SOLANA

Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago

Across the Rio Grande Cagayan from Tuguegarao’s hide
Is Solana town ‘tis home to many kins of mine

There was I and brothers brought to summer holidays
Crossing the river by ferry as bridge there was none

There we played with carabaos, sheeps, and goats
Accompanied beloved Inggo who was pastor to them
With engrossed care we bathed them wonderful pets
Feeling at one with them we are truly blessed

Immersing in livestocks I grew to love them creatures
Built empathy along as I beloved more pets

Solana now is home to ancient pedigree of man
Whose bones fit half a million years to measure

Such knowledge thus to blend with sweet memories
Of my short but lovable stays in ol’ Solana town

[Philippines, 05 December 2010]

MANILA IMPERIALISM?


Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago

Then was I a leader among teachers
In the 90s decade it came this tall task
For which called was I to make rounds
Of mentors ‘round the country to glee
That aura of mine inspires them to reveree

Then came this news conference in Bacolod
Where I was introduced as man from Manila
Then exclaimed the tv man to shame
That I am agent of Manila imperialism cold!

Shocked as I was and infuriated likewise
Did I regain control of my composure
I was a leader among teachers across the land
Not a local agent of Manila nor its fens

Yet surely there are those who build discord
From petty and asinine viewpoints they breed
Unable to see the world in larger clime
They will perish with shame and dirty slime

[Philippines, 15 November 2010]

MASCOTA


Erle Frayne D. Argonza

The day has just begun.
Here in my studio flat the air reverbs
With notes of dance music from disco fame
Preparing my psyche for the gym time waitin’.

From here I’m transported back to the 60s.
A tot I was then watching Ybanag culture
From my curious yet ignorant social focals.
There to wallow a bit as my Grandpa struts
The humble sala of our rising new home
Displaying with gusto the music of mascota
Dances with my Grandma to savor eternity
Of merriment and glowful likings for cultural spree
Of our locality we call by thee: Ybanag.

CANINE DELICACY NO MORE

Erle Frayne D. Argonza


As young a tot I was so supple and innocent
Did I copiously follow my oldies who slaughtered
Dogs for delicacy that they quaffed with liquor

Such was then tradition that withstood no perdition
For its own commission would shoot up one’s esteem
As one who can stand along with the tribes of Pinoys

And so twas my delicacy as a young man thereafter
Who’d make fallows to task and earn my keep
Excellent to quaff with brandy dog meat was
That burned one to brims of libidinal desires to consume

By late 80s my flights of fantasy for canine meat
Was scoffed by my own conscience
No more to eat a friendly pet I finally decided

Till law comes to ban the slaughter and eating
Of canine delicacy that’s now proscribed
The calling of innate wisdom has come to bear at last
For which we followed conscience in daily acts

WORLD’S TALLEST TOWER


Erle Frayne D. Argonza

I now could hardly wait for season’s ending
That the erecting theme park of Pagcor fame be done
In Pasay’s reclaimed shores tis rising in repose
To house the world’s tallest tower beyond Eiffel’s

Of children and families comin’ later to frolic and fun
Will they likewise scale the ladders of the wondrous tower
Exhilarating in panoramic sights below they’d enchant
In unforgettable beauty beholden to beatitudes

A year or two shall this great tower come to stand
Beacon of grandeur of our nation standing tall
Amid storms and stress of decades come to test
Majestic tower done as trophy to skyline fold

So let it come this wondrous tower-to-be
Up there shall I to celebrate my next birthdays
Twill be testament to our soulful majesty
To stay up there and be a grand tapestry

[Philippines, 22 October 2010]

REST THEE CARABAO

Erle Frayne D. Argonza


From childhood to young adulthood I feasted myself
With sights of carabaos at work in fields of planters

Like willful servant the carabao has been unto us
Humble Filipinos of an aegis of rustic past

Came forth new times and tractors filled the lands
Where carabaos once tread the fields till wee hours

Gradually did carabaos came to rest at last
No more to shame nor lame for slave tasks

So let it be the new mark of unfolding times
That carabaos be our true friends sit in glory

CITY FOR CHILDREN

Erle Frayne D. Argonza


If I shall have a hand in building the world anew
A city I will build and dedicate for babes & tots
Where they can frolic the day to hearts’ delight
Relish their minds with fantasies of creation
Toyland and chocolate city rolled in one
This wonderland will be a place to baptize
New babes a-born with Universe’s smile in face
Grand place to celebrate birthdays too for them
Who are growing up a bit to tot’s fanfares
Late at day shall theatres turn their lights
To them who’d desire for heroism tales
For Cinderellas & Mulans of the morrows

Yes! Let there be such a city to shine the world
Bursting tots’ laughters like happiest bards

BLESSINGS TO ALL WOMEN I’VE LOVED!

Erle Frayne D. Argonza


To all the women I’ve ever loved before
Who once were o! so near in stead
Whose countenance filled my heart’s longings
Even as I to them was an inspiring Sun
Now all of them are shadows of tales gone
Of love and pains that blend like one
I hereby share my blessings and benign carings
As one mentoring soul shares love to all
Let them walk the Path where destiny leads
And scale Nirvana’s farness till travails end
Till they fulfill at last the goddess within them
Shall they turn unto Venus-like beings of zen

FAREWELL RUSTIC PHILIPPINES!

Erle Frayne D. Argonza


Time was rustic climes covered all thy focals
As one would go around villages after villages
Towns after towns across provinces
Of a rustic rural Philippines

This once sleeping country had surely crossed
The Rubicon to prosperity
Conquering like a Dragon of east Asia
Bringing forth numerous icings to cakes
To celebrate its victories

Farmlands and fishing villages still abound
In towns and hamlets that sleep till now
Where comes our veggies, fruits, meats
Rice & delicacies, fishes & fowl
But malls, bazaars and commercial hubs
Mutate town per town and massive quanta
Idylls are a dwindling facts of life

Farewell rustic Philippines!
Thy memories shall ever linger in my memories
Alive with tapestries of adventures and learnings

MOZART YOUR DAY

Erle Frayne D. Argonza


As part of your own tools for use
To keep your aura healthy and protected
Immerse yourself in music so benign
Of Mozart and the musical masters
Instantly they do elevate your aura
By octaves higher than your normal life
There to ensure your wellness protection
Against psychic attacks from sorcerers

Keep in tune for an hour a day
Twill keep the witch doctor away
Likewise will your intelligence increase
As razor sharp your skill to analysis
Blissful too will you be in joy
For heavenly tunes in your employ

CANDLES & ANGELS

Erle Frayne D. Argonza


Candles and angels
Angels and candles
What makes them click
Like they were home
To each other?

Burning candle
Are beacon to angels
Cherubims and likes they come
For thy rescue or counsel
Should you burn candles
In flames of will and choice
From a truly yearning heart

Praying at any moment
Go ahead and burn candle
They bring you home
To your inner sacred space
Where angels do reside
At One with thee always

JESUS & LENNON: FIRST PHILOSOPHERS

Erle Frayne D. Argonza


Recalling those high school days
So zestful and slim a boy fumes thoughts
Like they were coming out of my cells

Immersed my mental body was
In the thought streams
Of Christ and Lennon
One to bridge with the Divine
The other to link with humanity

They who thought me sublime imagining
Of love and compassion for all
Creations of the Almighty
Will live forever within me

ARROGANCE & HUBRIS WON’T PAY

Erle Frayne D. Argonza


The ego surely has every way
To ambush your psyche
Like bandits waiting to waylay thee
It comes with thunderbolts
Of thoughts so dark and gloom
They’d make you depart
From your sublime humanity

Such as to make you wallow
In dirty cesspools
Of arrogance and hubris
Large may the pool be
Yet dirty is it as ever

Arrogance and hubris won’t ever
Pay enough and won’t reward thee
Save but to sink thee
Deeper in murky waters of evils
Such darkness will come back
Upon thee when most unexpected
Like a boomerang gleefully flying
To return to its own thrower

STAR WARS ARE REAL

Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago


In John’s Revelation book he narrated
Of an evil Dragon who dragged with it
One third of the stars or so

‘Tis no other than the Draco Empire cited
Alongside Orion and dense aliens warred
Against the Forces of Light past eons ago
Over four (4) grand cycles came to past

‘Twas the same wars fought passionately
By Lucifer and Michael and their minions
Celestial powers did take side in it
Like today’s world powers side in wars
Fought by potentates and client-states

‘Twas told too in Greek mythology
With Perseus the Pleadian fighting passionately
Versus Karkens or Draco’s might
That invaded Andromeda in antiquity

They were the epical star wars then
Their wars assured will ensue again
As Draco-Orion Forces now prepare
One last stand they fight in despair
Prepare too for the narratives they beget
The tales you tell grandchildren o’ tomorrows

MEGALOMANIA IN EDIFICES

Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago


With childlike wonderment
Jaws drop down to the ground
I often exude with innocence
And colossal enchantment
Upon sights of huge edifices
Laced with marvelous architecture

They overwhelm the Renaissance’s art
With genius and grandeur displayed
O’ creative wiz straight from Higher Space
Culling esthetics from invisible spheres

But now I begin to feel weary
Over so many megalithic edifices
Behind the surface I see
Megalomaniacs driven
By greed and powerlust

Madness could masquerade indeed
Akin to an enthused participant
Of Bacolod’s mascara festival

ANGELS

Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago


Interviewed by a searching student
On first hour o’ the day
After a storm had passed
Queried she if angels exist
Or that I believe in angels

To which I quipped with certainty
“A matter of fact and not belief
Angels are” with nary an eyelash batted
Love Beings they are
Whose Presence cleanse and balance
The Earth’s dirtied aura
A whole domain of life they inhabit
In abodes of exquisite architecture
They too help each one of us
As an Inner Guide and sentinel

Connected they are
To the Cosmic Heart of the Mother
They are the Heart’s benign resonators

May they grown and prosper too
And experience the abundance
Of the universe

TYPHOON’S A GREAT BARBER!

Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago


A great barber it is
This powerful typhoon
Of wrathful cyclonic winds

It trims down twigs
Branches and leaves
Of many trees along
Its determined path

Nay it does the work
Of thousdands of barbers altogether
Felling trees a-plenty
Done with frenzied liberty

Such felled branches
Are instantly offered
For pick up by poor folks
Who’s been gifted with
Firewoods for free
Selling them as wares
‘Tis their sublime free lunch

FIRST TYPHOON


Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago


Rains fell ceaselessly the day
Before it arrived. Almost without
Warning its gusty winds slammed
Upon my apartment studio like huge
Tennis racket walloping windows
Walls, streets, trees and all.

‘Tis my first taste
Of mighty Typhon’s wrath
Here where it passeth: my new home
Walloping winds before night fall
Gone before breakfast time.

Electricity and water a-non
Pathetic state I was consigned to.
I could have invited majestic Typhon
To an engaging coffee chat
Over coffee, egg and toasts.

MACQUILING’S CALL

Erle Frayne D. Argonza


The calling
To do sublime tasks in Macquiling
Could have been gladly whispered
Thousands of times before
Via winds of heraldries
Upon my enthused ears

Though seemingly muffled
By time spent
In the Big City
The calling reached me back
Till I heard past my lips
I recall betwixt my veins
Beyond doubt I obtain

No more to entrust to oblivion
To the charge of chores I came
