Roblesque (To Al Robles with Love)
¡Silencio! Al Robles is missing
It’s way too quiet around here these days & we miss him
This one of a kind poetic daredevil
Manong Al of the International Nipa Hut Hotel
Oy! Manong!... is that you?
Al Robles
This Carabao has gone home to the village
Come to me, my melancholy baby
Baguio Ifugao winds that blew away
YOUR POETRY breathing words
INTO SMITHEREENS OF CARABAO DUNG
The White Sand Beaches of Market Street
White Sand Beaches of Market Street
By Tony Robles
A manong I’d met a
While back but whose
Name I couldn’t remember
Recently approached me on
Market Street
Say Al--Is that you?
Say Al--is that you?
Someone's sprinklin' water & rose petals
on the baby buddha's birthday
& another millennium has passed
Say Al--is that you?
