Where do you live?
you mean where I reside?
On this beautiful forsaken earth
I have seen many sins in fellow citizen's inside
I have my pride
but I wanna confess
and it is for 150% a yes
that in my inside's hearth
I have many more sins,
much more than your rational would believe
although I am an evangelist
not certain a bliss
but that was my beloved Mum's wish
I dared not to refuse her
since I am an obedient girl
of course at school a rebel
but never for my dearest Mum
after having graduated
exactly three years after date.
I must confess
that I possess much more inner spirit now
more patience than before
more love and care than I ever owe
Ahok was blamed for blasphemy
that Islamic group lied constantly
till they got him in prison
such saddest tidings
am still humming my love songs
even though pained long time ago
am looking for peace while conversing to
my genius bro before he would close his golden window
my heart leaps up with strongest sense
his caring soul did never offend
i feel home in our parental house
nine days closest to his loving heart
i feel truly blessed as his younger sis
I do realize that's God greatest bliss....

AHOK is The former mayor of Jakarta-Raya, the first person elected from chinese descent, a christian, but certain Islam group in Jakarta
assumed that he has insulted the Kur'an. But this was not true, this group just wanted him out of the Government. Jealousy is the name
of this game. Ahok "lost" the case and is imprisoned eversince.
All folks of Indonesia know that this is not honestly done. The judge who had done the case, is replaced to Bali and Ahok is transported from Cipinang jail to the Jakarta prison. The government was afraid of a civil war in Jakarta, since Ahok (a nickname for a more beautiful name)has many followers throughout Indonesia.
You must know, the present President of Indonesia is a best friend of Ahok and both are not corrupt. This president is the first one who is not corrupt and Indonesia is now building a bright future under the leading of Ir. Jokowi. May he be elected again in the next presidential election
Thank you so much for your caring response. Ahok will not let himself elected again, he will not come back to the Indonesian politics. He has cleaned the rivers and canals in Jakarta from every dirt, but within a shortest time all is dirty again.
