What is Biblia? The sacred repository of the Word?
What is the Biblia of the North? It is a magazine that contains comics, novels, fiction, poetry, columns, pictures as big as the heads of the "chosen ones", the "Kings" of Iluko Literature, who let their own kinds of readers decide for themselves what kind of writing should be published in the "Biblia." O, let those "intellectual essays, poems, fiction" be thrown to the dust bin even as we sit on them, especially those of that stupid idiot from Caba, La Union.
What or where is the realm of these "Kings"?
A cubicle located somewhere in a Bulletin building Manila. Their men? At least ten, most of whom has been feeding on the royal table for decades, who take turns manning the ramparts, looking for stray writings of their enemies.
See? Their realm is small, as small as their small minds. Writers?
What did Epictetus say about a person in any profession or craft? No matter how brilliant you are in your craft, you are nothing if you are dishonest, without integrity, or something to that effect.
