Dal’wang VP sa gabing tahimik,

Isa’y ilaw, maliwanag, matinik.

Yung isa naman, naku po!

Sa dilim, parang nababaliw ito!

Sumasayaw, humihiyaw, parang aswang,

Yung isa’y napailing na lang.

“Ay buwan, tulungan mo naman—

Baka siya’y tuluyang masiraan!”

Upon the stage, their shadows grow,

A father’s wrath, his daughter’s show.

With words like fire, fierce and free,

They shape a nation’s history.

A king of steel, a ruthless tongue,

With fists he ruled, with death he sung.

The daughter watched, the daughter learned,

And soon her voice with fury burned.

Their sermons rang through crowded halls,

Each threat and curse met with applause.

Their faithful cheered, their critics fell,

As silence echoed prison cells.

No sins to own, no shame to bear,

They laughed at cries of deep despair.

The streets ran red, the night stood still,

While power bent to match their will.

Yet history’s hand will write its page,

Beyond the echoes of their rage.

And time will judge what men ignore—

The price of blood, the cost of war.

So, I recently searched for “Kingmaker,” the book about Atty. Vic Rodriguez, the former Marcos Executive Secretary with grand dreams of becoming a senator. But guess what? Google had other plans. Instead of Vic’s book, the search results kept showing a book about Imelda Marcos!

Maybe Google knows something we don’t? The search giant seems to have a sixth sense about who the real kingmaker is. After all, Imelda isn’t just a former first lady—she’s also the mother of the reigning king, Bongbong Marcos! Could Google be subtly hinting that Imelda, not Vic, really pulls the strings in the Marcos dynasty?

So, while Vic’s book fades into oblivion, Google’s glitch might just be a genius political commentary. Who needs a kingmaker when you’ve got the queen mother herself leading the charge? Talk about a royal mix-up!
