    “BALAKI KO ‘DAY SAMTANG GASAKAY TA’G HABALHABAL”


    By: Adonis G. Durado

    Balaki Ko Day Samtang Gasakay Ta ug Habalhabal portrays a typical scene in the provinces; a
    habal-habl ride. The speaker of the poem asks his passenger to recite him a poem while they ride the
    motorcycle and to cling on to him closer so he can feel her heartbeat more clearly against his back. His
    desire for her to cling to him tightly can be seen as a display of affection and strong desire towards his
    passenger.
    The poetry also has a sensual tone to it. This sexual tone can be seen all throughout the poem,
    which can be understood as a forplay in sex, especially the in the use of metaphorical language from the
    14th to the 16th lines, as well as its last six lines, which can be referred to as the ejaculation. “Habl-habal”
    id derived from the Cebuano word “habal” which refers to animals copulating. The poem also uses the
    figure of speech such as onomatopoeia, simile, personification, and metaphor.
    The person who is talking in the poem is the habal-habal driver.
    The lesson or values that could get in the poem is that aside from experiencing the beauty of the
    poem by enjoying the imagery, symbolism, and figures of speech in the text, we can also pick up a very
    important lesson in the poem. That is, to always be careful when riding a habal-habal because the
    imaginationsof the driver can go as far as being sexual.
