SOMEONE IN A BIG BUS STATION


SEE SOMEONE WHO IS LOOKING FOR
THE CARRIAGE HE WANTS
BROKERS OF A BIG BUS STATION
WHO ARE USUALLY IMPOLITE AND INSISTENCIUS
FOR SUPPOSE THE MAN IS IN CONFUSING
THEN CATCH HIM SOON TOGETHER
LIKE A HUNGER LION GETS ITS DELICIOUS FOOD
“JAKARTA?” “SURABAYA?” “JOGYA?” “SOLO?”
“NOT HERE, THERE” “NOT THAT, THIS”
“FOLLOW ME, DON’T FOLLOW HIM”
“LETS GO WITH ME” “YOU ARE MINE”
THEY SAY LIKE THE CHEEPING BIRD
WITH PULL THE MAN SOMEWHERE THEY LIKE
AND URGE HIM TO FOLLOW THEM
“STOP, AND HEAR ME!
I’M LOOKING FOR A BUS
THAT WILL BRING ME TO HEAVEN.
CAN YOU TELL ME, SIRS?”
SAYS THE MAN CLEARLY
MAKE THEM SURPRISED AND FINALLY
WENT TO LEAVE THE MAN ALONE


ONE SOMETHING SILENT FLOWER IN THE HEART


IF MY CHOICE
I’M VERY HAPPY
LIVE IN THE GARDEN
WHERE IS TO WAKE AND TO PROTECT
UNDERSTAND AND LOVING BEAUTY IS REALLY
BECAUSE
TO CREATE LIKE THAT
WHAT CAN I DO
EXCEPT TO SURRENDER
ALTHOUGH PEOPLE
CAN MAKE HISTORIES
WITH THOUSAND WILL POWER AND SPIRIT
NOTHING TO CREATE
CAN PREVENT
THE DESIGN OF GOD


INDONESIAN ALPHABET

FIVE OF THE TWENTY SIX LETTERS
OF MY INDONESIAN ALPHABET ARE LIVE
BUT THE REST OTHERS ARE DIE
I DON’T KNOW WHY
THAT IS THE REASON WHY
I’VE EVER ASKED TO WHOEVER I MET
THERE WERE TWO REACTIONS OF THEM;
ONE WAS INDIFFERENT
AND THE OTHER ONE WAS AFFECTED
THE INDIFFERENT PERSON SAID,
“I DON’T KNOW!”
BUT THE AFFECTED SAID,
“WE CAN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!”
THAN I WAS DISAPPOINTED
IF MORE THAN 200 MILLIONS OF INDONESIAN
PEOPLE ARE DIE
MUST IT STILL “I DON’T KNOW”
OR “WE CAN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT”?
THEREFORE I GET AWAY TO THE WATER
SEA, STONES, SANDS, SUN MOON AND STARS
BUT THEY DIDN’T SAY ANYTHING
THEY WERE QUIET,
REALLY QUIET
AND SILENT
AND I WAS VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED
THEN I GIVE THEM ALL
TO MY GOD ALMIGHTY
WHILE GO ON TO ATTEND FOR
MY LIVE LETTERS THOSE ARE MINORITY
AMONG THE REST OTHERS DIE
THOSE ARE MAJORITY
ON THE NEXT NIGHT
I DREAM DEMOCRATIC
AND HUMAN RIGHT

CRYING IN THE MIDNIGHT

THERE WAS CRYING IN THE MIDNIGHT
WITH A SUFFERING PRAYER OF THE BROKEN HEART
CRIED OUT OF THE SILENCE TO INTERRUPT
THE NIGHT SOUNDS OF THE INSECT ELEGY
THERE WAS CRYING IN THE MIDNIGHT
FLIED UP ON THE SKY
STABBED THE HEAVEN WALL
TO REQUEST THE LORD COMPASSION
THERE WAS CRYING IN THE MIDNIGHT
OF THE MOTHER EARTH SUFFERING
ABOUT THE LOVING SOUNDS AND DAUGHTERS
WHO SLAYED SINLESS
BY THE HUMANITY ENEMIES



POEM IN ALONG DRY SEASON


DRY GRASS
BROWN LEAFS
RUSTLING SOUNDS
OF BAMBOOS SHRUBBERY
INTERRUPT THE SONG OF DAILY
DUSTY OF AIR ON THE SKY
POISON IN THE HEART
STRONGLESS AND LANGUID
OF ANIMAL CRYING
DROUGHT OF THE TREES LEAFLESS
CAN’T PREVENT THE WIND STORMING
OF THE DRY SEASON
THE LIFE EXPRESSIONS
MADE BROWN THE PANORAMA
WRAPPED THE LOOK DESTRUCTED THE HOPE
THE BRIGHT OF THE SUNSHINE
CAN’T WIPE THE DARKNESS OF SOUL
SUFFER OF THE BARREN SOUL
PRESSED DOWN BY THE HEART CRYING
AND THE BITTERNESS OF THE NIGHT TOO
DAYS RUN TOTTERY FOR THE THREAT
OF THE THOUSAND DISASTERS
WHICH ARE GOING TO HAPPEN
THE LOST MORNING
THE BROKEN AFTERNOON
RINGING OF THE CLOCKS
ACCOUNT THE SILENT
OF THE WHOLE NIGHT
IN THIS ALONG DRY SEASON


AFTER DESTRUCTION THE JUNGLE


FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF THEIR DWELLING IN THIS WORLD
AND ALSO ALL OF THEIR TREASURES ARE ROBBED
BY THE PRETEXT TO DEVELOP ECONOMY PEOPLES
AND THE RISING OF A NEW ERA TOO
WHICH IS CLEANING SO MUCH FROM THE CCN
SO THEN…
THE WILD ANIMALS WHICH ARE DESPERATE AND RANDOM
GO IN DROVES TO ATTACK
THE HEART AND THOUGHT OF MAN
FOR BUILD UP THEIR JUNGLE THERE
AND MAKE NEW PALACE THEM AGAIN
COMPLETE WITH ALL OF THEIR JUNGLE CUSTOMS
NOW
IN THE HOPE
THEY PRAYER AND ASK TO THE LORD
FOR BLESSES THEM
(OH, MAY BE SUCCESSFUL, MAY NOT BE?)



A STREET-BOY’S POEM

I’M A STREET BOY
MY NAME IS LOVE
WHICH IS THROWN FROM THE EMBRACE
THE OLD CLOTHE ON MY BODY
ALWAYS THE REMEMBERS ME
TO MOTHERS EMBRACING THE HARM
AND THE HOLLOW BRIDGE
WHERE I TOOK SALTER
FROM THE SUN BURNING HOT
AND COLD AIR OF THE NIGHT
CONSULS ME EVERY TIME
FROM THE BED FATE AND SOLITARY
WITH THE BROKEN HEART
I DRAG MY FEET AWAY
INDEED ONLY FOR A HUNGER
AS THEN ME KNOW
THE LITTLE YOU THREW TO ME
AND I TO BE ADDICTING
I GIVE YOU MY UPWARDS PALM
AND YOU CALLED ME A STREET BOY
A LIFE BEGGAR
MY REQUEST OF YOUR PITY
BUT YOU SUPPOSE ME
AS A ROBBER
THEN YOU ARE AFRAID
YOU CATCH ME
AND THROW MY BODY INTO THE DITCH
AT THAT PLACE
I DON’T KNOW
WHO IS MY REAL NAME



MOTHEREARTH’S POEM

I’M WIDE LAND
I’M UNDERLAYER OF OCEAN
I’M GATE
I’M HARBOUR OF FOREIGN SHIPS
I’M AIR
I’M THE FRESH BREASTING
WHICH MAKES LENGTHEN THE AGE
I’M WATER
WHICH IS NEVER DRY
I’M PLANTS
I’M SILK CARPET
I’M FLOWER WITH ITS VARIOUS
I’M THE ENORMOUS MOUNTAINS
I’M THE STARS LIGHTENING ON THE SKY
I’M THE WHITE CLOUD OF SOUL LOVING
I’M THE SONG OF THE PHILOSOPHERS
I’M RAINBOW
I’M LONG OF THE LONG
I’M GOODS
I’M TREASURES ALL OF NEEDED
I’M POLE
I’M GENERATION
I’M WOMB
I’M BLOOD
I’M YOUR MOTHER MILK
INDONESIA
I’M A MOTHER
MY CHILDREN
I ASK YOU WHY
WHY DO YOU LEAVE YOUR DEDICATION?
LISTEN!
NOW
I’M THE HOME
WHICH YOU HAVE LEFT
THE YARD
WHICH ISN’T PRESERVING
THE LOVE
WHICH YOU HAVE CURSED
THE HEART
WHICH YOU HAVE ANNOYED
THE SOUL
WHICH YOU HAVE VIOLATED
THE LIFE
WHICH YOU HAVE OMITTED
NOW
I BECOME A NIGHT
THAT WILL BE SO MUCH SILENT
IN THE TIRE OUT WAITING
OF YOUR COMING BACK



A HUNGER FACE OF LIFE

LONELY ON A VAGUELY PATHWAY
AT A DARK AND SILENT NIGHT
WHEN WAS DECEIVING BY
THE TRACKS OF THE LIFE TRICKS EXPRESSION
SUDDENLY CAME SOMEONE FROM THE DARK
CAUGHT ME ON MY WAY
WITH A POINTED KNIFE
TOWARD MY HEART
“WHERE ARE YOUR HEART, LEVER AND LUNGS?
GIVE ALL TO ME, OR YOU WILL DIE WITHOUT THEM.
QUICK!”
HE THREATENED ME AND PRESSURE MY BODY
AT A BIG HIGH WALL
THEN
BEFORE I HAD A CHANCE TO CHOOSE
SUDDENLY HE HAS STUBBED ME VERY VERY DEEP
BEGAN TO OPEN AND BRING OUT
ALL OF MY BREAST CONTENTS
THEN ATE THEM ALL GREEDILY
UNTIL FINISH WITHOUT REMAINDER
“OH, MY GOD!” I SAY IN MY HEART WITH PITY
THEN I SAY TO HIM, “IF YOU NEED MORE,
I’LL GIVE YOU OTHERS!”
HE LOOKS UP TO ME
BY THE FLASH LIGHTENING
I CAN SEE HIS FACE
SURELY AS A HUNGER AND THIRST
OF THE NATURAL LIFE EXPRESSION
IN A LONG DRY SEASON
“NO! YOU’RE THE LAST THAT PROVE
MOST OF PEOPLE HAVE ONLY HEART,
LIVER AND LUNGS IN THEIR BREAST
BUT HAVE NO LOVE.
SO THEN, MANY PEOPLES DIE
WITH HEART, LIVER AND LUNGS WITHOUT LOVE”
SUDDENLY HE SAID LOUDLY AND CLEARLY
AND I WAS WONDERING.
WITH FALLING RAIN
HE DISAPPEARED IN THE DARKNESS
AND BACK I WAS ALONE
IN THAT WAY
DOING THE LIFE
WHILE WRITING POEM



A SMALL BIRD WITH ITS SWEET DREAM

A SMALL BIRD
WITH ITS SWEET DREAM
GET AWAY FROM THE HABITAT
AND COME NEAR TO THE EAGLE NEST
WHICH IS BUSY
IN FEEDING ITS LITTLE'S
THOSE ARE TOO TALKY AND GREEDY
“HI, MY GOOD FRIEND, EAGLE.
WHAT CAN I HELP YOU?” SAID
THE SMALL BIRD KINDLY
“THERE IS. YOUR HEAD IS
DELICIOUS FOOD FOR THEM”
SAY THE EAGLE IN A HURRY



RABBIT FOUND A MAP

ONE DAY THERE WAS A RABBIT
WHICH HAS JUST LOOSED FROM
THE LION HUNTING
SURPRISE AND AFRAID
BECAUSE ON THAT DAY
HE FOUND A ROLL OF CLOTHE
WHICH AFTER OPENED
ACTUALLY WAS A MAN DRAWING MAP
LYING DOWN WITHOUT SENSE
AT THE DARK AND SILENT SHRUBBERY
“OH, MY GOD!” SAID THE RABBIT FEARLY
“IF TODAY THE MAN LIFE DRAWING MAP
FOUND LYING DOWN WITHOUT SENSE AT THE
DARK AND SILENT SHRUBBERY I LIVED...
WHAT ISN’T IT MEANING THAT YESTERDAY OR
WHEN, THERE WAS SCIENTISTS HAVE EVER
LOST THEIR MAP?”
THEN
HE RAN AWAY AS FAST AS HE COULD
AND RETURNED TO HIS FAMILY IN PEACE


THE TRENDY CLOTHES

IN ORDER TO BECOME TRENDY
IN A BIG FUTURE PARTY WHICH HIS NAME
IS WRITTEN AS A FORMAL PERSON INVITATION
GOES SOMEONE TO THE CLOTHING SHOP
AND SEEKS THE CLOTHES HE LIKES
“WHICH CLOTHES DO YOU WANT, SIR?
THIS OR THAT? COLOR? DON’T WORRY!
QUITE COMPLETE HERE
YOU CAN CHOOSE AS YOU WANT
OR, PUT IT ON.
THIS WHICH IS TRENDY NOW?” SAYS THE SERVER
WHISPERINGLY AND GIVES THE MAN
ONE OF THE CLOTHES SHE MEANS
“THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
BUT WHATEVER IS TRENDY NOW,
IT WILL PASS AND TO BE WORN.
NOW, I WANT THE FUTURE CLOTHES TRENDY.
IS THERE?” ASK THE MAN TO THE POINT
BUT THERE IS NO ANSWER



A FROG IN THE NIGHT

WHILE THE PREFECT MOON

WHICH IS DRIPPING WET OF TEARS
ASKED FOR ABOUT ITS SMALL

THROUGH OUT THE WORLD AGAIN

RICE FIELD’S POEM

I’M RICE FIELD
HUMUS AND THE MATTERS OF FERTILITY
THOSE ARE FAR
FROM THE BALANCING AND CONTINUATION
SUFFER OF MY SOUL EVERY TIME
FOR THE FLAME OF ADDICTION
WHICH IS BURNED BY THE FATE
OF DRUNKENNESS AND DEPENDENCE
NOW I DON’T UNDERSTAND
THE LOWS SOUND OF BUFFALO
AND OF CRYING THE FARMERS
MY SALIVA IN MY GULLET IS TOO BITTER
TO GROWS UP THE LEAFS
AND SEND THE EARS OF RICE
EVEN MOULDLY THE HOPE
THAT HAS COMPULSED EVERYDAY
WITHOUT FUTURE AS THE DEW OF TREASURES
FOR YEARS NAILED MY SEASONS
ON THE HOT FATE AND SILENCE THE GRASS
WHILE
YOU ONLY CAN REGRET
WHAT HAS HAPPENED TODAY
WITH YOUR EYES STILL CLOSED
STOP!
OR YOUR TIME IS GOING TO COME
AND YOU’LL HARVEST THE LOUSES AND FLIES
IF YOU WANT



THE NEGLECTED FIELD

THE FALLING LEAFS OF SPRUCEFIR
MADE THE NEGLECTED FIELD
BURNING BEHIND YOU
FULL OF THIRTY AND HUNGRY EXPRESSIONS
SHIVER OF DRY GRASS ON THE STEPPE
ROLLED ITS HEART
TO ENDURE THE BITTERS

NOT THE HOT DUSTY
WAS DREAMING FOR
BUT THE FRESH OF THE LIFE WATER
TO LEAD
IN LOVE AND PEACE
IN THE NICHES OF HEART
IN THE HOLLOWS OF SOUL

NOT KNOW
OR NOT WANT TO KNOW
THAT THE CRYING OF SILENT
ON THE STONES HILL
MADE POEM WITH TEARS
AND THE BROKEN LONGING
OF MEDICINE



THE SILENT POEM OF THE RIVER WATER RUSTLING

THIS IS THE LAMENT SOUNDS
OF THE RIVER WATER RUSTLING
IN THE CORNER OF THE VILLAGE
NOT GHOST
OR THE SATAN'S SONG OF THE NIGHT
WHICH IS USUALLY BUZZED
IN THE FAIRIES HEART
THE COMPASS HAS TURNED AROUND
TO THE LEFT
AT THE WIDE PLACE
OF THE WORLDLY BRIGHTENING
LIKEWISE WITH THE RELIGION CONFESSORS BEHAVE
THEY WERE LONG FROM THE HEAVEN WAY
WHO KNOWS
WHERE WILL THEY WANT TO BRING OUT THE PEOPLES
THEN
WHAT WILL HAPPEN ON THIS FULL OF SIN WORLD?
WHEN THEY THREW THEMSELVES DOWN
INTO THE DARK MIRE
MY HEART WAS STUBBED
BUT I DON’T KNOW EITHER
WHY THE DRUM IN MY HEART
IS SILENT


ON THE NOISE SEA

ON THE NOISE SEA
NO BODY CAN'T EVADE
CARRIED AWAY AND SINK
OR PERSIST AND THROWN OUT
SAME BITTER AS BURIED
IN SILENT WITHOUT CHOICE
BUT ABOVE ALL OF THOSE
ONLY THE FAITH CAN BE SURVIVE
WITH ITS GLISTENING FUTURE


THE HIDDEN PEOPLE

people changed their way
and made pointed of themselves
they buried the only one name
in the silence sky
for the flesh
they sold their owing life

in the burial ceremony
faces were white of powder
so was of the clothes
white and clean
as white and clean
as the heaven inhabitants

with this manners to :
they built their palace
as if God was sleep
and would not drag them
in to the true court

the poem was written
in the blinding of the full blind
only by of your light, my Lord
i could see their shadows hidden
met me in your way
like a bat overcame the sun



STICK

suddenly you came
when i was taking care
for my wife and children
you carried a basket of dreams
in the strange breath of perfume' smell
and you asked me like a whisper of wind
"where do i must spread flowers
for the grave of a late poetist"?

i showed you a stick
and that the corner was a place
of his salvation choice
but you said, "oh no!
it isn't the right grave for him!"

"if it was what you wanted,
spread your flowers away
may to the sky
perhaps the wind
will bring its to his address",i said
but you didn't agree,
"no! not anywhere, here it is
in the loves land
that called heart of hearts"

i was affected
i looked at to the stick
where it leaned in stiffening

"will you be growing?"
i said in my heart
for years cornered in my silent room
only of the whisper of wind
passing in a moment
then disappeared soon
by my children crying



THE GRACE EVIDENCE

land cried
thrown far from heaven
from dream of sweat and humus
made the white jasmine neglected
lived in loveless life

land full of blood
suffering hardship in the rotten injures
it' smell steamed up to the sky
created the black fog
in the darkness way

here
in my silent home stay, my Lord
i testified the strange days
without roses without jasmines
as black was this land dirtied by
the poison of flesh and worldly life

GURIT SEPI KUMRIWIKING BANYU KALI

GURIT SEPI KUMRIWIKING BANYU KALI

GURIT KANGGO ADHI
Daktampa saka pecahaning cahya
Rembulan tiba ana sela-selaning gegodhongan
Lagu lan swaramu serak dhimas
Apa ana kabar kang wigati

Ing ngarep iki wit jati gegrumbulane
Suket temanceping kahanan
Mangka kita kudu lumaku lan dhemen nyipati
Gambar-gambar dlamakan ngisor-ngisoring
Garis paugeran

Aja wedi dhimas
Kembang-kembang iki duwekmu
Cikben beda
Cikben urip dasaning nama
Marga tanpa beda
Kaendahan iki sasat mung pangimpen
Ngayawara
Lan Negara kita urip
Saka rupa rupaning rupa

GURIT KANGGO ADHI II
Kanggo ngiring lumakuning dina-dina
Kanthi rembulan minangka kanca
Kanggo nitipake raga samangsa sayah
Ginelut ombakingurip kang sangsaya santer
Dakkira kita wus kelangan daya dhimas
Kabeh kaya wus katon surem
Mung kari wewayanganning rupa
Kang pating sliwer tanpa swara
Saiba sepine jagad kesrakat iki

Kaya kang wus dadi sesurupan kita
Pancen ana kaca wewatesing kahanan
Antarane impen lan kasunyatan padha dene
Adoh lan nuwuhake pisatronan
Tumrap sijine
Nging uga aja sumelang dhimas
Merga kamukten iku
Mung geguritan bungkik
Lan banget kesrakate
Ana ing jagading kautamen
Saiki ra perlu adoh
Merga tangan-tangan kita iki
Isih tetep setya
Rak dhimas isih kelingan ta
Yen panjenengane iku tansah sumadya
Ja rumangsa isin dhimas
Jalaran tumetesing luh kuwi dhewe
Tresna kang sampurna
Mula nangisa
Sajege si adhi kersa

GURIT KANGGO ADHI III

Wus dakpasangake wulan
Lan lintang-lintang
Ing langit kasepenmu
Dhimas
Sunaranaklayan kasetyan lan kawignyan
Apadene kaprecayan

Urip iki mati
Tanpa kasangsaran
Nanging kasangsaran kuwi uga mati
Tanpa urip lan pepati

Esuk mara dipecaki
Kinanthi kidung purnaning ratri
Dening Bambang Edy Supriyono
Panyebar Semangat No.43, 26 oktober 1985



GURIT KANGGO ADHI IV

Sawise udan sumilak langit katon
Putih lir salju
Nanging carita isih dawa adhiku
Isih ana prahara liya kang bakal teka
Merga ya pancen ngono kuwi
Tembanging alam donya kasunyatan urip iki

Lan mesthi
Kita ora kuwawa anyelaki
Ana kalane tangis njejuwing ati iki
Pindha wengi kang tanpa lintang
Warna ireng lan kasepen dadi kekanthine
Nanging aja pisan-pisan kandheg mung
Tumeka semono dhimas
Merga crita liya isih nunggu girang guyumu

Beda itungane angka-angka
Kang sarwa bias kaentha
Guyu lan tangis mokal kaetung wektune
Nanging kita seje sabangsane urip
Kang mung mbujung gumebyaring kadonyan
Kita ngreti sangkan paran
Malah uga tumrap sesangune
Mula kuwi tansah digedhea ing athi

Ana rina ana wengi tumraping kahanan papa iki
Semono uga garising lelakon
Kang tansah kita pecaki mung wae panjalukku adhi
Aja lali memuji
Tansaha densukuri
Sadhengah kang wus kawedhar
Lan kaparingake jroning urip iki

Menawa isih ana dina esuk
Kapacak ngareping mripat
Lan kita ana esem kanggo sangu
Nglabuhi sakabehing pangangen-angen
Becik kita jumangkah
Nadyan mung cilik
Lan kanthi mbaka sapecak
Urip dudu impen
Lan pungkasane
Kita mesthi lumaku
Luru lan luru
Nganti ketemu

CATETAN PUPUT TAUN

Isih ana mendung
Dhuwuring langit sepi
Kanggo ngaca
Tumindaking sesanti
Anggayuh budi utami
Nandur wiji
Karaharjaning negari


GURIT MLErIT SAKA LANgIT

Mendah jero ngawiyate
Rembulan tipis

Siji parane



GURIT SEPI KUMRIWIKING BANYU KALI

Iki suara angluh kumriwiking banyu kali
Ing pojok desa
Dudu memedi
Utawa tembanging setan setan wengi
kang tansah
Dumeling ana kupinging para widadari
Enering kiblat wus diencengake
Nlusup mengiwa
Tumuju papan amba gebyaring donya
Mengkono uga arum swaraning para
Ngagama
Kabeh kaya wus padha suwala
Kliwat saka dalaning swarga
Mbuh arep nyang endi maneh bakal
Digawa lunga
Banjur bakal nampa pidana apa
Jagad tuwu kebak dosa
Yen kembang-kembangin desaku
Uga wis padha alum
Katut tiba glangsaran
Ndhepani tlepong-tlepong jaran
Nanging mboh tambur telenging ati iki
Mesthi dadi sepi


TEMBANG KANGGO ADHI

Cik ben dak sanggane lelakon sedhih iki
Angger kowe tetepa ing ati
Rungakna liwat sumiliring angin wengi
Wis mesti dudu tangisku
Karang ra bakal nyimpang
Nadyan ombake rentak
Lan ana prahara ngelak
Jejegna cagaking kaprecayan
Gantungna kabeh kekarepan
Ing pundhakku isih kuwawa ngangkat
Nadyan abota nganti dikaya ngapa pisan
Lambeku tan bakal kendhat
Ngidungake tembanging kasanggupan



GURIT ING POJOK KUTHA

nanging aja kuwatir, Dhimas. Kabeh iya padha
pasang, lan surut, kaya patraping segara. Mung wae pancen
kudu ana bedane, yakuwi kang diarani laku jantraning urip
mung gusti kang andarbeni

rungakna gurit wengi iki nyuwek klambuning

kang tiba tangi rungokna rungakna mbok menawa esuk
enggal bakal teka nggawa crita liya


LAKU LAN KRINGETKU

sewu lintang ing awing-awang
sumunar padhang
pratandha wus gancang
lakune kang sung piwulang

kabeh iki
labuh labeting kang wus swargi
panjenengane Ki Hajar Dewantara
kang minulya

muga lestaria mulya
bangsa kang baut ngronce kembange



CLERING SUMANDHING

dudu Yogya
dudu Jakarta
ana Clering
aku sumandhing

nadyan dumunung
ndhuwuring gunung gamping
nanging tresnaku wis pilih tandhing

anaa Yogya
anaa Jakarta
atiku wis kadhung gandrung
nadyan ing gunung
napasku landhung



MARANG SAWIJINING ASMA

rembulan tumungkul
sepimu uga wungkul
dhi
sliramu arep nyang endi
rina
ketemu Durna
wengi
semampir pundhake Durga
ngasoa
nganti srengengene teka



LAKU

jumurungku
waskithaning urip
ngambah ilining banyu
sumusup mega-mega
ndedel angkasa
ngaras rembulan
ngrenda bumi
ngisep madu
lumebering catur
methik lintang
mggambar segara
ngronce kembang
ngetut lakuning srengenge

sedyaku
resep
sedhep
ngegawang
padhang



WARTA

mega-mega bakal tumenga
mangkono uga
jumangkahe sikil iki
mitra
apa sliramu wis padha pirsa

suket-suket garing
lemah-lemah nela
aweh pepeling
mukti saiki
apa ing mbenjing



TEMBANG PAKUMBARAN

sempoyonging kang nedya lelaku
mapag jumedhuling srengenge lan wulan
ngambah rungkuting dalan
sureming padinan

godhong-godhong rontog
ombak lan watu
nyoblos punjering pandulu



PEDHUT IRENG
peteng nggameng
garising cakrawala
mbuntel bumi nggeseng
suwaliking tembung merdika



LURUNG
lurunge sapa
dadi ara-ara
tan ana katresnan
rerumat jiwa

lurunge sapa
kebak sangkrah
bakal kaobong
dadi langes



MANAWA ANGINE PRAPTA

kaya lembayung kang alum
pucuking angin kang pegat nyawa
sapa kalis bebaya

menawa angine prapta
mitra
sira ana ing endi

wartane wus trawaca
sawangen rikma waja
apa wus sumadya

menawa angine prapta
mitra
sapa wae lena
mula siyaga
dimen waluya



LOWONG TENGAHING MARGA

iki lelakone sapa
sapatemon jroning kasepen
rembugan kanthi ati

endi wektu lestari

tembok-tembok kaku
nyampluk tutuk
kang saya bisu



AMUNG GODHONG

delengen kaya apa endahing pepaes
rinengga busananing kajasmanen
gilap-gilap cahyane mung sagebyaran
tinempah jawah ambyar lan kamuktene

sawangen kaya apa santosaning tuwuhan
tanpa labuh labet mung kanepson congkrah
gawe sangsaya petenging jagad kaimanan
mblasahe godhong-godhong tanpa ugeran

among godhong sliramu wus mangreteni
nanging ya gene tansah kok silep werdine
piwulang sejati engga ngelak lan luwene
suket-suket gawe sureming cahya rembulan

among godhong sawangen kaca benggala
apa kang rinancang dening manungsa
among sawatara nanging kayektene
langgeng ing salawas-lawase



SUTA THiNGLI

suta Thingkli,
tanggaku wetan kali
uripe penekan wit jati
nggantholi thingkli
diuber-uber kuwali
karo polisi hutan
sing tansah nyujanani

suta Thingkli
sebrayat pitu cacahe
saben dina nyranggap njaluk tadhahe
yen begja sega karo tempe
nanging ketela yaw is dadi padatane

ngono uripe mataun blusukan alas jati
wiwit omah-omah biyen nganti saiki
manak nem, lima keri siji mati

suta Thingkli ora ngreti reformasi
ngretine mung alas jati
saiki oleh dikethoki
rina wengi diusungi
ra ana sing ngalang-alangi
sing saya ra dingreteni
sing jaga kok cucul klambi
lha nek ngono aku ya melu ngeli

jan-jane suta Thingkli isih wedi
nadyan sing dijupuki mung rupa thingkli
atine kerep nyela semu ngandhani
jeneng dosa
cilika mesthi nginjeti
lupute ing donya iki
ya mbesuk yen wis mati

mbuh-embuh iki suta Thingkli
bisane mung golek thingkli
weruh thingkli nglera saalas jati
tangane klawean melu njupuki

nadyan mung thingkli
asile pancen mikolehi
terkadang bisa dadi ram-raman sing edi
uga bisa dadi meja kursi utawa lemari
liyane bisa digendheli,
sesuke mesthi diparani sastranadi

kaya wit-witan alum kesiram udan
suta thingkli dadi seger dadakan
bojone saiki wis nganggo mas-masan
anak-anake yaw is pantes melu dolanan

nanging begja ora kena dipeksa
cilaka ora bakal ditungka
wengi-wengi suta Thingkli digawa polisi
jenenge kecathet minangka pangrayah jati

suta Thingkli wong cilik
lungguhe dhingklik mangane sithik
yen apik ra uman becik
yen ala kedumuk dhisik

telung dina ndhekem ing kamar tahanan
ngenteni bojone ngrucat mas-masan
suta thingkli nganti
kaya ra kuwat ambegan
mangka alas panguripane saiki
wis malih dadi lapangan


SASI SANGA SANGA PITU

thingkli kuwi arane pakang jati
kang populer keprungu ing taun
sanga pitu-an ing tlatah nggonku



AMPAK AMPAK

isih kaya nalika padha ngilo kaca
wewangunan maneka warna mung seklepasan
dene mawar kang kok gambar ing buku-buku kuna
tansah seger mecaki dalan-dalan kauripan
apa iki mung pupur
jalaran putiha dikaya ngapa kahanan sayekti lumpur
lan wis kang wus kadhung tumama
ngregem panguwasa telenging palimengan
nandur prahara nyebar pepati
cengkoronging lemah-lemah iki
wus kadayan pageblug
saka letheging reka culika amemba
srengenge nyunar padinan
kaya lawa-lawa kang nglimpe tentreming wengi
nyigar kasepen ngrokoti sempaling ati
mangkono langite wus ngampak-ampak
ireng njanges wulu gagak
adoh saka entering srengenge
mung ruwet renteng sangsaya rame
ubaling awu panas kaya naga ngelak mangsa
lali purwa lan duksina
mung gebyaring pepaes raga aluming kasukman
pating blulung nasak tatanan

pepayu kang wus densaguhi
srana antebing ati
buyar saiki dadi ampak-ampak
medhot sihing langit
medhot ilining kali
katresnan



PETUNGAN DINA ESUK

jebul kang karanti wus mili kawuri
kaya ngono wijiling panggagas lan
kuciwamu saben jumedhul srengenge ing
punthuk impen
mangka kekidungan lan kekudangan isih
panggah sumimpen werdi
banjur apa darunane esuk biyen lan saiki
pepesthen pancen dudu darbekmu
esuk lan sore mung wewayangan trep
gumantining wektu lan kahanan
mangka kabeh mubeng seser kaya gangsingan
biyen kecekel saiki kelangan lan esuke
gawe gagragan anyar
ana ngendi dununge kalanggengan lan
kamulyan sejati

dadia jati kang mesthi dumadi
kaya ngono swaranig asepi sela-selaning
dongamu

nintingi sari kawuri njumputi dina esuk
ginaris suryaning srengenge pinacak
padhang sureme ariki
nanging iman ndayani sakabehing pangarep-arep



TEGAL CENGKAR

gogroging ron cemara
nggurit tegal cengkar ing burimu
sarwa ngelak lan luwe
suket-suket garing nglinthing ati
nyidem perihe

dudu awu panas kaimpi-impi
nanging segering banyu kauripan
ngilekake werdining katrisnan
lan karukunan
ing sungapaning ati
leng-lenging kajiwan

ora ngreti apa ora pengin ngreti
jumeriting sepi ing sela-selaning
watu padhas
nggurit tegal cengkar
kanthi tetangis ngelak usada


GRENJETING KAPRACAYAN

kaya wiji aku kasebar ing lemah iki
tanpa bisa milih ngendi
tuwuhku winengku tulisan
datan aweruh regeman
sugih lan miskin
sumimpen angin
suka bendune lemah
wus wutah tinitah
mung dayaning kapracayan
ndayani otot-ototku
ngranggeh sari-sarining kauripan
tumetes srana kringet lan pandonga
nadyan rojah-rajeh tetatuku
ginebag ri lan watu
dakulu
dakguyu
dakgawa mlayu daksidhem kenceng
papa sudraku
daktintingi
dakpethiki
dakgawe aji


BENER LUPUT ALA LAN BECIK

yen
bener kuwi sing ora luput
lan ala kuwi
sing ora becik

saiki
sing bener bisa luput
lan sing ala bisa becik
sing ala ditampa
sing becik ditampik
gumantung dhuwit lan cacah
dhuwit sithik bener sithik
cacah sithik becik sithik
cekake kari sapa sing muni
lan sapa sing mbiji

ya gene bener luput
ala lan becik
dhewe-dhewe

kejaba sifate dhewe
pancen ora bisa diworake
mbok menawa wis dadi jamane
manungsa gawe kraton dhewe-dhewe

nging aja nglokro
sing ora kaconggah
nunggua pambijine Gusti Allah





PARI LAN EKONOMI

saya mentes pari
saya nggenah konjeme ing bumi

saya mentes ekonomi
saya nggenah sunguting ati



GERABAH LAN TANGGA

gerabah kuwi bala pecah
yen wis kadung pecah tanpa paedah

lha yen tangga

tangga kuwi sadulur celak
yen wis kadhung celak
wani neranyak

lha kok ngono kuwi
ya mbuh kuwi



WEK WEK WEK

wek wek wek
bebek siji wek
bebek loro wek wek
bebex telu wek wek wek

aku seneng
bebek-bebekku saiki
wis pinter wek wek wek

kabeh dha muni wek wek wek
ora ana sing pethok pethok

WOT

jare wakul
kok dandang
jare konthul
kok dhandhang
(sore dele esuk tempe
ya gene apa ra is jamane)

wong ngalah klumah
wong jujur ajur
wong adil mbrindhil
wong bener kunyer
(kok kojah apa ra wis anjrah)

ana rina ana wengi
ana dina iki ana dina mburi
ora ana pedhoting ati
tumrap wong iman kang sejati

saiki wektune kabeh ngranti
pambiji lan teruse

ora bisa diselaki
(mula sing warang dadia bregas)
sing weruh dadia wanuh
sing ngreti dadia saya titi)



SARAPAN

mbok wis trimaa wae
kopi letheg kanggo nguntapake
rasa gela karo ngenteni
pletheking srengenge lia

(kabeh muni wis jamane
karo tata tata ngunekake bendhe
kaya kaya wis rila ing sarandune
nedya kaabdekake)

sarapan Koran merdika
karo mangan tivi njeron Negara
weteng iki rasane katutan pecahan kaca
nanging kepriye ya
wong urip kok dipeseso

aku isih seneng tela
timbang sega ususku lara



KEMMBANG

kembangku wingi sempal
jare nguwong pancen wis pesthine
aku moh takon mundhak ketriwal
dakulu dhewe rasa gelaku
nadyan pait rasane

dina iki aku nedya bali nyambangi
kembang-kembangku ing taman iki
nanging ra daknyana-nyana
atiku jebul saya nelangsa


JAMAN

kaya suarane grobag sapi kang sineret
waton mung sesisih rodhane
(nalika aku isih cilik biyen
grobag sapi rodhane nganggo wesi)
dina dina glodhagan ngantemi watu sadalan-dalan
awune kumebul nggeghana
ngiring lakun para demonstran karo ngacungake kepelan
lan gendera kaswargan
kambi muni :
wenehna bumi langitku
presis patrape wong ngoyak macan ing jaman penjajahan
sing pancen kranjingan
utawa ing jaman ngrebut bali kamardikan
sing mula pancen entek-entekan
iki jaman reformasi
ngono kandane sing ngarani
karo ngarep-arep tatanan lan tataran
urip sing saya mundhak aji
anehe sing thukul saiki
akeh wong kendel keburu wani
idu geni paribasane
sakecap muni
kobar dami sanagri

jaman iki akeh wong sengit keburu apit
apite nggaret jarit
mung jalaran werna klambi
akeh wong kang kacepit
ja kandha sapa-sapa
ra padha ja takon dosa
wong pinter gawe bebener
sing bener di unyer
benere ditaker dhewe
sing saya gawe surem
jagade diregem
mung sagegem
liyane dibogem
yen prelu digawe apem
akeh wong nyembah trekah lan krenah
temah lakune bubrah
bantene mblasah
akeh wong saguh keguh weruh tan wanuh
waton sempyuh datan mitambuh
biyuh-biyuh
akeh wong klumah jalaran pitenah
lan ora gelem nggo trah
wong mbabah sewayah-wayah
wong mati tanpa pangaji
ironis ironis
akeh wong lungguh manis
nadyan pagiris anjrah gawe tetangis

he ati he ati
buntelen tatumu nganggo kain mori
sing yekti mori
tambanana lelaramu
nganggo sabdajati
sing yekti suci

he jiwa he jiwa
biraten tangismu
nganggo donga sing segara

he raga he raga
tampanana sekabehing panandhangmu
kanthi legawa sing ndirgantara
sabisa-bisa tetepa setya ndedonga
suwunna pangapura tumrap sing wis padha lena
nyebut asmaNe kanggo nikksa sesame
aja lirwa ngabekti ing papan suci
awakmu Baiting Roh Suci
yen dipalangi sengiting ati
sidhemen sing premati
nganthi pungkase jaman iki
merga sabegja-begjane sing lali
isih begja sing eling lan ngimani
pangadilaning Gusti kang makuthani
mring titah kang tulus yekti
sarto kang njegurake geni paniksa jati
marang sok wonga kang nyebar piala
lan dhemen memateni
ya mung kuwi ngwekani jaman iki



KEKERANING AJI

kabeh iki werdi
kabeh iki ora ana sing mangkreteni
kabeh iki during mesthi
kabeh iki isih manggon ing bumi iki
kabeh iki ra wurunga bakal kabesmi
kabeh iki mung kahanan sawetara wanci
kabeh iki ora ana sing lestari
kabeh iki mung sakeplasan aweh pangaji
kabeh iki ing astaNe sing maha Gusti
kabeh iki mung pangajab adrenging ati
kabeh iki isih kudu ngliwati coba lan uji
kabeh iki mung kari ngenteni
tekane jaman sing ora bisa disumurupi
nganti kabeh iki mbesuke lagi bakal
bisa dimangreteni apa paedahe tumindak
katresnan lan kabecikan ing jagad raya
wegung sesami iki



PANGLIPUR

yen wengi-wengimu binuntel kasepen jalaran
koncatan cahyaning rembulan kang lagi ndadari
ngelingana uga yen esuk isih ana dina
padhang kanthi srengenge kang luwih gedhe
dayane kanggo nguripake bali sureming
pangangen-angen sing wis nglinthing wengi

mangkono uga manowo lemah sing kok pidak
nanchepake ri bandhil ing dlamakaning
sikilmu sarta langit cakrawalaning uripmu
siniram awu klawu temah ndadekake perihing mripatmu
aja kebacut gela sarta kesusu ngira
yen kabeh iku mau ngalamati puput curesing
pangimpenmu bab keadilan lan kamardikaning uripmu
jalaran ing jagad liya kang wus kokantebi
kanthi pracaya
sakabehe iku mau bakal bisa kok tampa
kanthi sampurna



KAMARDIKAN
kamardikan iku sega pulen jangan santen
kamardikan iku bocah cilik
ing pangkone bapa biyunge
kamardikan iku prawan pitulasan
sing lagi pisan kuwi krungu tembung katresnan
saka priya sir-sirane
kamardikan iku wohing semangka
sing dipangan ing mangsa ketiga
kamardikan iku kupu sajodho
sing lagi iber-iberan ing sela-selaning kembang
kamardikan iku banyu es
ing gorokaning wong kang lagi ngorong
kamardikan iku wulan lan lintang-lintang
ing langit wengi kang peteng lan sepi
kamardikan iku udan pisanan
sawising mangsa ketiga kang dawa
kamardikan iku angin sing midhit
sangisoring wit-witan mbregat
kamardikan iku madu asli
sing lagi tumetes saka talane
kamardikan iku manuk-manuk
sing ninggal paturon kanthi kairingan
jumedhuling srengenge padinan

kamardikan iku enak
kamardikan iku ayem tentrem
kamardika iku nengsemake
kamardikan iku seger
kamardikan iku ngresepake
kamardikan iku endah
kamardikan iku nyes lan nges
kamardikan iku luhur lan mulya
kamardikan iku nglegaake dhadha
kamardikan iku manis
kamardikan iku . . .
gorokanku muni mak cleguk
