A FIRST: A FRENCH TRANSLATION!


I'm pleased to share my first poem translated into French. Fanny Garin's translation of "PilipinZ" is featured in On peut se permettre put out in Belgium.  I'm grateful, and here it is:

“PilipinZ" seems to be a popular poem—it’s the first one of my poems to be quoted in a novel, Reine Arcache Melvin’s wonderful The Betrayed which I recommend.

You can see the English poem online (earlier version) as the last poem in the Moria Locofo chap Pilipinx accessible through HERE
