FIRST WOMAN
Work: Edy Samudra Kertagama

This essay is not as long as what you have said, so let it capture sadness, and later when the moon comes to touch your body, let it be, because every sigh has become a sound in your breath.

Come, dance tonight, even though it’s almost morning, and tomorrow we’ll kill all the pests in the flower stems and ignore all the short messages that have ever been in all their fragrance. Because, in the past you were so threatened, every time you would go far away.

I know the place, where you have walked, so please tell me about the violet flower, otherwise let it fall asleep at night, and wake up before the rooster crows, where we first met and then hid in the full moon.

WOMEN AT THE END OF THE YEARS Work: Edy Samudra Kertagama

Your eyes Hepolita, your pattern is water in a bowl and you’re no stranger, about sparks between dry grass because all horses are incapable to touch you until you’re wet.

Maybe for you this is so threatening that the wind keeps coming until late at night, to take you to places of upheaval on the prairie.

Women at the end of the year, your eyes bee, December is: your holiday and an Announcer never smells your fragrance, because you are Eve who is more romantic than the story of Romeo and Juliet.
