Pagluwas


Island
PBR Summer Outing 2006,
Eagle Point, Batangas
IIsa ang lunti, sa matang nakadungaw
sa gilid ng barko,
sa bihis ng pakwang hinog,
at sa murang kawayang tinabas
sa takdang tigas ng buho.

Sa pagdidilim naman,
hindi mapagsino ang mga bituin
sa dami ng kislap, sa tulis at talim
ng alon, taas-baba, waring hinahasa—
sa liwanag ng nag-iisang buwan.

Habang tumutulak ang barkong punyal
sa mundong hinog na, sa paghahati
lumulusong lamang tayo,
inaakalang nailagda ang sugat
sa balat ng dagat.

Sa muling paglingon sa tinalunton,
madulas na umaagos sa ating talim
ang napag-iisa pa ring dagat
walang galos, pumayapa—
banayad sa pagtaas, pagbaba.

    EXPECT NOTHING
    Alice Walker
    Expect nothing. Live frugally
    On surprise.
    become a stranger
    To need of pity
    Or, if compassion be freely
    Given out
    Take only enough
    Stop short of urge to plead
    Then purge away the need.
    Wish for nothing larger
    Than your own small heart
    Or greater than a star;
    Tame wild disappointment
    With caress unmoved and cold
    Make of it a parka
    For your soul.
    Discover the reason why
    So tiny human midget
    Exists at all
    So scared unwise
    But expect nothing. Live frugally
    On surprise.
    WE ARE THE WORLD
