Konbersyon
Nakahiling ako nin mga lawog—
dai mabilang—
na nakaturuhok
sako gikan
sa parasang salming.
Pagkatapos kaidto
igwang doros
na naglaog, hinadokan
an sakong alang na kublit,
asin pinabayle
an mga kurtina.
Conversion
I saw faces—
countless—
staring
at me from
the shattered mirror.
Then came
in a wind
blowing, kissed
my parched skin,
and made the curtains
wave a dance.
