Philippine Apocalypse 1: Who Will Start The Apocalypse? Poem by Rey Benipayo

In midst of sunset in Legaspi Boulevard,
Pedro and Arnie unexpectedly encounter the Predictor,
A weird legendary poor old street man
Who may predict the future.

When the two men walked in front of him,
He said to the two while walking,

'You're both in trouble tonight.'

They both stop and face the Predictor.
They just laughed at him but the Predictor is serious.

'Ye right, this old man is crazy!
I don't think it will come true.', said Arnie.

'Old guy, if it will come true,
Then tell us the future of the Philippines.', said Pedro.

Then the Predictor stand and face them and said,

'In a year of the unknown,
Where people of the Philippines
Think of themselves
Abuses the everything's that blessed them
Being blind and money hunger,
The apocalypse begins.

I'm a predictor who sees the future
The future of this nation
Where citizens divided by their own egos
You may believe on me or not,
It's up to you but the words
That I will going say may be a great caution.

I don't think these will happen
For I greatly believe, you as a citizen
Holds the key to prevent the apocalypse
Our nature's future is always at the hand of citizens
So listen to me, to the next words I will say.'

Then the two listen as the Predictor says...
