All Our Nameable Days All Our Nameable Days: Poems Revisited is a selection from the poet’s works through eight published collections since Fugitive Emphasis (1973) to Care of Light (2010), except Poems and Parables (his first selection, reprinted in 2002) and In Ordinary Time (2004). It consists of fiftyfour poems; an Introduction which clarifies his project of poetic “re-visioning”; relevant Notes on a number of the poems there; and at the end, an essay on his own poetics, “Imaginary Gardens with Real Toads,” a potential resource in creative writing courses. Gémino H. Abad is an award-winning poet and Professor Emeritus at the UP Diliman.
