Pandesal

by bryan-amerila

Or,  The Poor Man's Bread Three pieces Of pandesal to begin a day. Where’s the salt in here? I ask. Then came three beads of sweat Trailing my face after a walk On three streets: Valero, Leviste and Dela Costa. I climb on the 9th Floor, Of Liberty Centre Building, To make salt.
