Kaki Kuning

Kaki kuning, bersandar penuh pening

Penuh intaian, impi dan kadang berlari dalam hening.

Kadang ku menemukanmu, kaki kuning, tegak berlari penuh gemercing

Gaung dan gema diseberang terus kah kan kau gapai?

Berhentilah, dunia kan diam nantinya.

Kini, kaki kuning, tergeletak tak berdesing

Kaki kuning, kini sadar, semua kan menghitam pada malam nanti

semua kan hilang pada saat sinar matahari menguning; mati dan menghitam, esok pagi.

Is it just me or the sky is getting low? ;)

You don't have to fight all of my fights.

You were taking a deep breath before you've planned to stop by here, to read. 30 minutes earlier you were hiding up things in your pocket, pretending those things have no kind of scent I could smell.
You took the chair so I could have a rest while I was coping with my blood sugar drops, gave me that super sweet candies so I could raise the drops up.
You are the only person that could see me dying for food because my meal time is so unpredictable. Once I feel starving means I'm gonna die straight away.
You will turn on the music I like when things went bored around me, well, you know all of my favorites, don't you?

What I'm trying to tell was, have you ever heard a story about a big tree that could grow itself? And have you ever realized about the damn pretty good purposes of why God put these eyes, hands, brains and the rest well-ordered?
What would be your answer sounds like?
And then for twice or even more you keep trying to make me act like a reckless person. Well, thanks for all those creepy helps but you don't have to.
You don't have to fight all of my fights.

Akuarium Manusia

Pada suatu ketika saya mengunjungi sebuah akuarium manusia, memperhatikan tingkah laku mereka;

| berjalan | tertawa | melamun | berpikir | kosong | memberi | menerima | berdiri | menatap | melupakan | melihat | menuju | melangkah | berbicara | mencari | berlari | berirama | berujar |

Pukul 12 Sampai Kepada 4 Ante Meridiem.

Malam kembali datang, tak perduli panas ataupun dingin ia tetap datang menyerang. "Pukul 12 Sampai Kepada 4 Ante Meridiem, dimulai." kataku.

Jadi, inilah pukul 12 sampai kepada 4 Ante Meridiem ku. Dimana waktu terasa begitu lambat, begitu tenang.

Bagaimana denganmu?

[Didedikasikan bagi mereka yang mengidap kepribadian melankolis sempurna; malam adalah musuh mereka, namun malam pula lah yang menghantar mereka untuk mengimajikan segala, pikiran-pikiran-malam-hari-mereka]

Cheers.

Aku, Si Penurut Yang Tolol

Tuanku dulu pernah berjalan diatas air; Ia berjalan ketengah lautan ribut, membuat tenang ombak yg beriak-riak supaya kapal hambaNya tidak tenggelam.
Aku, si penurut yang tolol, ingin meniru Tuanku, tapi aku tau takkan pernah bisa.
Meskipun hanya untuk bisa berjalan diatas tepi air pun aku tak bisa.
Melihat usahaku yg sia-sia, lalu Tuanku pun berkata, menghiburku;

"Berimajinasilah layaknya kamu sedang berjalan diatas air."
