PEN 50th Anniversary Edition Featuring 82 poems by 29 of the Philippine's best young poets in English. By subtitling this collection "An Anthology of Philippine Post colonial Poetry, " this is precisely what I wish to editorially endorse, what I wish the prospective reader (local or trans local) to remember, what I intend to announce at the outset: these poems, like the rest of Philippine literature in English, will in fact be largely incomprehensible when decontextualized from the histories that engendered them - particularly, the violent histories of colonization that the Philippines, as a geopolitical and indeed national reality, has endured.
