“Bukas ng alas nuwebe, sabi ng isang duwende: ‘Buksan ang iyong mata, talasan ang tainga.’ Mayroong hiwagang bumabalot sa patikim na paparating — Hindi mo pa natutuklasan, at maaaring hindi inaasahan. Wag kalimutang bigkasing ang mga katagang: ‘Tabi-tabi po,'” the poem reads.
Trese will premiere on Netflix on June 11, 2021.
