Panalangin
O Diyos, Magligtas.
O Diyos, Haring Ama, alisin ang sumpa
Panginoong Diyos, alisin ang demonyong nanahan sa aming tahanan
O Diyos, takpan ang aming tainga sa kasamaan
O Diyos, magprotekta Kayo sa amin
O Diyos, manahan sa Inyong dugo
O Diyos, linisin ang aming puso
O Diyos, pasiglahin ang aming puso
O Diyos, Kayo ang kailangan namin...
O Diyos, ang oras sa piling Niyo ay higit na masaya at malinamnam sa puso.
O Diyos, ikakanta namin ang Inyong Puso
Banal na Puso ng Diyos, iligtas kami.
O Diyos, alisin ang aming pangamba
O Diyos, lagyan ng inyong presensya ang aming bahay at bahay-bahayan
O Diyos, manahan kayo sa puso namin
O Diyos, ikakanta namin ang inyong kadakilaan sa mga manggagawa
O San Jose Manggagawa, kami'y nananawagan sa inyo.
Panibagong pananaw, Panginoon, Kayo'y kailangan namin.
Panginoon, kailangan Ka namin.
Panginoon, talinghaga, sino ba ang Inyong manggagawa?
Umaga hanggang hapo'y nagdurusa
Panginoon, tulad ng matibay na kalabaw, sila'y nagdadala
Nagdadala ng kanilang pamilya
Panginoon, sa pamilya'y sila'y kapos sa kwarta
Magic wallet, kung mayroon man, sa isang iglap ay mapasakanila
Kailan pa, Panginoon, ang susunod na pagpapakawala ng pera?
Panginoon, laman ng bulsa, kami'y naubusan at lalo'y di nag-iisa.
Panginoon, kailan pa?
Kailan pa nagsara ang kalangitan?
Panginoon, ngayo'y naghihintay.
Bantay, gabi at umaga
Alamin ang talinghaga.
Panginoon, sabihin Niyo sa amin ang Inyong loob.
Magsilbi, ngunit lamang magnilay sa isang tabi.
Panginoon, panatag na isip, tunay na mahalaga tulad ng ihip ng hangin.
Panginoon, pakinggan ang sa aming puso'y panalangin.
Amen.

A quiet midnight.
Hola, amigas. I've just come from my typing job and I've gotten around a bit of a fiver right now. Yes, it's not much...but I'm getting the feeling that I'm on to something moderately BIG. Not as big as my Dad's salary, but I'm excited for new tingz(TM). Tingz az in dose very beautiful cold hard cute stuff like journaling supplies and new books.
I'm currently living the small town life right now. I want to live in our own locale and just do anything I want. I want to:
- Eat at the Corazon's diner
- Eat sisig at the other diner across the subdivision
- Take a stroll near the church. Draw and write in a notepad.
- Drink instant coffee from the sari-sari store across the street.
- Eat instant noodles from that sari-sari store...
- Walk as far as I can in the Greenheights area and discover perhaps a store I've never seen before.
- Go to mass at Our Lady of the Abandoned.
- Buy shoes at Puregold.
Things I plan on buying weekly:
- Twinings tea
- Caramel Great Taste
- 4 thrift books
- A sketchpad, colored pencils, crayons, graphite pencils
- A cute, small notebook
I think I want a newspaper (Philippine Star) and some magazines.

A poem about Typhoon Yolanda
As featured in Poetry Magazine.
the ghosts of sea salt corpses
wander barangay Calogcog
do not stop to pick up strangers of barnacle flesh
soaking from the sea that drowned them
their skin blistered and fish-scale gray
ghost breath heavy
as the mountain of cadavers
we buried in this traffic triangle
the lolo pedicab driver shakes
when his midnight passengers disappear
leaving only a pool of saltwater on his tricycle seat
the smell of gutted fish stalking him home
seaweed arms crawling up his sprinting legs
beneath moonlight, their wrinkled fingers
comb the rice fields flooded in salt
skip through brown hills of dried tigbao grass
climb decapitated coconut trees
and sing to the families they left behind
their gasping voices pierce
like heavy rains into zinc roofs—
where else did you think our spirits would float?
in our town
every corner is a white cross memorial
and we are still finding bodies
skeletons trapped beneath debris
demanding proper burial
in San Jose, a family hears baby boy crying
buligi ako! help me, mama
the singing rains in his voice
stalk them sleepless
until seventh night
find a four- or five-year-old body wedged beneath septic tank
wrapped in the mosquito net he slept in
before storm surge swallowed his morning bedroom
or what about the 56 children of barangay Santa Cruz
their legs strangled by thick roots of water lilies
floating in the river, nine-year-old limbs
trapped in the crumbling of their own elementary school
at night, their spirits dance in the splashing sabang
laughter sweet as the stems of santan nectar
listen, to the 5th grade tsismosas gossip
chanting to the rhythm of jump rope—
tong tong tong tong,
pakitong-kitong alimango sa dagat
malaki at masarap mahirap hulihin
sapagkat naangangagat
mama teaches me
iday, do not fear these Yolanda spirits
speak to them, like you speak to your lola
ask them to watch over your brother back home
ask them to calm the winds
beg them, to keep our islands above ocean
until heavy rains and gusts of wind
no longer smell sour like decaying bodies
these spirits sing a warning—
an dagat gugutomon la gihap
the sea that feeds us
will one day grow hungry
again.
After Merlie M. Alunan
