Feel like releasing your poetic juices, but can't seem to find the strength to lift a pen? Then why not just text it?
The National Commission for Culture and Arts (NCCA) Committee on Literary Arts for the National Arts (yes, that's quite a a mouthful) is inviting rabid texters to join their TEXTSAWIKAIN contest.
You have until February 28 to compose a two-line poem or proverb about the environment. Send it to 09279245243 or 09279245242.
Some winning posts from the past:
Walang matimtimang lupa,
Kung ang punoy salaula.
-Roger Endaya, Maynila
Alkansya ang kalikasan,
Pamana sa kabataan.
-Joel Costa Malabanan
Ang ilog na basurahan,
Parang buhay na pinaslang.
-Arnulfo Sambajon, Taytay Rizal
Think you can do just as well? Think you can do even better? Then contact Eva or Rose at the UP Institute for Creative Writing at 9221830 for more details!
