- ‘Poetry Dark by .4. R. M. I want to live. But others more fit to live have died. Worthless-l, so, wait the visit of my Maker. I seek for my function, meantime. What am I here for. Or am 1 here? Am-here should signify work-done. Here I stand in a darkened corner. A Case of Sightlessness by EPI NACO DENSING, JR. Lost in a wild of darkness, The seeming dungeon doom, We grasp for safety, escape; Feverishly cry: Light! Light! Light! And are frightened by the panicky Flying of winged creatures. Let’s be still! And remake the dawn. Have we not been Ransomed? Dream Vision by ISRAEL Q. DORONIO HEAVEN shower. . . . shower.... a million stardusts, in silver, in gold waltzing, dazzling, in open space, till they fall. . . softly fall on beds of lilies, and roses, and lovely flowers. Tempus Fugit by ISAI3EL0 DE LOS SANTOS Night black, brief, be dilatory or extinct, or stay where you are now and forever, for your arrival always means a day’s departure. See what destructions you’ve done: rose fallen, ugly woman, faded picture, ambition reached but lost. Before, they used to be so sweet so pretty so clear, so high Loneliness by A. IL A MORES loneliness is petals floating rotten in a vase proving the sharp reality of parting, the sporadic sorties of silence probing the length and breadth of time and space for answers to the why’s and how’s, it is the gnawing hunger for your return, for the solace in your perfumed hair, for your soft fingers. Students by RENATO M. RANCES They run after knowledge, they are power conscious. They, like ants, file off in the corridors, making cha-chas with their shoes. Where’s it? In the book, in the professor’s heart. Also in the leaf falling, flower blooming, ocean murmuring, etc. Knowledge, know. JULY-AUGUST, 1959 Pa g e 13
