Living In The Years Of Non-Corruption
LIVING IN THE YEARS OF NON-CORRUPTION
written by: Sylvia Frances Chan

The year of living most dangerously
for the society and me
the year of being post-graduated
the Jakarta emotions
my small society and me
it was saturated, seemingly
under the skin, it lived forth
till that civil war exploded
i oft-heard these voices
seven generals trapped in the lion's pit
seven students wrapped in death
no time to mourn
next reign already forlorn
i oft-heard these voices
post-graduated me
the situations saturated, seemingly
under our skin, it lived forth
most rapid thoughts inwrought
the present regiment under this president
we are no dissidents
never seen or be seated in a prison
Hurray! We are living in the years of non-corruption
finally freed from those evil worms
Jokowi & Ahok is our norm
there's freedom of speech at last….
YES! Freedom of Speech at last
but there had occurred unrhyming endings so fast
it started on the 4th of November, or was it December?
Ahok was blamed for insulting the Qur´an
the ultra-Islamic group which increased rapidly
accused Ahok for blasphemy
in the 72 years of Indonesian history
he is the second Governor with a Christian belief
and the first who is of Chinese ancestry, but blasphemy?
I haven´t known that correct explaining
a few Quotes from the Qur´an
you would be blamed for blasphemy,
instantly the fanatic group called the police
everything in details was noticed
tiresome trials had been set
the Indonesian folk had their bet
Ahok lost the case, Cipinang ahead
he has been moved to Jakarta recently
the idol must spend two years on this spread bed….
