Summary: Pinabli and Other Poems consists of over 200 anlongs (poems), some of these poems in English translated into Spanish, a few haikus and translations of poems by writers who had inspired him like Jose Garcia Villa and e.e. cummings. Most deal with love, which he describes in a language full of imagery and lyricism. Many believe that the Pangasinan language would have died if it weren’t for the efforts of Villafania and his colleagues who with great dedication worked against all odds to ensure revival of the language after the long hiatus for Pangasinan literature that lasted for 30 years (1960-90).
