Paglalakad sa Montreal

This poem was written by Lance Gough during our workshop Creative Writing, Public Speaking, and Performance

Naglalakad ako sa mga kalye ng lungsod

Hindi ako tumitingin sa iba pang tao Mag-áakalá yata ang mga babae na nanonood ako sa kanila Mag-áakalá yata ang mga lalaki na gusto kong makipag-away sa kanila Sa wakas, tumítíngalá ako, sa mga tao Ayos! Walang sinuman ay tumitingin naman sa akin

Nagsasalita sila sa mga smart phone nila Tumitingin din sila sa mga relo nila Nanonood din sila sa bangketa sa ilalim ng paa. Pero, walang sinuman ay tumitingin sa iba pang tao. Iniisip lang silang lahat sa sariling buhay nila.

Translation Walking in Montréal

I’m walking on the city streets Not looking at anyone else. Women might think I’m looking at them! Men might think I want to fight! But finally, I look up at the people Wow! No one is looking back at me.

They’re talking on their smart phones, They're also looking at their watches, They’re also watching the sidewalk under foot. But, nobody is looking at anyone else. They’re all only thinking of their own lives.
