'NO MERCY' PRESIDENT OF A COUNTRY


     The family of Cadet Aldrin Jeff Cudia, who was ousted from the Philippine Military Academy, went to the Palace to ask for assistance. But the President of this country did not give them mercy. As the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley said it in 1819, there are "Rulers who neither see, nor feel, nor know/But leech-like to their fainting country cling."/
    Viva la revolucion en las Islas de Los Ladrones!  



The blogger, as a national awardee in English poetry, poses with the late Kerima Polotan-Tuvera, then one of the country's best writers and essaysts. At the Focus mggazine in the Port Area, Manila.
