Elehiya

Hindi kailanman
bukal na isisilang

ang pag-asa at pag-ibig

dito sa azucarerang
tinigtig ng paglupig.



Walang piging na ihahanda
ang mga sakada

upang ipagsaya

ang sandali
ng paglaya.



Walang mga kwitis
na sasagitsit,

pupunit,

sa lawak at lawas
ng panggabing langit.



Walang mga mata ng paslit
ang magliliwanag

pagkakita
sa amang nagbabalik

buhat sa malaong pakikibaka
sa mga pasista-kapitalista.



Wala.



Sapagkat

kamposanto na
itong lupaing minsang


pinagpala ng Ama.
