It really felt like a hundred days had pass before Gloria Macapagal Arroyo was finally transferred from the St. Luke's Medical Center (SLMC) to the Veterans Memorial Medical Center (VMMC). I've said a lot already from my previous blog post "A Very Taxing Transfer to the VMMC" , but because of the significant impact of that day to my life where I was totally glued to the news the whole day (even online reading the tweets of the journalists that I was following), I was inspired to write this poem spontaneously, without looking back to edit, in just a few seconds (just for the fun of it). I'm satisfied with the results.
100 Days To Transfer
The long excruciating wait for many
Media, onlookers, and those watching on TV
Everyone thought it was gonna take forever again
Nakakainis na talaga itong si maarteng Len
Ayaw nilang lumipad sa PNP helicopter
dahil masama daw ang strong rainy weather
Di pwedeng sa chopper dahil wala raw sa usapan
Dapat by road lang lalo ngayong umuulan
Nababalisa na raw ang amo niyang unano
Kanina pa raw naghihintay sa kaniyang taga-sundo
Ihatid na raw sila agad-agad sa VMMC
Gusto na nilang lisanin ang SLMC
Mag-taxi na lang daw sila para di ma-delay
Nine hours na raw kasi waiting forever and a day
Sabi naman ni Robredo, "Di yan ang ating pinag-usapan, sinungaling kayo!"
Hirit naman ni Valte, "Akala ko ba may death threat ang inyong amo?"
Buti na lang natuloy din ang kanilang pag-transfer
Sakay silang lahat ng isang malaking coaster
Mga nanonood sa TV ay natuwa at nagpalakpakan
Biyahe mula EDSA hanggang North Avenue ay sinubaybayan
Natapos na naman ang isang kapana-panabik na drama
Sa buhay ng ating magiting na kontrabida na si Gloria
Pero pustahan, malamang, sigurado kinabukasan
May panibago na naman silang kahilingan
Huwag na kasi nating patulan ang sangkatutak nilang reklamo
Di matigil-tigil na pagpuna at pekeng pakitang-tao
Asahan na lang natin na sana'y magtagumpay tayo
Makuha ang hustisyang pangako ni Noynoy Aquino.

ReplyDeleteLittle Boy Blue, Come Blow your Horn
The sheep's in the meadow, the cow's in the corn
Where's the little boy that looks after the sheep?
He's under the haystack fast asleep
Will you wake him? No, not I
For if I do, he will sure to cry...
that's the original version..
oplan Put the Little Girl to Sleep was patterned after this nursery rhyme courtesy of the fertile mind of Ate Len....
hahaha...instead of a little boy, we have a little girl instead....
