karong hapon na


ikaligo nako
ang alisngaw sa kahaponon
aron manimaho kong adlaw
singot pan-os aslom
nga mao'y alimyon
sa akong pagkabata

    Hey, Judge!

    Lahi ra gyod na sila. Mas dramatic ang "Karong hapon na" kay implicit ang paglabay sa panahon. The "na" has a sense of inevitability and acceptance to it. "Karong hapona" is just stating a temporality which "Karong hapon na" also suggests with more implication of something passing and irretrievable. In other words, it has more nuance.
