Here’s the tribute message of Darryl Yap to Imelda Marcos:

“kahit si Superman magmumukhang mahina
kumpara sa lakas, tatag at tibay ng babaeng ito.

Malayo sa pagiging perpekto
pero pinakamalapit sa Tao.

Makahulugang Buwan ng mga Kababaihan
sa lahat ng Pilipina sa buong Mundo—

Pagbati sa iyo at sa iyong Ina, Senator Imee.
Nananatiling Makapangyarihan kahit walang kapa,
suot ang kalasag ng damdaming makabansa.”
