IN THE BEDROOM OF THE MIND



She lies there on her side
snoring softly
a smile
                           
on her red lips
in the bedroom
of the mind

she is the Callaguip girl
with snow on
her hair
sitting under an apple
tree

like the sun goddess presiding
over neo-spirits in the brown hills
of Menifee.
Bed in one of the rooms in Malacanang of the North, Paoay, Ilocos Norte, Philippines

THE FALLEN 44

O scion of Getulio,* did you not declare boldly that the Philippne Army was sleeping with the enemy? That's treason!

The army general, who was with the President in Zamboanga at the time (January 25) the Muslim





guerillas were slaughtering the elite commandos, had no answer then. But he explained that they did not give assistance because there was no urgency of your message. It appears that you merely told the general that the troopers had an counter with the combined forces of the Moro Islamic Liberation Forces and their attack dogs, the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Forces in a village of Mamasapano, Maguindanao .

The special forces had gone to the place where the Malaysian international terrorist Zulfikir Bin Hir  alias Marwan  had been hiding all these years in the MILF-controlled territory. Also object of the operation was local terrorist Abdul Basit Usman, who escaped.

Marwan, an expert bomb maker had sired children from  different Muslim women.

In the Senate hearing, Senator Peter Allan Cayetano was asking a general if the army was protecting the Moro Islamic Liberation Front whose forces killed 44 members of the PNP Special
Forces.


*Gen. Getulio Pascua Napenas, Jr., the sacked commander of the Philippine National Police Forces that killed the Malaysian international terrorist Marwan in a dawn raid at his hideout in the village. His house is located, sources said, a few meters away from the house of a high MILF official. Napenas, a native of Luna, La Union, in Northern Philippines, was one of the resource persons in the Senate hearing.

The Poem the Expression of the Poet's Emotion?

Is his or her poem the expression of the emotion or disappointment of the poet on the subject?
When an investigative journalist writes about a politician's unexplained wealth is he attacking the person?
😳😝😃


Roman Jacobson, Modern Russian Poetry:
To incriminate the poet with ideas and feelings is just as absurd as the behavior of the medieval public that beat up the actor who played Judas.
