Description: The public is invited!


epigone - April 2, 2007 11:27 AM (GMT)
The Filipino Artists In Defense of Democratic Capitalism (FADOC) wishes to announce their upcoming gallery shows, book launchings and promotional tours which will be held in different venues on either simultaneous or succeeding dates. The first book launching, In Defense of Democratic Capitalism by Domingo Santos, will be held sometime in December (tentative) in the National Commission for Culture and Arts. Simultaneous and succeeding promotional tours will be held in galleries and museums in Manila, Makati, Quezon City, Cebu, Cagayan, Davao, Zamboanga. Promotional products like T-shirts, mugs, jewelry, etc. will also be on sale. Foreign dignitaries from Russia, Taiwan, Japan, USA, Britain, Australia and the rest of the world are all invited. Exact dates shall be published in local newspapers. Tangkilikin natin ang sariling atin! Ang AFP!

Here are a few excerpts out of about 90 poems from Domingo's chapbook on poetry entitled "In Defense of Democratic Capitalism (Bohemian Rhapsody)"

SECULAR POLITICS INSPIRED :snipemo:

be wise as serpents and harmless as doves
be like those innocent sparrows flying in droves
they don't know if tomorrow they'll eat or not
they don't know that God loves them a lot
economic and health uncertainty implicit in verse
same way as He likes democratic capitalism unrehearse
good americans don't know if tomorrow they'll eat or not
good filipinos don't know if they'll get sick or not
in chicago public hospitals they treat malignant tumors
free!! including morphine that calms down one's tremors
work!! so that you can afford private health insurance
and finally tell those minor ailments good riddance
for He has a plan for us when we get sick
He too has plans for us when our finances are bleak
you might not be aware that it's proof that good is good
because if not devils in death rows like Sison would be "good"
so then be like innocent sparrows flying in droves
be wise as serpents and harmless as doves

DISMAL AND TEEMING WITH GHOST TOWNS

vladimir was fuming and was irate
the harvest the starving peasants ate
those lingering times when he removed the profit motive
on which they depended on their way by locomotive
tragic that it had a negative repercussion
that disastrous wild and galloping inflation
hence, they limited their own produce to their own consumption
millions of peasants died of starvation and exhaustion
the law of supply and demand they failed to refute
and labor camps that placed them in disrepute
the market Mikhail and Andrei adopt
in legal parlance, they were "estopped"
wages they determined by the law of supply and demand
and because of that Sergeyevich got a reprimand
how else can they attract workers in siberia?
if not to increase their wages there, asked maria
will it be another mass deportation?
and again determine the tempo of the Plan by intuition?
almost everyone should not had been a peasant
if it were democratic where life has been pleasant
commerce and trade should have absorbed all of them
and everyone can afford a car and a modem
everything has been available including all amenities in life
unless one is lazy or torn by domestic strife
thet capitalist has no assurance
dwindling profits that cover car insurance
only to provide utmost consumer satisfaction
all he has been getting was commie's extortion
Sison demeaned me for having no money
in my defense of free market for the sake of honey
mao declared that it was "voodoo economics"
remember your morbid mortality statistics
during that Great Bloody Purge
that made it fail to Leap Forward even to the slightest surge
give me then a valid explanation
this time no longer an aberration
psychic surgery which i spread with quivering pen
to all those desperate communists of Phnom Penh
finally, daily has he gotten death threats
while good Dubya assiduously solicited bets
whether the commies' wishes and prayers come true
that he loses the elections and disappears out of the blue

Here is a copy of a poem inserted in a pocket of a slain NPA who in her letter to his son "had intermittent nightmares that caused her to wake up perspiring and sometimes sleep walking". She died in the arms of an AFP who tried all means to revive her.
GULONG LANG ANG PAHINGA (IN ANOTHER SPIRITUAL DIMENSION)
(Our Nightmarish Dreams Turned Us In And 'It's Fair', Part 2)

when will this ordeal come to expire
when will this double file of women begin to tire
armed with all sorts of weapons and knives
with which to strke me while i'm made to run between their wives
Yes, i have murdered AFP soldiers whose numbers i cannot count
now i encounter an imperishable nightmare in this battlefront
at this spiritual isolated time juncture
the only rest i have was the whirling of my body in its brief tenure
thereafter, i am drowning in a pool of liquefied manure
while i wish that this suffering will reach its comforting detour

Another NPA Lady Amazon in her days of sweatful nightmarish dreams as she related them to me!!'Look at you! You're a mess', as I look into her eyes. 'You cannot even look at me straight in the eye! You're a complete meltdown!!', See You Again Somewhere in Time, an anthology of poems written by Mischa Santos, Praetoria.

Here is another copy of a poem taken from the pockets of a slain NPA. He was an agent-of influence in the CPP-NPA influencing their policies and strategies. He probably was able to dupe his comrades into the trap in Tarlac.He admittedly killed some of his comrades while at war with AFP in Tarlac.

TAKE US WITH YOU, AFP AND US ARMY
(Our Nightmarish Dreams Turned Us In)

Nobody cares from among the press if you'll win or lose this war
Everyone either smokes, gossips, colludes or brags that he passed the bar
But you're assured that you'll triumph and carry on hostilities smiling
Because your Good God says in heaven you'll watch your kids sailing
Some of you might not be able to make it and pass away bellyaching
But you're comforted with such heavenly treat, that's why you're laughing
You shall not only win this war but eternally remain at peace
in heaven because you pray to God to whom you lease
your souls, while these bellicose NPAs after death, wake up caught standing
in the crossfire between two warring armies, jumping from their bancas, treading
petrified and driven to lunacy because of collusion, mayhem and phlegm (apathy)
and because joma sison has not ceased killing you by orders on his modem

THOUSANDS OF EX-COMMIES TURNED AFP SPIES IN CPP-NPA

JOMA SISON, HIS TERRORIST AGENDA, HIS MURDER VICTIMS

he hurled at me his biography as an alleged "human rights victim"
when upon his orders, i the recipient has been his torture victim
he hurled at me his rights as an accused
when upon his orders i the recipient has been abused (everyday provoked and harrassed in public places)
he hurled at me the alleged "murders committed by the military"
when i the recipient was threatened by him to be wary
he hurled at me the killing of six npas in capiz
when they were done in self defense to protect ___'s wife, alice
he hurled at me cory aquino's human rights record
but extols mao who murdered millions, off the record
he ordered his terrorists to banner headlines of "murdered leftist journalists"
but conceals the crimes of mao who murdered millions of pro-capitalist journalists
he condoled with them upon hearing the news about the murder of ninoy aquino
but has devised evil ways and means to assault and pauperize luisita's cory aquino
he criticized marcos, cory, estrada, ramos and arroyo as "corrupt"
when out of the 666 counts, he was acquitted on one by a judge whose paneros were also "corrupt"
he never offered condolences to the innocent victims of 9/11
and was either an accomplice or a principal in the murders of congressmen, one by one
the good and holy cory aquino granted him pardon and his prison release
but he offered no sympathies when her daughter was strickened with venereal disease
and so many many grisly and horrible crimes he has committed
and to communism and terrorism he remains committed
and so many many more faults and heinous crimes he has committed
but to democracy and free enterprise we in the AFP remain committed

TORTURE VICTIMS OF KAMPANYANG AHOS AND MURDER VICTIMS OF SISON

PLEASE LISTEN TO REASON AND SANITY, JOMA SISON!PLEASE!

joma goes to peking in the middle of the night
with cigarettes on his left and beer on his right
he argues with his arms flailing with all their might
but never stops to think if everything is alright
his unpredictable pattern of consumer behaviour
behooves him to make adam smith his saviour
for people under communism are alloted limited goods
through ration cards as if he can predict one's moods
they can accomodate his (sison's) unpredictable consumer demand
why can't they (China under mao)determine prices by the law of supply and demand
who are they to determine the tempo of the Plan (5-Year Economic Plan)
by intuition!!!! and allot a slice of meat a week to every man
who are they to deport hordes to a rice plantation
while some desert rice planting in utter desperation(70 million chinese peasants died because of forced collectivization resulting in famine)
because they have to spend their time in a queue or line
the cabbage leaves they can consume in sixty (days) are only nine
does the Party then knows best and its every whim followed?
or are Greenspan, Delano, Adam Smith and George Bush hallowed?

AHH DEMOCRACY! WAAHH CONRADO DE QUIROS!!
(I Can Commit Treason Through Subtle Ways and Means)

Ahh democracy! The Statue of Liberty! With all her attendant benefits
See how she can accomodate Sison's gnashing teeth and Conrado's hissful fits
See how they can slander our own democratically elected presidents
Bash them intermittently except their own fellow commie Filipino residents
Where a change of leadership can allegedly cause eviction of a non-conformist subordinate
Not similar to a Joma Sison takeover where all NPAs coordinate
All their efforts to rape, mangle and mutilate political prisoners
Similar to policies in communist countries where labor camps are teeming with bruised loners
Ahh democracy! the blind Statue of Liberty! See how free are we to speak of repression!!
While we release Sison and his comrades from prison for reasons of compassion
Ahh democracy! NPAs can whine of low wages while spending them on cigarettes
And kill anti-communists and anti-terrorists with grenades and sharp machettes
Portray the AFP as a bunch of human rights violators and villainous murderers
While they plot their scheming legal strategies in their hidden Makati chambers
Ahh democracy. the Statue of Liberty with her percolating neon lights!
Ahh constitutional democracy, promoter of human rights!
Waahh Conrado de Quiros and his self righteous emulation of NPA terrorists
Waahh Conrado de Quiros and his slanted articles in defense of communists!!!

AN APPEAL TO THE HAGUE PEACE PANEL

i bet that if australia and the philippines become communist states
rich NPAs shall hurriedly flee to the united states
fancy the dresses that liz taylor wore
and surely wish that laura bush becomes a whore
for the commies are aware that life in a communist state is hard
where slowly but surely they'll torture AFPs hard
why don't they want to buy or import a soviet lada
has it been because they fancy pontiacs from canada?
why don't they reside in communist vietnam
has it been because they want this country to be a bedlam?
has it been because they want to create chaos and sow anarchy
abolish the non-intrusive british monarchy?
through globalization the chinese benefit
through haggling we buy their shoes that fit
through globalization fidel castro and cubans benefit
those cuban cigars american smokers generously lit
for people like us in this country (australia)
it's better hanging bells on a christmas tree
than to be insurrectionists and rebels seeking death
that is what the Holy Bible has predicted and sayeth
how many levis jeans have gabrielas worn
how may hallmark greeting card have they torn
how many imported cigarettes have NPAs smoked
how many republicans have they killed or yoked
'times have they spent their holidays in the united states
while people in communist countries cannot even travel to foreign states
how many times have they condoned
torture by mao in china where joma's illegitimate daughters are cordoned
'times have i told you that CIAs too have survived assassination attempts
same way as sison had survived but still pre-empts
all chances to publish this kind of poetry
and all attempts to hang bells on a christmas tree

THE NIXON ADMINISTRATION AND THE DEATH OF ALLENDE
Poetical Book Review by James Duncan McPherson

doctrinaire ideology probably has blinded him to the facts before his eyes
inside, i wander through his intellectual swamp"* he failed to apprise
assisted suicide? nowhere in it can on find what's on his mind
to begin with, Chile did not belong to Salvador Allende", the mastermind
i exaggerate? in ousting him, "the military saved the country"!!
a civil war was being prepared by Marxists"without raison d'etre
and like the Philippine situation, would "mean an immense loss of life
half-a-million equivalent to 16 million dead in World War 2", such senseless strife
may i remind you, haslam, nixon's role was merely confined to bluff and bluster
but you attempted to make a theoretical mountain out of a quirky molehill" in the letter
nixon did not kill allende.... USA did not kill allende, period!!
and for that george w. bush should be conferred sovereign knighthood!!!

NPA AMAZON, A RACIST, D'ONLY CAPITALIST EXPLOITER

she vents out to me her ____labor grievances
connives with the rest to get me, those unholy alliances
not only does she wants me to get fired
but time it on my birthday when i'm tired
she snipes at me for being black, no respect ( mbeke's nose is finely chiseled, mine is sabog)
sneered at me for having no car while one in a religious sect
not worthy to invoke nor matters worthy of discussion
she always gossips on the phone sitting on her chair cushion
oh, God, i might have one questionable shortcoming (mistakenly eating somebody's sandwich)
but please tell her not to ever lie to me about checks forthcoming

WE INTEND TO BE USEFUL, NOT "USEFUL IDIOTS"(AMERICAN LIBERALS)
(An Exact Personification of a Manchurian Candidate, The Movie)
it has been my lifelong ambition and enduring dream
printed on hundreds of sheets of paper that equal one ream
closet communist spy and socialist liberal that i am
patriotic and loyal, from CPUSA* to uncle sam
that there comes the day when i become a liberal politician
feign those grandiose plans and remain an anti-war tactician
through active measures, i will inflict heavy toll on the enemy
control the press, slant the news to defeat a southeast asian ragtag army(AFP)
and that when i become the great, great american president
resilient that i am would give the hint: i am your fellow-commie US resident
thus, shall i create chaos and anarchy, in congress, uproar
well, watch those NPAs and G2s laugh and roar
shall i make a fool of myself when i make it known, such as in this era
we seek to dispel the myth: we are such "useful idiots", my dear elvira
try mocking me for economic sabotage and defrauding the american public
and i shall place you behind bars for making love to me, a lunatic

Pen name and my daughter's pen name. Sison is taunting me always why not identify myself, comrade pilok threatening me through his peers by warning to indict me for giving a false name, I answered, "Are you goddammned crazy? Why would I? So that you can kill me and my daughters?' Hindi pa halang ang bituka ko! :armyLol:

But we'll end up having name changes and use those. And remain incognito with my black-mulatto son-in-laws in Praetoria. Ask Sison who prefer blondes rather than blacks "if he can tolerate having a black in law. No way, sasabihin niya. Just like what an NPA amazon has said quote unquote "Blacks are dirty" "They should be hanged". You can ask her name through email. I'll give it to you.

Let's just say that 50 percent of the credit goes to a lawyer named David H.. A lawyer who handled people so well. The greatest literary artist, lawyer, etc of all. An "iron ore" magnate. But 50 percent goes to me. Look, the man doesn't want to be identified.

Prospective venue. I had a lawyer-newspaperman here in Britain arrange the deal but it is my first preference. He's now in Philippines.

tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor, rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief...plagiarist, copycat, opportunist, rat...in the united kingdom, a lawyer is NEVER called a lawyer...he is ALWAYS referred to as a BARRISTER of Her Majesty's Government...and a newspaperman is UNHEARD of in the british isles...he is referred to as a CORRESPONDENT...or a MEMBER OF THE PRESS...sewer rat naman...why are you asking for FREE copies?...epigone did not go through all that occurs when writing a book only to hand copies of it for free...the price alone of the book -- any book -- should be taken as a recognition of the author's brillance. :banana:

MY WIFE DIED IN HER SLEEP WHY? (BINANGUNGOT ANG MAHAL KONG ASAWA. BAKIT?)

it't not that he's lifting his own seat
but modesty aside with poetic beat
he granted the fervent wish
of a sex-starved lady who said he was a stupid fish
to implicate himself in a crime
that has never been committed up to this time
oh, those angelic gruesome ill-wishes
fomented by those wealthy good witches
all for the sake of a purely demented love
for a poor slave worker who sleeps in an alcove
my 'marilyn monroe' does not curse and was good
she planned to take of other else's brood
even though she hated the crap
and one wished that she took the lap
she readily granted in a finger's snap
even though she knew it was a trap
rejoice, marilyn together with your brethren
for your lap dances shall strengthen

I studied Communications in a community college. I was forced to study grammar and compose essays and make oral reports. I got an A. I regretted fooling around in UP. All I do is sit on the university lounge doing nothing. Now I am back to schooling.
