Aside from this blog, I have launched a separate blog that shall contain my attempts in Kapampangan writing and other forms of literary production.
The title of the blog is Kulang King Yumu. In English, that can be translated as Not Sweet Enough.
The title is inspired by my belief that the young ones ignore the Kapampangan language--their Amanung Sisuan (language from which one suckled)--because it has failed to ride with the times, in topic, in form, and in diversity.
This, if left as it is, will be hazardous to the perpetuation of the Kapampangan language, aside from the false nationalistic ideologies that preserve the inferiority of Kapampangan.
Here is a sample of my poetry.
Ket Na Ning Asu
Dona, alang balu
King yatu, king yatu
Meniglo king asu
King banyu, king banyu
Dona, sasakildap
Sulilap sulilap
Kilub na ning ulap
Bala na paninap
Dona, pakasáya
Kitnan ing indu na
Nung nanu’ng ikit na
King banyu ra keta
Dona, miglarawan
King asulilapan
Lalawit palalam
Tatalakad misan
Dona, abalu na
Ing abatiawan na
Ngana ning indu na
Siguru asu ya
Dona, mitutundu
Migkera king kuartu
Linub ya ing asu
Kinet ne king salu
Dona, pakakera
E makasiwala
Mituluanan wawa
Ala neng agawa
Dona, pangayabak
E man minyukle buak
Lupang mengawakwak
Salbag salbag utak
Dona, míkabalu
King yatu, king yatu
Keplasan ya kanu
King ket na ning asu

Nice blog. I like the pic (keni's). Pampanga is my neighboring province and I frequently visit the place just to take pics. Have a nice day.
