The Tragedy of Ferdinand begins
like he once conceived it---himself the new
Adam born nude out of a bamboo shoot,
Imelda Eve vested to wash off sin,
Ninoy and Corazon two wing-clipped doves
uniting both the Papists with the Moors
and the rapacious reds with bourgeois boors
to realize the snake foreseen by Hobbes,
lastly the ever changing face of God
Jumbo, the crook, the honest chump, the rube,
and the b-list actor eager to loot
heaven of all by which it struck with awe
the earth---so to the reader it is plain
what these frauds give is Paradise Debased.
