TWO FACES OF AMERICA

AL HEROE NACIONAL/ TO THE NATIONAL HERO

BY: CECILIO APOSTOL

Filipinos don't realize that victory

is the child of struggle, that joy

blossoms from suffering, and

redemption is a product of sacrifice.

He who would love much has also much to suffer.

AL YANKEE/ TO THE YANKEE

In this poem, the

poet attacks American

Imperialism. Throughout

our country's modern

history, we have been under the

clout of the United

States of America.

In almost every aspect of our government's policy making

since our independence,

America has had a hand in it directly

or indirectly.

But there will come a time when our "puppet" country will cut its strings and start acting on it’s own from the "puppeteer" United States.

sa pasugalan. 

Isinalaysay sa “Ang

Pangginggera” ang buhay ng

babaeng napariwara

dahil sa pagkakalulong

sa sugal na “panggingge.

HINIGOP NG SUGAL

.” Ang panggingge ang ninuno ngayon ng

tong-its, sakla, at poker, at

siyang paboritong laro

sa mga pasugalan,

gaya sa Santo Cristo sa

Binondo noong siglo 1900.

be the source of a country's downfall or
