Hostage Dilemma Poem by MELVIN BANGGOLLAY

HOSTAGE DILEMMA
Melvin d. Banggollay



Hostage taker of a bloody massacre
of Visiting nationals is a stupid culprit
of a crime to express his great anger
against his dismissal is out of mind and wit.

Over and over again, I firmly condemn
such act of a man even he is a fellowmen
for it's against law and decency's helm
it's against life, honor and dignity of men.

Such is a heinous crime of satanic tendency
in airing grievances at the expense of many
tarnished the great honor and dignity
of the Filipinos as a nation of great hospitality.

Taking a life of a brother of no mercy
Is beyond reason of morale decency
hence, it must be condemn by all humanity
even he is a kin or a part of our community.

An act of prudence, understanding and mercy,
Is my personal appeal to the victim's family,
to the affected Nationals for their decency
Not to retaliate against our brothers in their country.

God have mercy upon the souls of the victims
That they may be taken in God's kingdom
and give upon them forgiveness of their sins
and to their families, peace, love and freedom.

Everybody knows this is an isolated act
Not sanction at all or like by the Filipinos
Who are known to be peace loving product
of co-existence with other nations across.



Expression of grief for the victims of the
hostage drama at Quirino Grand Stadium
against the visiting tourist and foreign nationals
from Honkong by a stupid and fool policeman.
