Ang Daing sa Gethsemane
at Ang Dying na Secretary
At pumasok sa Gethsemane si Hesukristo
Naghinaing sa Ama at sa mga apostoles nito
Oras na! Oras na! Narito na!
Ipagkakanulo na Siya!
Sila ang mga armado
May mga espada at pamalo
Oras na ng kadiliman
Mga tagasunod nagsikulasan
At dumating sa TED si El Gordo
Naghinanakit sa Amang at sa mga estudyante nito
Oras na! Oras na! Nandito na!
Ilalaglag na siya!
Sila ang mga LPardo
May mga balakin at plano
Oras na ng kalaban
Mga tinuruan iniwanan
Ang paglaglag sa puwesto kay Rn Corona
Ay isa bang banta, badya o babala?
Ang pag-#Waay kay Js Rd bilang Secretary
Ay balakin din ba ng pumalit sa DILG?

*Unique Holy Week
Honourable scribe of Santa Singh, Banta Singh.
Patented Knight, with malice towards one and all.
Aging beast of H.T. fame, heartless Singh of Singhs.
O! Lewd one, discourage not the budding souls.
Heard Bond wrote a piece; you break another heart.
‘If’ was quoted twenty, but you played your wicked part.
Is it not, the aged who learn with the passage of time.
Supreme are the paths of learning for those who rhyme.
Beware! Prarthana still remains unaware;
‘Who hath done it and where?’ fails to compare.
Macbeth’s jealous theories, and your side of the real story.
You holier than thou, atop those mountains of sand,
Basking in the limelight’s of sheer indulgent praise.
True lord! These exalted, hearken Kalyug’s arrival.
