CRAZY BITS OF PAPER
Just crazy bits of paper
filling many pads
words that I have written
things running through my head.
Names of unknown people
places I've not been
events that could never have happened
though so real to me.
Gradually they come to life
invited to a main event
they end up here in front of me
in a manuscript.
Within a few passing months
these crazy pages
have now become a book
wrapped in a smart cover
come and take a look.

BANYAK BIT KERTAS
Hanya potongan kertas yang gila
mengisi banyak bantalan
kata-kata yang telah saya tulis
hal-hal yang melintas di kepalaku
Nama orang tak dikenal
tempat yang belum pernah saya kunjungi
kejadian yang tidak akan pernah terjadi
meski begitu nyata bagiku.
Perlahan-lahan mereka hidup kembali
diundang ke acara utama
mereka berakhir di sini di depan saya
dalam manuskrip
Dalam beberapa bulan berlalu
halaman gila ini
kini telah menjadi sebuah buku
terbungkus cover pintar
datang dan lihatlah
