Maria Sudibyo Poems

Lady in red
Your lips, your hair, your gown, your fan
Like red devil rose
Like evening sky
...

Will you come in the promise night
Or have you forgotten me in your mind
The waiting is felt so long
My soul’s flakening
...

Friend?
Foe?
Partner?
Rival?
...

The day I hate rice
Is several rare day in a year
When I don't eat rice
I don't want to eat rice
...

should I come home to the sea
may I follow the jaguar
climbing alone snow and high mountain
and rest there
...

Sometimes you overreact
Sometimes you talk too much
Sometimes you laugh too loud
...

I will blame you my future child
If you forget about the past
And repeat again our same mistake
I will blame you my future child
...

cring, cring
berjatuhan koin-koin
cring, cring
hati si miskin memanggil
...
