“It is the farmers, without any meaningful support from the government, who principally worked for a bountiful harvest. Even the so-called budget for irrigation cannot be claimed as government support because we’re the ones paying the exorbitant irrigation fees. Now, because the the government is giving measly funds for the national rice and corn program, we seriously doubt that high harvest yields can continue.” – KMP

kung bibigyan sila ng pagkakataon,
tutal at nakahasa naman
nang pagkatalim-talim
ang kanilang mga karit-panggapas,
nahihinuha kong hindi kawayan
ang kanilang titiyagaing imbakan
ng mga barya-baryang tila mumong
kanin na sa kanila'y pinasusubo
nahihinuha kong sa bungo
ng mga asyendero't hunyango
hahalik ang mga karit
isang malaking hiwa
na tatambakan nila
ng limampisong barya.
