Embracing the world with positive creativity since Sept 2007.
It’s embarrassing to share an early poem, but I’d like to share it anyway. This poem was like a suicide note, I wrote it shortly before I left my vocation to the priesthood in 1992. The imageries in this poem happened in real life. How my mother, for instance, grieved over the death of my youngest brother, and how I grieved over their tragic and untimely deaths (all my family members) respectively back home in Mindanao. Instead of being angry or bitter about life, I transformed my despair and sorrow into forms and colors on my canvas (and other aesthetic mediums). Tragedy compels me to create art!

Comment by Author-Poet Aberjhani on February 8, 2012 at 10:00pm Thank you friend Danny for this courageous sharing. Tragedy may have served as the catalyst that caused you adopt art as a formidable tool but I will state with some boldness that it is your love for humanity and hope to help others learn from your suffering, in order to avoid whatever they might of a similar nature, that leads you to continue creating it. My gratitude for always digging so deeply and sharing the golden essence of your being to help enrich the lives of others.
Peace,
Aberjhani
