edge, west-north Turtle Island
ears opened to songs of Killer Whale
heart's pulse in sync with flap of Raven
eyes opened to dance of Salmon
so i traced, tracked- back
towards song of Buwaya
towards flap of Pawikan
towards dance of Maya
edge, west-south shell
mga anito, stars guiding
mga Maykapal, smiling
rejoicing, once mourning
Sky, Kaptan
Sea, Maguayan
slivers carried, silvers shining
shattered, Lisuga, made one
