From Another Perspective


By Bernadette Bagon
Inspired from A Poem That Has No Title – Jose Rizal

To the Creator each Catholic knows
Who was known to give, to take, to forgive them
To the one force behind it all
But was never really there
Who holds the power, if not I?
I who was conceived, born,
with flesh and thinking
Who developed from two incomplete cells
Now a walking system of ions and molecules,
cells and tissues
I who came from a lineage of Homo sapiens
Evolved from my ancestors
Migrated and occupied the world
Surviving each day with limited resources
Human I am called; human I’ve become
Human I will always be
And thus I say
To the one force behind it all
But was never really there

Who holds the power, if not I?
