My Friend, The Terrorist, Part 2
Last week we broadcast Part 1 of our conversation with Malcolm Guy, co-director of the new film called My Friend The Terrorist, about Joma, the founder of the Communist Party of the Philippines and the Filipino New Peoples guerrilla Army, the NPA.
We left off last time with my rather naive comment about a scene in the film I found shocking. So now Part Two of our interview with Malcolm Guy, co-director of My Friend the Terrorist, as broadcast on Arts Express radio, heard on WBAI FM NYC and Pacifica affiliates across the nation.

My Friend, The Terrorist
“The song you just heard is from a poem by Jose Maria Sison, also known as Joma. But more than a poet, for the first 25 years of Joma’s adult life, he was known as the Fidel, Mao, and Che of the Philippines. However, for the next 35 years, he lived in exile in the Netherlands with his wife and comrade in arms, Julieta de Lima, thousands of miles from the Filipino battle grounds, giving counsel to the guerrilla army which he had founded. Now, a new film documentary about Joma and Julieta’s lives has been released, co-directed by Malcolm Guy and Demetri Estdelacropolis, called My Friend, The Terrorist: A Tale of Love and Revolution…”

140 Syllables by Kenneth Rexroth (1905-1982)
All my life I have wondered,
Why doesn’t somebody write
A terrible poem that says
In so many words, this world
Is a fraud, the people who
Run it are murderous fools,
Everything they ever printed
Is a lie, all their damn art
And literature is a fake,
Behind their gods and laws, and
Pee hole bandits, their science
Is just a fancy way to kill
Us and our girls and kids.
What I want to know is why
Somebody doesn’t write it
All down in about twenty
Lines of seven syllables
Once and for all, and scare the shit
Out of all the dirty squares.
