Satu Hal Tentang Cinta
I
Suasana rumah sekarang begitu sepi sejak kamu pergi. Aku selalu menantikan kamu pulang, membuka pagar, memasukkan mobil, membuka sepatu, lalu mampir sebentar ke dapur untuk minum, dan setelahnya kamu akan menghampiri kamarku. Sekedar menanyakan bagaimana hariku, sudah mengerjakan tugas atau belum, kabar pacar aku. Pacar imajinasiku.
Seharusnya kamu tahu kalau aku mencurahkan semua perhatian aku...

Batas Langit
Jalan berliku tanpa henti dan terus berliku, tak berujung, hanya bercabang dan berkembang. Mengakar hingga ke dalam. Tak tersentuh, ataukah tidak bisa disentuh?
Terus kususuri, terjatuh, tertatih, hingga melangkah dengan ringan, terkadang riang diiringi dengan tepukan tangan. Berundak, halus, berlubang, menurun, lalu naik, curam, terjal, hingga lurus selama berkilo-kilo.
Kami melangkah dengan...

Howl - Allen Ginsberg →
I I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix, angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night, who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat up smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold-water flats...

I went to a public library/cafe this afternoon, a cozy one of course, I just want to be on my own, a solitude time. Nobody can bother me.
The cafe is known to have comfortable ambiance and good music. Fantastic collection of books, we can read them for free. I chose to sit near the window. Why? So I can see this breathtaking view,
it’s so breathtaking it makes me feel like I’m...

Disco Pigs
I
Baby Runt: And that's when I hear him. And through the naudy and big ears ward, I search after his cry. A cry so lonely it scares me and makes me cry too. And all the sites that we could see they go invisible when we hear each others cries. And that's when the magic it all begin. It begin when the baby Pig and baby Runt, stare through their baby eyes you see. And the crying and screamin'd stop. From that moment we become one, and we need no one else... nobody.

Runt: What's the color of love, Pig?
Pig: What sort of love, love?
Runt: Don't know. But you know the way things, they got a color. I wonder what the color of love is.
Pig: Jesus, Runt. You could read a thousand think books and never know the answer to that quiz.
Runt: It's be a good one to know, ah?
Pig: It'd be brilliant, Runt. It's around here somewhere.

Pig: There you are Runt. That's the Big Blue there.
Runt: All that water, huh?
Pig: Hey it'll all yours Pal.
Runt: Mine, Pig?
Pig: Birday present, init?
Runt: 17 in 17 days on the 17th. I wanna to walk into the sea and never come back. I want the tide to take me out of me, and give me someone different. Maybe for a half hour or so. That's be good wouldn't it Pig?
Pig: D'ya know, they'd make a huge space ship rocket. And take it up to the cosmo shiny stars all twinkle, twinkle. And I'll sit in my saucer and I'll have a good look down on the big, big blue. And there'll be a button called LASER that would blast all the shity bits that you'll see. And I'll fire dat fireball, and I'll fire back down to Cross Haven Beach, knowin dat all dat's left is my room, you room, an a palace that shine out of the pool for the king and queen. Cause that's all that matters, Runt. The rest is just weekday stuff fun.
IV
Pig: I know it has to be stopped, Runt. You're de only ting in my life, Runt.
Runt: I know, Pig. Has to be an end, hey?
Pig: My ending doh, sweetheart.
Runt: And then what?
Pig: Then go, Runt.
Runt: It's blue. Blue is the colour of love.

Denyut
Kepalkanlah jari tanganmu. Pelan lalu genggam erat. Rasakan aliran darah yang sekejap menuju tempat peraduan, di titik tengah telapak tangan. Sudah merasakannya? Mengalirlah ia, sang darah dalam tiap ruas yang bergulir dan pada tiap syaraf.
Kepalkan jari tanganmu, lihatlah bentuknya.

Pompa. Pompa. Pompa.
Kurasakan denyut nadiku melemah. Mataku perlahan menunjukkan penurunan daya tahan tubuh....
