GABU
by Carlos Angeles
The battering restlessness of the sea
Insists a tidal fury upon the beach
At Gabu, and its pure consistency
Havocs the wasteland hard within its reach.
Brutal the daylong bashing of its heart
Against the seascape where, for miles around,
Where is Gabu?
Gabu, Philippines

Nakikilala sa kulay ng balat, ika nga,
kaya sa San Franciscoy maingat ako
habang naghihintay ng bus patungong Iowa.
Malakas daw ang racial prejudice, sabi nila,
kawawa ang mga Negro at mga di puti,
malapit na raw magrebolusyon dahil dito.
Ngatog na ngatog ako sa takot at gutom
dahil kalalapag ko lang buhat sa Tokyo.
