The Jumping Samaritan

Something I've been working on and off (well, mostly off) for the last 9 years.

I can't believe it has been that long.

Here is the excerpt:

THE JUMPING SAMARITAN

When Arastoo, a young man who had lost his idealism, found his best friend dead,  he took the chance to jump through parallel universes to find the reason and himself.

Semalat Ulang Tahun!

Save an Arrow

As I rest my eyes upon her
and present myself to her presence
Cupid appears before me
and lifts up his bow and arrow

You can go home today, I said
Save yourself an arrow, I continued
The thing you want for me
That thing I already am

Rajin Pangkal Meninggal

Dewa Untung dan Dewi Sial

Gak Jadi Lagi Deh...

Verging III: The Subject Is Present

Have you ever felt so present
When all you notice is real time
Without the slightest concept and construct?

I felt it today
I was there
Under the atmosphere
Surrounded by air
Supported by the ground
Covered in bright daylight
Visited by various kinds of sound

I was like the famous salt doll
Inside a vast ocean

Still it amazed me afterwards
For I found something odd
There was no dissolution

I remained a subject
I was still there
Awake and aware
And yet I was everything
