couple,

fingers hooked on each other;

where science can be manipulated

not to contradict romance: Love

is exclusive territory. Where

magnets and opposite poles

Don’t go anywhere.

Faces will flood your head.

Fluid beads shooting around

as aperitif. Pressing hands with each other

through greasy outlines of prints.

by Edgar B. Maranan

A train is a time machine

eating the land slowly, receding

from the dark station in old Caloocan

to a whistle stop in quiet Damortis

where the surf brings in a long silence

from Lingayen Bay, from the China Sea.

Kaibigan,

So it came to pass

That standing, here, alone

Within this cluttered compass

Of steel and sweat and voice

Has left you with little choice

But the long trek from home.
