(personal collection: Gunung Kidul, Yogyakarta, 2009)Flowery pain
Flowery pain in my heart
Piercing into my blood artery
All birds are flying away
And you want me alone
Pricking pain and hurt on me
But you want my harvest
To keep the honey and sugar
Still puncturing me with your flowers
The flowers of pain
It is a meadow of pain you give me
Impaling my blood
Crowning my head
Bonding my ankles
Flowery pain in my heart
A bed of your suspicion
Uncaring
You are knocking me off
You are no different
than the devils in the twilight
Hovering my life
Embracing me with the pricky, flowery pain
I’ll do it my way!
My revelation!

(persoonal collection: Senggigi Beach Mataram, October 2009)a Smile in the Morning
It was the opening of a new day
The sun blushing from its sleep
Sending its warmth and glittering shine
Touching georgous maiden in her cheeks
Aglow
Blowing the scented hairs softly
Touching the full lips
cuddling to its fullest love
In heart
After the olden days of pain
Hatred, jealousy, and hurt
There was a smile in the morning
Contented
radiated in the warm embrace of the sun
exquisite smile
In the morning of a new day
Passing through the weary faces
A smile in the morning
With hopes and dreams.
