Ahmad Arli Hikmawan Poems

Walk among the crowd
Speak normally and loud
Wandering in midday
Step on the sideway
...

Dear Little Brother
Please tell me whether
You did the unthinkable
Going back to the insensible?
...

Humming around the bay
Under a clear sunny day
Walk across the hemisphere
Standing in front of the rear
...

Some say life is like a ship
Sailing in the ocean of acid
A voyage coloured with hardship
A journey filled with bullshit
...

What is wiseness?
Is it indifference?
Reflecting while listening
Listening while healing
...

What you like
I dislike
What you do
I don't do
...

What is that?
That is what
Why's it rye?
That is why
...

Too much of anything
Can't be lacking
Problem solving
But without learning
...

Life is like a flow of a river
Every decision we savor
Will decide where we'll land
What we'll face and how we'll end
...

Waking up at dawn
Stressed and drawn
Enigmatic like clown
Heading out to town
...
