| Di Kawah Sunyi | In the Silent Crater | Poetry |

in poetry •  7 years ago  (edited)

anjing semata menyalak gelap
cahaya satu-satu menari
tersembul di balik perbukitan
menuju ruang berduri
jauh dari kesenyapan berhala

angin membentuk dinding bata
mengurung matahari dengan perkasa
mengirim cahaya ke kawah-kawah sunyi
sesunyi kampung mati
seusai rentetan senjata

Parapat (Sumatera Utara), Sept 2004

Catatan:
Tahun 2004, Aceh masih didera konflik bersenjata. Saya bersama sejumlah jurnalis mendapat undangan untuk mengikuti pelatihan jurnalisme damai di Parapat, Sumatera Utara. Di sana, puisi ini lahir di tengah kecemasan mengenai situasi keamanan di Aceh.


In the Silent Crater

dogs simply barked dark
light one-on-one dancing
poking behind the hills
toward the thorny spaces
far from the silence of idols

the wind forms a brick wall
encircling the sun with mighty
sending light to the craters of silence
as soon as the village died
after a barrage of weapons

Parapat (Sumatra Utara), Sept 2004

Noted:
In 2004, Aceh was still plagued by armed conflict. I along with a number of journalists received an invitation to participate in peace journalism training in Parapat, North Sumatra. There, the poem was born amid concerns about the security situation in Aceh.[]
