GUMIL Metro Manila

Herman G. Tabin

boteee!!! diario!!!
come on, beat
the gust
from
pushing
a cart
that causes a stream
of sweat

boteee!!! diario!!!
come on, shout
the empty
meaning
of the world
dragged
by your steps
at high noon

boteee!!! diario!!!
come on, look for
the last strength
of limbs
in the city
of garbage
of the rich
