Question

describe the apo on the wall

Answer 1

Apo on the wall is a poem that written by Bj Patino. The poem is about a little child who talks about his strict father who was a military official and a picture of his father's boss who call him ''Apo''. The little child describes Apo's picture looks like a scary Jesus on the hallway cause his eyes following him around. I find the Poem interesting because the author did not reveal Marcos real identity but because of his father's green uniform and colored breast plates he revealed that his father was a soldier who worked hard for his master ''Apo'' and his father said that there is no place for boy only for men the first thing that came into my mind that there is a chaotic event happened and that's why he said it ''only for men''  I think that time was Martial law. we all know that martial law here in the Philippines was Chaotic because of the military official who abuses their power because of the martial law. I like this poem because people at that time always following rules if they don't follow they will be punish. and maybe that little child said that Apo's Photo is like ''scary Jesus in the hallway saying I know what you're doing'' because Marcos always know what they're doing Marcos know his every move Because Marcos was a Dictator you must follow him or you're dead.
