ʻO ka ʻeleʻele i manaʻo ʻole ʻia ma ke ʻano he paio moʻokalaleo i kū maoli i mua, i mua o kā mākou ihu. Ma laila ʻo ia i loaʻa ai Puʻu ʻo Toni kēia puke piha piha i ka crudeness a me kēlā lyricism ʻano ʻē e hele pū me kā mākou mau contradicts hohonu ma waena o ka maikaʻi a me ka liʻiliʻi o ka ʻuhane.
He puke hoihoi a pīhoihoi hoʻi e pili ana i ka hoʻokamani, ka hoalohaloha, ka neʻe ʻana a me ke kuleana kūpono, i kākau ʻia me ka pulse maikaʻi loa e kekahi o nā mea kākau hou loa o ka ʻano ʻeleʻele ma Sepania.
Me he mea lā he Pōʻalima hoʻoilo maʻamau; kekahi o kekahi. ʻO Lourdes Ros, ka mea hoʻoponopono charismatic o kahi hale paʻi paʻi hanohano, ke hoʻomākaukau nei e kiʻi i kāna mau hoa aloha, āna i kono ai e ʻaina: ʻehā mau wahine kūleʻa i hoʻāʻo e hoʻohui i kā lākou ola ʻoihana kaulana me nā hopohopo i loaʻa mai ko lākou makahiki, kā lākou hoa, kā lākou keiki a i ʻole ka nalo ʻana o ke kūlana kaiaulu.
Akā ʻaʻole e leʻaleʻa ka hālāwai e like me kā lākou i manaʻo ai mai ka hoʻomanaʻo ʻana o kahi wahine ʻōpio a ka poʻe āpau i ʻike ai, kahi malihini e hana ana i loko o ko lākou mau home a i pepehi kanaka iā ia iho, me ka manaʻo ʻole, hoʻomaka ka makahiki e hala. Ma ka liʻiliʻi, ʻike ka ʻelima o lākou i hiki i ka make weliweli o Teresa ke lilo i mea hoʻoweliweli e wehe i kāna mau huna huna loa, kāna mau manaʻo hōʻino a me kāna mau nāwaliwali.
A ke lulu kekahi hewa hou i ko lākou ola, ʻaʻole hiki iā lākou ke hōʻole ma hope o nā pā o kā lākou waiwai nani e hūnā i kahi mea hiki ke pepehi a kū ʻole ka ʻoiaʻiʻo. No laila ke hoʻomau nei ka make ʻana o Teresa Lanza i kahi mea pohihihi ʻike ʻole ʻia.
ʻAʻole ka make ka hopena o kahi moʻolelo i nā manawa a pau; i kekahi manawa he hoʻomaka hou hoʻopilikia wale nō ia.
