Quotes by Luis H. Francia (?)

“Even at brightest noon, it’s always
Full moon in my country. In these streets of
Tropic stone and Malay blood, daylight is
Moonlight mugging me on every corner
Where human shadows loll in an atmosphere
Both lunar and lunatic.
And while from either pole we’re
Half a world and seas away, this
Might as well be
An arctic archipelago, where as
The sun burns the colder it gets.
This might as well be
Equatorial Antarctica...”
― Luis H. Francia, The Arctic Archipelago and other poems

“A contingent of U.S. Marines prepared to depart as the Stars and Stripes was lowered, permanently drawing the curtains on U.S. occupation of the base that began in 1899. As President Ramos remarked, “There has been no day that foreign troops were not based on our soil,” with foreign military presence finally ending after more than four hundred years.”
― Luis H. Francia, History of the Philippines: From Indios Bravos to Filipinos
