Gold Fever In Jogja!
Hmm, saya sudah kembali dari Jogja! Banyak hal saya dapat disana…sangat banyak bahkan! Mulai dari teori2 per-Marching Band-an sampai insight2 sederhana ketika saya berada di perjalanan, dan di Jogja. Seperti biasa, goresan2 kecil dari sebuah lukisan, lukisan berjudul “Kehidupan” (yayayaya, lagi2 lukisan, saya harap anda tidak bosan!).
Klinik dari Prof.Omar Carmenates selama 2 hari memberikan banyak pelajaran, bermacam pelajaran, bahkan ketika melihat orangnya, kita akan sangat dengan mudah terpesona olehnya. Mr.Omar, begitu dia dipanggil disana, kesan pertama adalah orang yang sangat bersahabat, ramah, murah senyum, menyenangkan. Rambutnya agak cepak, berewok tipis di sekitar mulut, berkulit coklat tanning, badan tegap, tinggi rata2 orang barat (tidak terlalu tinggi saya pikir), senyum ramah, suara yg menyenangkan, umur 29 sudah menjadi professor music di Universitasnya. Namun ketika dia memainkan snare drum, semua langsung berubah, raut mukanya, auranya, seperti seorang tentara yang dikirim ke Vietnam. Saya dan adit mengakui, sampai merinding melihatnya, terlepas dari begitu sempurnanya roll 1/32 pada tempo 180 yang dia mainkan. Orangnya sangat rendah hati, kenapa, karena ketika dia tidak mampu menjawab pertanyaan yang diajukan, dia akan tersenyum dan berkata “I’m sorry, I don’t even know that thing, you can send me an email and see if I can help u”, dia benar2 sangat rendah hati.
Hmm, yaa, sebenarnya sangat banyak hal yang ingin saya ceritakan disini, namun biarkan saya menulisnya dengan baik terlebih dahulu (baik versi saya-struktur bahasa yg kacau, grammar inggris yang bahkan anak kelas 3 SMP dapat melakukan jauh lebih baik, haha). Oke, just give me some time to compile it first, maybe with some photos. Hal2 konyol yang kami lakukan, teman2 baru yang kami dapatkan, sebuah pengalaman kecil yang luar biasa bagi saya ketika saya membuat seorang kakek tersenyum dan saya mulai tahu dari mana saya harus mulai mencari sesuatu yang dinamakan Surga Dunia, dan banyak pengalaman lainnya!
Untuk sementara, sampai disini dulu! Have a great time, life’s too short! Saya sedang mulai mengumpulkan potongan2 puzzle kehidupan yang tercecer di berbgai tempat…
Little Yellow Spider
Devendra Banhart - Little Yellow Spider
One, two, three, four
Little yellow spider, laughing at the snow
Ah, maybe that spider knows something that I don't know
'Cause I'm goddamn cold
Little white monkey, staring at the sand
Well, maybe that monkey figured out something I couldn't understand
Who knows?
Well, I came upon a dancing crab, and I stopped to watch it shake
I said, "Dance for me just one more time
Before you hibernate and you come out a crab cake"
Hey there, little snapping turtle, snapping at a shell
Ah, there's mysteries inside, I know
But what they are I just can't tell for sure
And hey ya, little baby crow, you're looking kinda mean
I think I outta spit before you start letting off your steam
For sure
And hey there, little sexy pig, you made it with a man
And you're got a little kid with hooves instead of hands
And oh, all the animals
All the animals
And hey there, little mockingbird, they sing about you in songs
Ah, where you been? Have you broke a wing?
I haven't heard you in so long
And hey there, little albatross, swimming in the air
Ah c'mon, you know I can't fly
And I, I think we really outta play fair
And hey there, Mr. happy squid, you move so psychadelically
You hypnotize with your magic dance all the animals in the sea
For sure
And oh, all the animals
All the animals
And hey there, Mr. morning sun, what kind of creature are you?
I can't stare, but I know you're there
Goddamn, how I wish I knew
And hey there, Mrs. lovely moon, you're lonely and you're blue
It's kinda strange, the way you change
But then again, we all do too

Benarkah ini saya??
Tiba2 di kereta jd kepikiran, saya bener2 pengen tau, saya orang yg seperti apa sih? Apa sih yang pengen saya lakuin? Apa yang berharga buat saya? Dan lainnya…tapi saya bingung harus mulai dari mana, jadi saya memutuskan, untuk memulainya dari segi Astrologi…yup, saya adalah seorang Cancer, si kepiting, yang dikenal sensitive…tapi sensitive yang seperti apa? Setelah mencari, saya menemukan beberapa hal, mungkin yang saya masukkan disini lebih cenderung hal2 positif mengenai Cancer, yang negative biar menjadi bahan renungan saya…here we go!
1. It can range from the timid, dull, shy and withdrawn to the most brilliant, and famous Cancerians are to be found through the whole range of human activity. It is a fundamentally conservative and home-loving nature, appreciating the nest like quality of a secure base to which the male can retire when he needs a respite from the stresses of life.
2. Nest for a Cancerian is a place which belongs to the family rather than existing as a showcase to impress visitors.
3. For them there is a time to socialize and a time to be solitary, and this is part of the apparent contradiction in their nature.
4. Outwardly they can appear formidable - thick-skinned, unemotional, uncompromising, obstinately tenacious, purposeful, energetic, shrewd, intuitive and wise, sometimes with a philosophical profundity of thought verging on inspiration.
5. Their intimates, however, may see a very different character, one with a sympathetic and kindly sensitivity to other people, especially those they love. They are able to identify with the situations of others because of the keenness of their imaginations.
6. They are often over-imaginative and prone to fantasy, sometimes trying to shape their lives to fit some romantic ideal. They are appreciative of art and literature, and especially of drama, where the spectacle and ebb and flow of action and feeling particularly excite them. They may themselves possess considerable literary, artistic or oratorical talent.
7. If they can reconcile the personal conflict of their urge to be outgoing with the reserve that causes them to withdraw into themselves, then at best they can inspire a generation, especially the youthful part of it, by their idealism. A job in which they can express this, and in which they can do well, would be as a leader in a youth organization.
8. In their personal relationships they are mentally a mixture of toughness and softness, often emotional and romantic to the point of sentimentality in their fantasies.
9. Their first loyalty remains to spouse and family, of whom they regard themselves as the protector. Both Cancerian man and woman love unreservedly, giving much and asking little in return. one of the most important lessons they have to learn is how to receive gracefully.
10. Cancerians have a retentive memory, particularly for emotionally laden events which they can recall in detail for years afterwards. they are strongly governed by childhood memories and since they live intensely in the past in memory and in the future in imagination.
11. The Cancerian has many potential faults. They can be untidy, sulky, devious, moody, inclined to self-pity because of an inferiority complex, brood on insults (very often imagined).
12. they can be good journalists, writers or politicians, though in this last capacity they are more likely to remain in the background rather than attain prominent positions of power.
13. The romantic side of their natures make them enjoy grubbing about in places where exciting discoveries may be made (old stamp collections in attics, etc.), and if they can do this professionally as a secondhand dealer or specialist in antiques, they will be happy. More common occupations which suit some subjects of Cancer are real estate broker, gardener and sailor.

Life Is Just Like A Roller Coaster
Hutang yang udah lama belum dibayar, sedang dilunasi satu per satu... =D
Bright Eyes - Bowl Of Oranges
The rain had started tapping
On the window near my bed
There was a loophole in my dreaming
So I got out of it
And to my surprise my eyes were wide
And already open
Just my nightstand and my dresser
Where those nightmares had just been
Disini, narrator kaya gambarin tiba2 ada ‘lubang’ di mimpinya yang bikin dia bs bebas jalan2. Jd mgkn maksudnya kaya ada suatu pengalaman dalam hidupnya yg bikin ngerasa dy sadar akan sesuatu dan dapetin insight yang banyak dan baik banget dari pengalamannya itu.
So I dressed myself and left then
Out into the gray streets
But everything seemed different
Completely new to me
The sky, the trees, houses, buildings
Even my own body
And each person I encountered
I couldn't wait to meet
Nah disini, pas dia jalan2 keluar dari mimpinya, dia jalan2 dengan ‘pakaian’ baru, dengan ‘kacamata’ baru, semua yang baru ini yang bikin dia punya perspektif baru dari dunia ini. Dia memandang dunia dengan cara yg bener2 beda dari biasanya, dan itu bikin dia semangat bgt tiap hari.
Kalo dlm hidup nyata, tuh kaya ketemu seseorang yang baru, trus dia minjemin ‘kacamata’ dia, “nih coba deh, liat dari kacamata gw”, yah orang ini jd kaya mengajarkan kita banyak hal, mengajarkan kita memandang dunia dan semua hal yang ada di dalemnya dengan cara yg baru, yg lebih segar. Kaya kalo lo memfoto, biasanya pake film Lucky ISO 1000 B/W, skrg dia minjemin Pro Image ISO 200 yg warna. Dari Cuma item putih dengan kualitas rendah dan grainy terus semua jd lebih berwarna, dan dgn ISO 200 warnanya lebih natural, lebih keluar.
Walopun dengan ISO rendah kita membutuhkan Speed yg lebih lama, dan lebih sulit untuk memfoto di tempat dgn cahaya rendah, yah lebih butuh kesabaran dan keahlian lah. Untuk sesuatu yang lebih baik, lebih ‘berwarna’ dan lebih indah masa kita ga mau ngeluarin sedikit usaha sih? Masa kita ga mau nunggu sebentar aja sih? Sulit memang, tp untuk hasil yg lebih memuaskan, knp ngga?? =D (*curcol mode)
And I came upon a doctor
Who appeared in quite poor health
I said, "There's nothing I can do for you, You can't do for yourself"
He said, "Oh, yes you can, just hold my hand, I think that that would help"
So I sat with him a while
And I asked him how he felt
He said, "I think I'm cured. No, in fact I'm sure of it.
Thank you stranger. For your theraputic smile"
Lalu dia ketemu dokter yang lagi ‘sakit’/dalam keadaan yang kurang baik. Narrator bilang, “maaf, gw ga bisa bantu apa2, anda kan dokter”, dokter blg “oh, lo pasti bisa ko, gw Cuma bth kehadiran lo buat temenin gw, gw ga minta banyak kok”. Dan kemudian si narrator yang total stranger buat si dokter (begitu juga sebaliknya) Cuma duduk menemani sang dokter, sambil tersenyum dan memegng tangan si dokter, anehnya sang dokter merasa lebih baik setelah ditemani.
Moral of the story, seorang yg biasanya diidentikan dengan label orang yg kuat, guru, penolong, atau apapun itu, tetaplah seorang manusia yang bisa merasa ‘sakit’ atau tidak baik. Dan orang2 seperti ini terkadang dalam permasalahnnya membutuhkan hal sederhana saja untuk ‘sembuh’, bahkan dari orang yg baru dia kenal sekalipun. Kalo di lagu ya Cuma duduk sebentar, nemenin, senyum dan semua terasa lebih baik. Di hidup nyata, kita selalu merasa lebih baik kalo ada orang yg nemenin kita, bahkan Cuma denger keluh kesah kita, kita merasa lebih aman kalo ada dia.
Kalo analogi favorit gw dari dulu, “secanggih dan secepat apapun teknologi dan mesin pesawat, pesawat itu tetep butuh daya angkat udara untuk bisa terbang ke tujuannya, ga bisa bergantung sama mesinnya doing”. Pesawat ulang alik di luar angkasa? Atau pesawat satelit? Yap, pesawat secanggih ini pun butuh gaya gravitasi kan untuk tetap ada dalam orbitnya?
Itu yang bikin manusia menjadi ‘benar2’ manusia, kebutuhan akan manusia lain. Terkadang karena kita terlalu sering ngelakuin tugas2 besar, pekerjaan2 berat, kita lupain hal kecil, dan “ah Cuma masalah sepele”, tapi bukankah hal kecil itu yg bikin hidup jd lebih indah? Kalo gw, lebih bisa merasakan emosi dari lukisan, kalo bisa ngerasain grain2 sapuan kuas yg kecil2 dari si pelukis. I love simple things, It makes a big difference for me.
So that's how I learned the lesson
That everyone's alone
And your eyes must do some raining
If you're ever gonna grow
When crying don't help, you can't compose yourself
It's best to compose a poem
An honest verse of longing
Or a simple song of hope
Dari sini si narrator dapet pengalaman berharga, dari kisah si dokter tadi. Bahwa sebenernya se-independen apapun orang, pada dasarnya manusia selalu merasa kesepian.
Ada istilah “men should’n cry”. Tp nyatanya, semakin kita dewasa, kita makin sadar nangis itu hal yg normal. It’s ok to weep ur eyes all the time, if it makes u feel better. It’s quite normal, it makes u still human. Yah kalo menangis ga menolong, lo bisa menuliskan, mencurahkan perasaan lo, ke media yg lo mau, biar gak merugikan orang lain. Lo bisa tulis doa2 dan harapan lo kapan aja, asalkan itu bisa bikin lo lebih baik. Bebas.
That's why I'm singing, baby, don't worry
Because now I've got your back
And every time you feel like crying
I'm gonna try to make you laugh
And if I can't, if it just hurts too bad
Then we'll wait for it to pass
And I will keep you company
Through those days so long and black
Ah, a super cute verse from super genius song writer!! Siapa sih yang ga mau ada orang yang bener2 bersungguh-sungguh nyanyiin line ini dan benar2 melakukannya untuk kita? Liriknya udah tau lah ya artinya? Artinya dalem bgt, dan ga norak. Cm pesan yg mau gw bilang adalah, kadang2 ada masalah yang hanya membutuhkan waktu untuk clear. Ga perlu solusi konkrit apa2, tp yah, tinggal tunggu waktu aja. As simple as that.
We'll keep working on the problem
We know we'll never solve
Of love's uneven remainders
Our lives are fractions of a whole
But if the world could remain within a frame
Like a painting on a wall
Then I think we'd see the beauty then
And stand staring in awe
Kadang kita terlalu sibuk ma masalah2, dan samape bikin stress, disinisi narrator kaya ngajak “coba, pause hidup lo bentar, step back sebentar, lihat, dan amati lg yg udah terjadi pada diri kita dan lingkungan kita” dan dia juga kaya berandai-andai, coba hidup kita bisa di freeze, trus ditaro di frame, dipajang, kita lihat, bahwa sebenernya, walopun terkadang kejam, tapi hidup kita indah loh.
Sesimple apapun lukisan/gambar, dia butuh setidaknya 2 warna. Bener gak? Gak ada yg namanya hitam doang atau putih doang, ga keliatan apa2 dong? Tp kalo kita bikin hitam di atas putih (ato sebaliknya) sebuah bentuk bisa keliatan kan? Bahkan kalo kita bikin ga sekaku itu, kita kasih warna abu2 dengan macem2 gradasinya, semua terlihat semakin nyata kan? Dalam foto hitam putih, yang memberikan unsur realistis justru warna gradasi abu2nya.
lukisan/foto berwarna juga, ada gelap terang. Kalo kita bikin foto, cahayanya terlalu over atau under, juga ga enak diliatnya. Kita butuh warna2 dan cahaya di antara yg paling gelap dan yang paling terang, di antara over dan under. Baru deh tuh foto jd indah. Sama kasusnya kaya warna abu2. That’s why I love grey so much! Bahkan default theme windows gw pake yg classic, dgn gradasi dari item ke putih *OOT.
Yup coba lakukan itu, ‘pause’ hidup lo bentar, liat lagi, liat indahnya dan kita akan sadar bahwa masalah juga punya keindahan dan seninya tersendiri, dan kita akan sangat kagum bgt dgn hal itu. ”Then I think we'd see the beauty then And stand staring in awe”
At our still lives posed
Like a bowl of oranges
Like a story told
By the fault-lines and the soil
Verse terakhir ini adalah kesimpulan dari semua. Ketika kita sadar bahwa kita manusia biasa yg ga sempurna, butuh orang lain, butuh mengakui kelemahan kita, butuh menangis, butuh masalah juga. Trus kita gabungin semua dalam kanvas, kita pajang (t Our Still Lives Posed) kita sadar deh, bahwa masalah dalam hidup itu hal yang biasa dan justru bikin semua jd lebih indah.
Inget, yg bikin indah justru ada macem2 warna, ada gradasi, ada abu2. Bukan hanya hitam putih. When everythings always fine, it is become ‘normal’ right? So, we just have a ‘plain’ live! Ga asik! Yg bikin rollercoaster asik apanya? Naik turunnya, belok beloknya, jungkir baliknya, kapan cepet kapan lambatnya! Bayangin kalo di Dufan rollercoaster nya Cuma lurus aja dgn kecepatang konstan, gw yakin ga laris itu!! garing bgt! haha.
Sesuai judul lagu, life is just like a bowl of oranges, kita ga akan pernah tau kapan kita makan jeruk yg manis atau asem, tp dalam mangkuk kehidupan itu, ga semua jeruk manis. Tp jeruk ya tetap jeruk, mau rasanya kaya apa juga, dia banyak vitaminnya, baik untuk kesehatan kita, ya kan?
Dan favorit line gw juga “by the fault lines”, hebat dia milih kata2nya. Fault-lines, garis putus2, garis yang ga sempurna. Mungkin maksud yg mau disampein tuh, walopun garisnya ga sempurna, tapi ya garis tetep garis, garis itu adalah salah satu bentuk yang…apa ya istilahnya…’punya arah’?? memungkinkan terjadinya suatu perkembangan/progress. A Line Allow A Progress, A Circle Does Not.
Kalo yang masih agak nebak2 itu “Soil”, tanah…mgkn maksudnya ya kaya tanah itu salah satu unsure yang memberikan kehidupan di bumi, kalo kita olah tanah dgn bener bisa mendatangkan manfaat, tapi kalo salah, malah bisa berbahaya…nyambung ga sih?
Yah, hidup itu butuh masalah, dan kalo ada masalah, anggep aja tantangan, gimana mau maju dan berkembang kalo dalem hidup lo ga ada tantangan sama sekali, Cuma jd orang yg hidupnya datar2 aja, orang yg hidupnya terlalu nyaman, cenderung lebih lemah dari yg hidupnya prihatin. Orang yg hidupnya turun naik biasanya lbh kuat, lebih cerdik, lebih kreatif, lebih militant. Syaratnya orang itu orang yg optimis, dan ga pernah nyerah, terus ngotot.
Lagu ini, ada di album Bright Eyes “LIFTED, or The Story Is In The Soil, Keep Your Ears To The Ground” yang dirilis tahun 2002. Sampe sekarang koleksi Bright Eyes gw udah ada “Letting Off The Happiness (1998)”, “Every Day And Every Night (1999)”, “Fevers And Mirrors (2000)”, “Drunk Kid Catholic (2001)”, “LIFTED (2002)”, “I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning (2005)”, “Motion Sickness (2005)”, “Noise Floor (Rarities from 1998-2005)”, “Cassadaga (2007)”, “Four Winds (2007)”, serta beberapa single yang ga masuk ke album.
Secara musical, lagu ini biasa aja, ga ada unjuk skill kemampuan bermusik, ga ada lick-lick gitar listrik yg penuh tapping, drumnya monoton, vokalnya biasa aja, Cuma ada sedikit iringan dari Flute, Keyboard dan bbrp String, kord lagunya juga kord Major standar yg ‘lurus’ aja, dengan beat yg ceria. Cuma liriknya luar biasa! Sesuatu yg luar biasa di dalem, dibungkus dengan kemasan yg standar aja. Lagu ini gw rate 5 bintang di iTunes, dan sering banget gw puter. Lagu Bright Eyes favorit ke 2 gw setelah First Day Of My Life. Mungkin Connor Oberst (si Vokalis) pas bikin lagunya mikir “ah bikin lagu yg bisa bikin orang mikir ah, tapi simple aja” hahahaha. Itulah indahnya Bright Eyes, butuh usaha lebih untuk paham maksud lagunya, mungkin supaya keindahan alam semesta ga bisa dipahamin dengan mudah oleh orang2 kaya Ariel ataupun Changcuters, hahaha.
Aneh...
such an awkward feeling
just like seeing a ghost
a good ghost
just like chasing the ghost of a good thing
i know i must face it with a grin, just like my Dearest Friend once said

My Everlasting Gold
Bright Eyes - First Day Of My Life
This is the first day of my life
I swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach
Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don’t know where I am
I don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go
And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home
Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you had just woke up
And you said "this is the first day of my life
"I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
"Now I don’t care I could go anywhere with you
"And I’d probably be happy"
So if you want to be with me
With these things there’s no telling
We'll just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Besides maybe this time it's different
I mean I really think you'll like me
I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
siapa yg tidak suka lagu ini??yak tidak ada yang mengangkat tangan, kalau ada silakan angkat kaki saja dari blog saya!!

lagunya tentang...mmm...kalau menurut saya tentang 'menuju-sebuah-hubungan-yg-lebih-serius'. di negeri Paman Sam sana, lagu ini banyak dijadikan Wedding Song. dan saya pun ingin ada yang menyanyikan lagu ini di pernikahan saya nanti. kalau diperhatikan, ini Love Song yang ga ada kata 'Love'nya sama sekali yah, dan videony tidak kalah manis, konsepnya semua orang diminta mendengarkan lagu ini, dan semua ekspresi mereka direkam secara apa adanya. lihat begitu murninya ekspresi mereka. lirik fav saya adalah :
I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Minta Izin...
...krik...krik...krik... (backsound jangkrik)
*dug dug dug
*nguiik nguiik
*tes tes, satu satu, test satu dua tiga
"permisi bapak2, ibu2, pak RT, Pak RW, saya mau numpang teriak...sebentar saja..."
"AAAARRRRRGGGHHHH!"
"terima kasih selamat malam"
...krik...krik...krik... (jangkrikpun kembali bernyanyi)
Pohon Kehidupan
Aku ingin tumbuh menjadi sebuah pohon
Ketika tunas, diriku menyerap berbagai mineral yang baik di sekitarku
Aku tumbuh menjadi tunas yang sehat
Yang selalu menanti datangnya matahari pagi
Yang tidak pernah berebut oksigen dengan manusia di malam hari
Yang selalu menanti hujan dengan sukacita
Dan tidak takut panasnya matahari
Yang tidak pernah menjadi benalu
Semakin berumur, batang2ku semakin kuat
Akar2ku semakin menancap dalam ke tanah
Tidak mudah untuk mencabutku
Ketika mulai dewasa aku mulai mempunyai buah
Walaupun belum masak
Tetapi buahku selalu ditunggu-tunggu oleh manusia
Walaupun belum cukup rindang, namun beberapa manusia mulai merasakan kesejukanku
Ketika daunku berguguran, ia tidak lantas menjadi sampah
Tetapi menjadi salah satu penyebab kesuburan tanah
Burung2 kecil tidak pernah ragu untuk hinggap di dahanku
Dikarenakan mereka dapat bernyanyi sambil merasakan kehangatan dan kesejukan
Merekapun membangun sarang mereka di dahanku, aku tidak keberatan
Aku tidak keberatan menjadi rumah untuk siapa saja yang ingin merasakan kesejukanku
Aku tidak keberatan untuk melindungi anak2 burung kecil itu
Jiwa2 kecil yang belum mengenal dunia
Aku tidak keberatan ketika sepasang kekasih mengukir namanya di tubuhku
Agar aku bisa menjadi kenangan manis dari setiap insan yang mengenalku
Agar aku bisa menjadi kenangan manis dari setiap insan yang mengenalku
Ketika hujan badai, terkadang aku masih goyah
Dikarenakan dahanku yang belum cukup kuat
Tetapi sekuat apapun badai itu, akarku tidak akan pernah tercabut
Aku berharap ketika aku tua nanti dahanku semakin kuat
Sehingga ketika sang badai dating kembali, aku bisa kuat berdiri
Kini aku telah semakin berumur, dahanku semakin besar dan kokoh
Daun2ku semakin lebat
Semakin banyak makhluk hidup berlindung dalam naunganku
Buah2 yang kuhasilkan semakin lezat dan matang
Semakin menggoda untuk dipetik oleh manusia yang lewat
Aku tidak pernah keberatan akan hal itu
Asalkan mereka bahagia dan buahku berguna untuk tubuh mereka, aku tidak keberatan
Semakin banyak daunku dan dahanku yang berguguran, semakin subur lingkunganku
Semakin sering aku menahan badai, semakin kuat akar2ku menggenggam bumi
Semakin banyak buahku yang masak di dahanku
Mereka akan menjadi tua dan jatuh ke bumi
Daging mereka akan menuburkan tanah
Biji mereka akan kembali menumbuhkan tunas2 yang kuat sepertiku
Semakin rindang daunku, semakin banyak makhluk hidup berlindung di bawah naunganku
Berlindung dari panas matahari dan hujan
Meskipun daunku tidak cukup kokoh untuk memberikan perlindungan yang sempurna
Tetapi aku yakin makhluk2 hidup tersebut tidak keberatan dengan kemampuanku
Kesejukan dan kenyamananku tetap menjadi penantian mereka
Penantian mereka di hari2 yang panas dan kejam
Kini banyak tumbuhan lain yang tumbuh di sekitarku
Mulai dari pohon yang rindang dan kokoh, pohon bambu, sampai benalu2
Aku tidak keberatan benalu2 itu tumbuh di dalam diriku
Asalkan mereka punya sedikit tempat untuk tinggal
Aku hanya bisa berharap ketika benalu2 itu mati, mereka dapat menyuburkan tanah
Walaupun disekitarku tumbuh berbagai macam tumbuhan
Namun diriku tetaplah diriku yang dulu, tidak berubah banyak, hanya lebih kokoh dan matang
Dan tetap menjadi makhluk hidup tidak sempurna yang berusaha berguna untuk makhluk lain
Kini sudah tiba waktuku untuk mengucap perpisahan pada dunia
Matahari sudah mulai lelah dan hendak memejamkan matanya di barat
Sisa2 hidupku tinggal sedikit, dahan dan daunku sudah mulai rontok habis
Tubuhku mulai melemah melawan badai, namun tidak dengan hatiku
Biarlah tubuhku hancur diterjang badai, namun akarku tetap disini
Akhirnya, aku bersatu denga Ibu Bumi
Aku memeluknya tanpa ragu, menciumnya dan mengurai air mata
Kini aku bisa melihat sisa dahanku dan tubuhku terurai di perut Ibu Bumi
Sehingga perutnya lebih subur karena sisa tubuhku
Dan buah dari dahanku yang berjatuhan telah menimbulkan tunas-tunas kecil yang manis
Biji-bijinya tumbuh dengan cepat menusuk dan menghujam dengan tegas ke perut Ibu
Kelak biji-biji mungil ini akan tumbuh seperti diriku
Pohon-pohon yang berguna
Pohon-pohon yang senantiasa menentang badai
Pohon-pohon yang memberikan keteduhan
Dan lambat laun anak cucuku akan membentuk sebuah hutan lebat
Hutan yang dapat memberikan kesejukan dan keteduhan pada dunia
Dan kini, dari jauh aku tersenyum bersama Ibu di Surga
Menatap hutan-hutan yang megah ini
Dan Ibu pun terus berputar tiada henti melanjutkan tugasnya dengan sukacita

The Smiths - Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want
Good times for a change
see, the luck I've had
can make a good man
turn bad
So please please please
let me, let me, let me
let me get what I want
this time
Haven't had a dream in a long time
see, the life I've had
can make a good man bad
So for once in my life
let me get what I want
Lord knows it would be the first time
Lord knows it would be the first time
see, the luck I've had
can make a good man
turn bad
So please please please
let me, let me, let me
let me get what I want

Haven't had a dream in a long time
see, the life I've had

So for once in my life
let me get what I want
Lord knows it would be the first time
Lord knows it would be the first time
Glue And Stitch
I was the glue that held us together
I'll be that fucking stitch forever
When you feel like there's nothing left inside of you
Just remember I was someone you could hold on to
Are a mental restraints a good replacement for me?
