This research is a psychoanalytic criticism of President Diosdado Macapagal’s Kapampangan poems, aiming at unleashing the poetry’s new way of reading them to highlight the beauty and creativity of poetry in a literary criticism through the psychoanalysis of the personas, literary characters, author, and other literary elements. This literary research employed the psychoanalytic theory by Sigmund Freud as its primary theoretical framework. As a literary research, it utilized content analysis to determine the existence of themes or concepts within the words, lines, and stanzas in the poems relative to Freud’s theory. One of the findings of this research is that the personas exhibit the dominance of id personality as mostly associated with sexual symbolisms whereas the personas’ repressed desires are about sex, romance, intimacy, and other sexual activities. Furthermore, the author’s biography has a little influence in some of the literary elements including the poems’ settings. Meanwhile, a proposed framework in the teaching of poetry is presented in this study which may serve as a guide for the teachers of literature to teach poetry considering the 4 S’s essential elements of poetry: Sense, Sound, Structure, and Symbolism.
