TULA (POETRY)
In Excelsis Deo
BY MILA D. AGUILAR
Posted by Bulatlat
This woman's playing chess
Without a tear.
After eating up all the pawns
She's now targeting bishops
From the rear.
No storm, it seems,
Can stay her
Rather deadly,
Definitely
Ungodly career.
Why don't the people
Arise, you ask.
So many lives wasted,
So much blood left out
In the sun to bask
Like dried meat seeking
Salt to stop the reeking.
Let me tell you one thing,
Dear, it's not a simple,
Easy task.
You have been asked
To pray.
You have refused
On the excuse
Of forging broader fronts.
There is no way
This front can come together
Of its own accord.
If you'll but see the greater power
This woman will not stay
Another hour.
