"Laughter"

I think that Maningning Miclat's poem "Laughter" is a poem of irony, it somewhat tells that her laughter is her only strength to all of her problems, it shows that all her problems was covered only through her laughter.

It makes sense that most of her problems was not been resolved, and maybe those problems are emotional problems such as family problems that cannot easily be resolve.

In the poem there is someone besides her that tells some of his experience, but she just laugh about it. It can makes sense that he is somewhat very close to maningning because of being thought about an experience of him. But even the closes friend of her left her.

therefore, I think that maningning's life is not a happy life to be acknowledge. Besides she commit suicide.

Tanaga...

ma'am, this is the first poem I created

"Canon"

A dagger plunges my heart
Leaving me in cold dark night
Inside me, a wounded knight
I played my cello, tonight

ma'am the second line "Leaving me in cold dark night" is the result of break up after that time, then he was left by the girl and that describes the 2nd line. I hope that answered the question of how they relate...^_^

by the way ma'am,

the "cannon" is the deadly weapon...and the "canon" is the one that is being played as the background song...hope you like the "canon of pachelbel", it's only a piano version but, there's a lot of version of "canon" for different instrument such as cello and violin...^_^

ABSOLUTE OBEDIENCE

The story of Estrella Alfon the "Servant Girl" for me is a realistic one, it can happens any time now.

Rosa portraits the womanhood in the society, especially those who are discriminated and abuse. Young, beautiful innocent girl who is been abuse by her mistress. I think that Estrella Alfon is a feminist writer, even though the protagonist in the story is an abuse servant, for me the story shows a protest among women discrimination through Rosa.

As I read the story the man called "Angel" is just an imagination of Rosa's hope to become free and have a better life, she use his "Angel" to hold onto her hope that her life will be different. The "Angel" shows the future that Rosa's wanted to have, and besides, Angel is a word that can be describe as a savior.

But in the ending, the "Angel" turns into "Pedro", and Pedro is just an ordinary name just like the role he portrait in the story, Pedro is not the hope nor the savior of Rosa's life but, he is just a mere cochero of his tartanilla. He is just a citizen who work for a living, and at the ending, even Pedro himself drove Rosa back to her mistress which shows that he can't do anything about her life.

I entitled this post "Absolute Obedience" because, the story shows that the life we have is already planned, even though we wanted to change our life, we will still be in the life that we used to be, we only need is to obey the one who planned our life and accept our fate. If you are born servant then die as a servant, if you are born as ruler then die as a ruler. If we try to escape our fate we will just end up in the fate we left. It's the rule of our World, It's the rule of ABSOLUTE OBEDIENCE.
