Face Dismall

of course,
I met
you at the end of the road
under the tree Beringin
where I wait
day-to-day
the uncertain
the discomfort
when the bus and car
come and go
around me
but never
if any posts I color this
make your face dismal

Like A Smoke Bomb

all changed
me and you
ye, ye
after 30 years
split
by state
and interpretation
from the fact
till our dreams
indeed different
such as the distance the sky
and earth
after a brief meeting
then disappear again
like a smoke bomb
windblown

In The Walls of My Heart

I press phone keypad
Once more
each sitting alone
at bus
ringing on the other side
loud
voice ringtone
songs
'Do not leave me
own, I could die
the noose quiet... '
again it
I create a song
alone
each lonely creep
in the walls
of my heart

Dragonfly Destination

dragonfly flown to float
above eggplant flower
alight on prolonging
is then flown again
descend upon for flower
what grow [in] hillside Bark
my day-dream float
flown with dragonfly
light like kapok
what float
with no destination

Jacko

Your life ends
in neverland
music, life, and colors
life you srink
leap in the street
tempestuousness vote
movement of the world
shrik tendence
young
Ask to leave marks
light
who
fluorescent-phosphorescent
in circle
of Thou-feeds

Imagination

The little black bat
Flew in the night
Break through our the wall
Moving out the wall
Moving out the feeling of my wife
Moving out from the hidden door
From fear
Now children shriek
And ask me
Is the bat an animal?
Or their imagination

Pray Only

I minup coffee,
coconut rice breakfast,
continued smoke one stick.
She was sick.
Her tears couldn’t lie,
but I Did not know what really was,
I was also still confused
to look for her sad
Just what I going to do
I continued to pray
only

Old People

under mango tree
old people
sit prolonging
at the same time
tell a story the past
what is always repeated
in back part its tongue
is young originally hear it
thereafter
bored
then go
to its own world
history is true always
recuring.

This Calm Turmoil

so, seconds and seconds passed
in my life
although every time I want to always be beside you
see your face
shaded
always
I feel lost
I'm not on your side every
o, the turmoil of young blood
heady
segaligus disturbing
and no drug that
This calm turmo

Freedom

what the meaning of freedom
when you couldn't do anything
from fear of my children future

what the meaning of freedom
when you couldn't thinking
of beautiful garden in your home

what the meaning if freedom
when I haven't free
from fear of nightmare
