THESE PAST FEW MONTHS
THE RICH DOGS WERE ALWAYS IN TROUBLE
THEY ARE ALWAYS IN ARGUE
WHETHER HOW THEY GOT THOSE BAGS OF BONES OR
HOW THEY BURY IT AGAIN
TRAINED DOGS WERE GOOD IN BARKING
THEY SOUNDS REAL AND AMAZING
WHILE THOSE BITCH DOGS
BARKED LOUD AND TACTLESS
YET WE WERE FORCED TO LISTEN
THERE WERE A LOT OF THINGS THAT CHANGED IN 6 YEARS
ASIDE FROM LITTLE PETTY THINGS REMAIN STABLE,
ASIDE FROM OUR ROCKY ROADS
AND THE SMOKEY ATMOSPHERE IN THE DAILY BREEZE
THINGS ARE CHANGING VERY FAST
EVEN OUR "ULAM" THAT YESTERDAY WAS PORK CHOP
NOW, GRASS CHIVES WITH BOX OF PORK
OUR FAVORITE MANGGA AND BAGOONG BECAME 10 PHP.
AND THE JEEPNEY FARE BECAME 7 PHP
WHILE MY ALLOWANCE IS STILL THE SAME
PAPA SCRATCHES HIS HEAD LIKE MONICA'S DAD
EVERYTIME THE MARKET WAS GENEROUS IN ADDING PRICES
WHILE THERE SALARIES ARE STILL THE SAME
OUR TEACHERS ARE STILL THE SAME
ASIDE FROM THEIR AGE AND WRINKLES
THEY STILL LIVED IN CHALK DUST OF TIME
WE MISS YOU SO MUCH
PLEASE DO EXTEND OUR REGARDS TO TITO AND TITA
