Dear Representatives (Don'T Be Sad Indonesia) Poem by Sari Mavi

Dear Representatives (Don'T Be Sad Indonesia)



Dear representatives
I know not all representatives of the people involved
I only speak to those who feel themselves honored

Your eyes are open but they do not see
Your ears are useless because they have been blocked by dirt your soul
Even your own conscience was, you could not hear it

Your mouth muttering incantations like a shaman who lost-charms
Mechanism your brain running like a madman
Your heart had been frozen (except for the sheer pleasure!)

Representatives who felt that he was honored
You are afraid of whom?
God? .. No! Humanity.. Not really. Then?
My guess is that you are afraid of your worldly lust

Representatives who feel themselves honored
You should be damned, because it betrayed the people
Speaking as if god savior
Yet your words no longer sacred

Representatives who felt great
Regret has always come more slowly a few minutes later
Leaving your family with both hands tied
Do you still think of you as honorable representatives of?
