BANANA REPUBLIC






BANANA REPUBLIC
By: Deo Antonio D. Llamas

Have we really become a Banana Republic 
Where monkeys thrive to come and play

What is sad to see there is no true unity
Each one does what pleases them and say

Democracy or Democrazy we are quite sick
Our Nation needs therapy or a painful surgery

Chaos reigns selfish gains disrespect to authority
Have made our people lost vision with out direction

We have lost our sense of decency like three icons
That sees no evil and hear no evil and says no evil

                Monkey business as in everyone is going bananas
       
                Have enriched the corrupt and we know it won't last
Everyone is left to their lust, greed and schemes
Inviting disaster and consequential suffering

Let us remember their is a price to pay
If we want progress lets embrace the right way

Let us pray as a people for our leaders today
That God will give them wisdom and save us from pain

SOMETHING INTERESTING AND FUN ABOUT THE LLAMAS FAMILY OF THE PHILIPPINES . PHOTO GALLERY:   Virginia Llamas 1922 Philippine Carnival Queen.     From I Walked with Heroes: “‘ You, an editor!’” my mother said. ‘You, a university graduate, who has been to the United States! Acting as prince consort to a Miss Philippines!’ Then, suddenly suspicious, she demanded, ‘Did she ask for you?’”2 (On the far left is Eugenio Lopez, Sr.)   Carlos P. Romulo escorted Virginia Llamas in the pageant. After two and a half years of courtship, they married on July 1, 1924, in Pagsanjan, and honeymooned in Baguio. They had four sons: Carlos, Jr., (“Mike”) in 1925; Gregorio Vicente (“Greg”) in 1927; Ricardo Jose (“Dick”) in 1933; and Roberto Rey(“Bobby”) in 1938. ( See pictures below) Gen. Carlos P.
