Freedom to Verse
I am free,
My verse is free!
I verse –
whatever
whenever
however.
I versify –
my joys,
hurts,
thoughts,
and my angst.
I versify my dreams.
I versify my soul.
I turn to verse when,
and if I want.
And I verse away from meter…
away from rhyme.
For to verse is a freedom!
It can neither be chained…
nor boxed.
It can’t be buried in the grave of standards.

About HARDPEN
Teacher-Writer
Hardpen is my nom de plume.
My real name is Massuline Antonio Dupaya Ligaya.
Many times I was asked the question, "Why do you write?"
I don't write for rewards nor adulation. When I write poems, stories, and essays, when I do research, seeing them completed gives me immense joy and satisfaction. I don't write for cash incentives, "likes," and "praises." I would be thankful if I'll have them but the happiness and sense of fulfillment I feel when completing my works are my real rewards.
Is teaching difficult? No!
When I teach, I don't work but I play. The classroom is my playground, the students are my playmates, and the subject is our toy.
Proud to be me!
Proud to be a FILIPINO!
TO GOD BE THE GLORY!
