Pinagtitiris! Pinagpipisa! Piso bawat kuto, Salapi bawat lisâ. Nanlaban! Pinuksa!

Parang nanghihinguto lang (10w) [Just like picking and crushing head lice]
Pinagtitiris! Pinagpipisa! Piso bawat kuto, Salapi bawat lisâ. Nanlaban! Pinuksa!
Three 10-word (10w) poems [tulang sampuan], this ["Just like picking and crushing head lice"] and two others in Tagalog/Filipino - "Hindi patakaran ang pamamaslang?" and "Mga itinumbang tutubi" - are dedicated to the memory of three young men/boys (Kian, Carl Angelo and Reynaldo) and the other thousands - victims of senseless killings in the Philippines.
