HI APOY KIKAY

Hi Apoy Kikay*
ni Marlon B. Raquel


Naka-de kuatro nga napungko
ha bawbaw han lingkuran
Nagkukutim-kutim
bagan may Bazooka ha im-im.

Nagsasaysay han kaagi
han Gera Mundial Numero Dos
Tangkong ngan ganas
asya la an kinakaon.

Kagutom inabat
atay han Hapon ginkaon
Ginhugasan, gindangdang
ha mapaso nga kalayo.

*Apoy Kikay was one of the oldest persons living in our barangay way back 1990s. My parents said that he was our distant relative. He was one of those Filipinos who survived during World War II. When I was a kid, I used to hear stories from him together with other kids in our village.
