Haiku (traduzione di Antonio Blunda)
by the ruins
the long silence of
a broken bell
dai ruderi
il lungo silenzio di
una campana rotta
...
morning mist
a string of diamonds
on a spider's web
nebbia del mattino
una stringa di diamanti
su una tela di ragno
...
window with a view
the misty glass door
hides her nakedness
finestra con vista
la porta a vetri appannati
nasconde la sua nudità

A Tribute Poem to Jaime P. Lucas

sinmabi iran singa onos

ono pasnuk na manamalsan si Ama-Gaolay?

Haiku at NaHaiWriMo

children flying kites
and paper planes

old tarsier
slow now with his leaves
and tango years

sunset
Buddha's third eye
before he sleeps

after the rumba
and the chachacha
mardi gras!

evening sky
no asterisks or smiley

Italian translation of my poem Adamhood. Grazie Ute Margaret Saine and Antonio Blunda ;-p
L’ESSERE ADAMO
i.
all’inizio
IO SONO tutto
parola e yoni
è un canto
uni-versale-
una voce
un nome
IO SONO uno
con me (stesso)
la genesi
(è) una notte
un vuoto e
il niente
ii.
Ho pronunciato
il mio prenome
e sono
divenuto ciò che
IO SONO
un mondo
di me stesso
il mio nome
senza parole
(atomi
della mia esistenza)
IO SONO divenuto
luce – il primo
Cristo
iii.
luminosità
coronandome la testa
divinità dentro
divinità fuori
primigenito della
mente
partenogenita
IO SONO vita
–forza incarnata
fattore
fachiro
e soprattutto
(uomo) poeta
iv.
la mia voce
ha sposato l’oscurità (l’essere oscuro)
& l’abisso
la frutta
di questo incesto
è il caos
fuori dal quale
la luce primordiale
è nata
dalla mia fronte (testa)
ho respirato formando
el firmamento
in rotazione cosmica
sono nati i cieli
scatenate le poesie
v.
rimasi
completamente
incompleto
sulla terra
dove IO SONO
è IO SONO
Dio adirato
rompe
l’inferno
fuori da me
pigliando
un osso
o due
la mia costola
è rotta
rotta &
Eva della costola rotta
è apparsa più colomba
di Lilith
il mio essere Adamo
è completo
vi.
trino
con il monello di Dio
vide Gesù
l’angelo ancorato
mentre mangiavo
l’Ultima Cena
il mio peccato originale
la Parola
sulla lingua
sulle labbra
il suo sangue
il migliore pasto
che ho mai mangiato
fin ad ora
non è da meravigliare
che l’Altruista
abbia proibito
il frutto della
conoscenza
vii.
il serpente
trionfante
a est
dell’orto
lì è una porta
con il segno
USCITA
Eva
e me
siamo andati via
coprendo la nostra
femminilità/virilità & umanità
dai colori
della rovina
(Traduzione Ute Margaret Saine)

UBBOG Journal to be Launched in Baguio City
The Ubbog Cordillera Young Writers, Inc. will launch its first Ubbog Journal on February 19, Saturday, at 6 p.m. at Mt. Cloud Bookshop in Casa Vallejo, Baguio City. Ubbog Journal is a collection of a short story and poems in Kankanaey, Ibaloi, Ilocano, Ifugao, Filipino and English, by twenty authors from Ubbog. Dubbed by members of the group as an anthology that springs from moments of deluge and drought, the book is hand-made in traditional book-binding and with a cloth cover.
Ubbog was founded in April 2007 by the fellows in the 2007 Cordillera Creative Writing Workshop (joint-project of the University of the Philippines Baguio and the National Commission for Culture and the Arts). The book launch is part of the activities of the Axis Art Project to celebrate the Philippine Arts Fest in Baguio.

Rekindled: Riacceso - Traduzione di Renzo Piovesan e Ute Margaret Saine
Riacceso
la canzone del riso-saltellante suona stasera
da qualche parte non troppo lontano la luna del cacciatore
...bagna in tutta la sua gloria incancellabile
la primordiale danza del raduno
dove i mietitori offrono ciò che seminarono
alla dea della terra e del raccolto
io sento il loro silenzioso recitare e cantare
l'ultimo dei Tumatagaumen
con la sua preghiera rozza dischiudere
le ritmiche gilavolte - l'accelerazione
li vedo tutta carne scintillante e indossata
prima che la brace consumi il suo respiro
mi hanno toccato non lievemente col ricordo
questo rito pagano questa passione primordiale
ma la voce del bardo dentro del mio esistere
la canzone del riso-saltellante suona stasera
da qualche parte non troppo lontano la luna mietitrice
abbraccerà il mio essere Adamo sorgente
sentiranno urlare le mie poesie di caccia
(Traduzione di Renzo Piovesan e Ute Margaret Saine)
Rekindled
there’s a rice-pounding song tonight playing
somewhere not too distant the hunter’s moon
bathe in all her glory unconcealing
the primeval dance of the gathering
where the reapers offer what they have sown
to the goddess of the earth and planting
i hear their silent chanting and singing
the last of the Tumatagaumen
with his uncouth orison commencing
the rhythmic gyrations - the quickening
i see them all glistening flesh and worn
ere the embers consumed its own breathing
they touched me not softly with rememb’ring
this pagan ritual this primal passion
but the bardic voice within my being
there’s a rice-pounding song tonight playing
somewhere not too distant the reaper’s moon
will embrace my adamhood arising
they will hear me scream my poems of hunting

Sonnet to a Pilgrim Soul : ДУША ПАЛОМНИКА
ДУША ПАЛОМНИКА
Сантьяго Б. Вильяфаниа
Когда утром появится золото солнца
И глубокая темнота благородно отступает,
Воздух наполнится музыкой света
Тебе никогда не почувствовать ее ритма.
Когда утро расправит свои теплые в золоте крылья
А алмазное небо безмолвно в глубине
Смотрит вот там и наслаждается с твоими глазами предметами,
Которые ты просто видишь в своем дремотном сне.
Что-то не сочувствую тебе несчастный влюбленный паломник
Если мир в душе в смиренном состоянии.
Время придет, когда их глаза затуманятся
И они тоже разделят ту же самую участь.
Пустая раковина рассыпится в пыль
Когда наши солнечные дни уйдут в прошлое.
Translated by Gennady Novoselcev, Russia

morning star
a peeping tom
on my window
---
friends and lovers
all poetry and wine
my life at forty
Black Nazarene
a tug-of-war between
sinners and saints
---
barefoot on foot
in the slow procession of
the Black Nazarene
---
scent of apples
no not the trees
but the story
---
child of the quick hands
a fruit stand
an apple less
---
thunderstorm...
an empty school bus
on the roadside

evening rain...
a homeless angel cradled
