SALAAM MATS, PAOLO MANALO


Mail del dia is the chap E IS FOR EPAL from Paolo Manalo of Jolography fame. I expected to laugh, and I did, at his fabulous wordplay... but when his brief collection must include a poem like “Annus Horribilis,” it just shows the direness of the current regime. The poet doesn’t turn eyes away, forcing humor to come harder and harder.
