blackout.

these are the poems i wrote when sect17 was in the dark because of a blackout. they are in 140 characters or less because i had typed them out on Twitter. 

1.

in this heat i sit and type

illuminated by little light,

i think of possessions i hold dearly

and i shall cherish them forever,

for eternity.

2.

gelap memakan hati

panas menjadi penyeri

nyamuk menyerang tanpa henti.

datang kembali,

wahai elektrik,

ku merindui dirimu.

3.

in darkness wrapped,

victim of mosquito bites,

i sit here quietly,

waiting for light to come.




p.s: electricity, how do we live without you?
