Sa Mata ni Andres

by ABIGAIL M. ADRIATICO Maulap ang kalangitan nang masilayan ng bayani ang kumpulan ng mga tao sa tabi.   Habang hawak ang mga karatulang may samu’t saring kataga, patuloy sa pagsigaw ang mga kabataang napupuno ng galit at hinagpis sa mga pangyayari sa bansa na hindi kanais-nais.   Kanyang naalala…
