By Rio Alma (National Artist for Literature), also known as Virgilio S. Almario
Translated by Marne L. Kilates

Rio Alma's latest collection of poems incorporates the poet's rare intuitive understanding of relevant issues with the use of native Tagalog forms, styles and motifs. But the employment of ancient or native poetic forms may also translate what is "being Filipino" into more fully human terms. For Rio Alma, problematizing Philippine culture and society is simultaneously aesthetic, ethical and pedagogical.
