@tulatoonz Kahit kinakailangan, hindi pa ring maiwasang mangambang lumagda sa waiver kung sasailalim sa operasyon ang isang minamahal. Ang pangambang ito ang tinalakay ni Ronel sa kanyang diyona, isang tulang may 3 taludtod at 7 pantig bawat taludtod. Ang diyonang “Waiver” ay nagwagi sa timpalak na “Tula Tayo” ng Komisyon ng Wikang Filipino noong 2023. Si Ronel Osias ay guro at manunulat mula sa Rizal. Miyembro siya ng Linangan sa Imahen, Retorika at Anyo (LIRA) at Midnight Collective. poetry tula animation Filipino Philippines
