You're Getting Far Away When I Intended To Sleep Poem by Astrajingga Asmasubrata

in somewhere and you want to where
hand slaped away wind on
my face refused looked at you
on twilight, silence made basin
red earth landscaping as a containers for
poetry caught in linguistics rain in the fracture
you increasingly far away runs were I intend to slept

I still sitting, continued to paint
the gray sky as historical events that missed
from the book - rank blood on fleshy fire destroyed
flame in letters - encyclopedias of our
you within the skin by verb trying to qiurky
emotional the presence of dew taro leave's

sky form a curves green voiced
language quibbler take me fallen
I given a space for the nite stay off
when between boundaries the dark and light inline you're

an ambulance drag down sirens sound
to bend morning with similar silence
evanescent memories passing on gaze
outside without you come came out without I
inside - limit your's - between dark and lights
poetry shaping structured the line point's

who I and who you are when play back current time
but our spread the abyss most steep
most in unattainable insect's language
wraping around my tongue and your tongue the word since
throw dictionary to basic silence concaved
poem caught in raining the deepest linguistic fractured
you're far away runs were I intend to slept

(Pondok Bambu, 2016)
