DARI MARITIM YANG TERBUKA




Setelah lima hari kita berhasil menyatukan cerita-cerita tentang nyamuk yang hinggap di kebun sayur, akhirnya kita rampungkan keinginan-keinginan untuk berbelanja puisi pada sebuah swalayan yang berisik dan menyukai monopoli rumahrumah yang singgah dari negeri yang jauh. Beberapa bintang yang pernah dituliskan melalui sebuah kertas pembungkus permen karet bermotif kupu-kupu, kita simpan baik-baik dalam celana panjang yang kehabisan warna. Setiba musim dingin menurunkan salju merah dan sakura yang tumbuh di pinggiran ranting, tombol-tombol televisi terasa begitu sulit dikendalikan. Sederetan menu sulit terbaca, hingga daftar kenapa berjumlah begitu banya ketimbang mengapa.

Kemudian pukulan-pukulan dari ujung sisir dihantamkan ke lengan kita untuk menciptakan suara-suara lebam. Pisau-pisau begitu tumpul ketika channel-channel mengambang di air yang bernama. Sepasang wanita yang memanggang roti dengan selai alis-alis yang cukup untuk digunting, mengaku telah membereskan ikat-ikat rambutnya dengan sebotol sampo yang tumpah dan berserakan.

Kita akan mengatakan praktis adalah cara paling tepat untuk menghancurkan puisi-puisi yang gagal bertahan sembilan bulan. Kandungan dihargai dengan harga cacian dan murah. Hingga kain dan sebuah canting memiliki banyak bensin untuk melesat,

Kepompong dari sudut tangan kita yang menggemgam remoute control
Menyalakan mesin keheranan,
Menjadi peluk ... peluk dan sayang

What Does Friend Mean?

Before asking about what does friend mean, let's sit, ask, reflect, and be honest. How well we treated ourselves so far? Did we rest in an eight solid hour? Did we eat healthy food? Did we train our muscles? Did we respond to things around us with tranquility to gain the bigger picture? Did we respect ourselves with kindness and genuineness? Were we dare enough to say no when things weren't our cups of tea? 

Act of Service

Several times I asked my fiance why he rarely gave me flowers, chocolate, cake, and other things related to sweet things linked to Valentine's Day. And I think I got the answer now. I love to observe people, even somehow my awareness gone with no trace lol. I think it was rooted from his culture as well. He's patient enough to do house chores even if he had a lot to prepare for his works. Several times I went to his house, and I was amazed by how clean and neat it was. He has no housekeeper to assist him doing those stuff, he did it by himself. Tried to wipe my finger on his cabinet or tv, and I found nothing. You know, when we cooked together, he didn't ask and force me to help. He needed me to just watch him dancing while cooking, listen to him singing song he composed by himself, and to show off how he seasoned the food so it would taste incredibly delicious. He also taught me how to take care of white blouse and T-shirt effortlessly. Unfortunately, since I had a lot on ...
