Kagat Lang Ng Langgam Yan





Yan ang madalas niyong maririnig sa tuwing may mga bata (o matatandang isip bata) na kelangan iniksyunan... "kagat lang ng langgam yan" pero gano nga ba talaga kasakit... o kalala ang kagat ng langgam.. isipin niyong na liit nilang yun eh nagagawa nila tayong mapaaray.. kasama na ang pamumula ng balat at pangangati nito.. habang pinapanood ko tong video na to naalala ko ung "A Bug's Life" --- kung san napatunayan na there is strenght in numbers.. langgam laban sa grasshoppers..

Pero dito sa video na to --- gecko / butiki -- ang pinagpyestahan~ Fascinating how ants can strip clean the butiki (o tandaan ang conyommandments) in more or less a day's time. At di lang sa langgam applicable yan... tao rin... tayo rin... sa huli... pagkain lang din tayo ng mga langgam.. Death is the great equalizer. No matter how powerful you are, how good-looking, how rich you think you are, when we all die, we nourish the same nightcrawlers, maggots, and whatever other belly-crawling scavengers there are that care to feed on our rotting carcasses. Let’s see how cool and hip you’ll feel once the denizens of the underworld start feeding on your innards from the inside out. Will your fancy, signature clothes stop them from sinking their teeth into your decomposing flesh?

I am dedicating this video to all the victims of the Maguindanao Massacre and their families... na pinatay ng parang kandila lang na kelangan upusin dahil may kuryente na... at malala.. ng dahil sa pera... at pulitika.. "pera- pera lang yan"??? --- hanggang san ka dadalin ng posisyon mo sa gobyerno.. san ka dadalin ng AK-47 mo? sa huli lahat tayo ay nasa ilalim ng batas ng Diyos.. at ng... mga langgam.. Can you stop them from marching, numbering in the thousands, into your gaping mouth, the same mouth you used to cut people with to size? Can you manipulate the creatures of the night the same way you’d order your minions around to do your dirty deeds for you? Can you dig yourself with nail-less fingers out of your grave the way you used to nimbly climb up social ladders? In the end, stripped of your mounds of bullsh*t, you’re no better than the rest of us. Death will come for you soon enough ... bahala na ang mga Oecophylla smaragdina ni Kuya Kim sa inyo..
