Tacloban! Poem by Edward Kofi Louis

Tacloban!



Typhoon!
Tacloban;
In the Philippines,
And, there were much destructions after the act.

Dear, dearth!
Bringing hunger to the people after the destruction;
Love!
Tell me your name;
So that, you can help the people living in Tacloban.

Earth, dearth!
With the muse of nature's call;
The muse of life!
I don't know what you want inside this land and,
Outside this land after the typhoon;
But, let is find help to save the people affected by this typhoon.

Tacloban!
In the Philippines;
After the disaster;
But, the people now need water, food and shelter.
The muse of life!
Nostalgia now looks upon the moon;
As, the people wait for hope.

Tacloban!
Life had been a struggle for you ever since you were born;
Then came the typhoon to destroy everythinfg along its way,
But, the world will surely listen to you and help.

Tacloban!
The typhoon,
Coming along and, destroying everything along the way;
But, the muse of love will surely reach out to you people,
As the world finds a way to restructure your status.
