Duterte's Retulia Poem by Douglas Scotney
Duterte's Retulia
Tyrant Mezentius of Agylla
brings to mind Duterte in Manilla.
Mezentius bound hands to rotting hands,
faces to rotting faces;
bound the living to the dead.
At last the people arose
and destroyed him
and the nation Retulia
to where he had fled.
