from her womb

Bio sketch
Ernesto P. Santiago enjoys exploring the poetic myth of his senses, and has recently become interested in the study of haiku and its related forms. He lives with his wife Nitz in Athens, Greece. He is Filipino.
Emotionally speaking, "first sunrise" and "unexpected journey" form a dialectical relationship that gives the reader a picture different from that of the new year's baby portrayed in the media
