To Do What Has to be Done

This has become a roller coaster ride/Even a child-like attitude cannot cherish/The heart bleeds and the mind crashes/If there is a moment one wants to erase from memory/This must be it.

How not Uncommon this Mockery of Justice

Because you allegedly fought with government soldiers in an encounter/Where one of them died/
In a place you have never been to/
And with the kind of fragile physique and considerable age
A New Beginning Turned Sour to Sweet

It hit me then as it hit me now/Deceit envelope those filing charges/For they have nothing by way of evidence and witnesses

Pahayag ni Ka Daning sa Araw ni Gat Andres Bonifacio

Papalagan

Di naman kaya natatakot ang Pangulo,/Na maungkat din ang paggasta ng pondo,/Saan ginagamit at hingan ng resibo,/Sa gayon mabatid kung ginamit ng wasto?
