Apo's Photo Watches From the Wall
1. APO ON T HE WALL
by Bj Patino
1 There’s this man’s photo on the wall
2 ofmy father’s office at home, you
3 know, where father brings his work,
4 where he doesn’t look strange
5 still wearing his green uniform
6 and colored breast plates, where,
7 to prove thathe works hard, he
8 also brought a photo ofhis boss
9 whom he calls Apo, so Apo could,
10 you know, hang around on the wall
11 behind him and look over his shoulders
12 to make sure he’s snappy and all.
13 Father snappedat me once, caught me
14 sneaking around his office at home
15 looking at the stuffon his wall- handguns,
16 plaques, a sword,medals a rifle-
17 told me that was no place for a boy
18 only men, when he didn’t really
19 have to tell me because, you know,
20 that photo ofApo on the wall was already
21 looking at me around,
22 his eyes following me like he was
23 that scary Jesus in the hallway, saying
24 I know what you’re doing.
