green light--
a glimpse of a little girl
holding her tambourine
2/
green light--
fading reverb of her
tambourine
3/
at the traffic light
discerning the sound of
different colors
4/
busy junction
her tambourine glistens with
unknown song

Geriatric ward tanka chain
1/
how boring it is
to be here in G-ward
i make myself busy
with watching baby birds
learning to fly
sungguh membosankan
tinggal di klinik jompo
aku menyibukkan diri
memperhatikan anak-anak burung
belajar terbang
2/
same meal
same taste
dear chef,
does your recipe
read like a poetry?
menu yang sama
citarasa yang sama
wahai juru masak
apakah resepmu terbaca
seperti puisi?
3/
please, don't hesitate
to reach me
you spend too much time
trickling down thru'
the infuse line
jangan ragu
untuk menyentuhku
kau habiskan terlalu banyak waktu
menetes, mengalir lewat
selang infus

A table for two tanka
less talk
at a table for two
we are too busy with foods
or is it the rain falling
within our minds?
After an online discussion with my fellow tanka poets, the altered version goes..
a table for two
we talk less for
these good foods
or is it the rain falling
within our minds?
Indonesian translation needed. Somebody help me!

Beggar's bowl haiku
busy roadside
filling a beggar's bowl
day moon
jalanan sibuk
mangkuk pengemis penuh
bulan kesiangan
filling a beggar's bowl
day moon
jalanan sibuk
mangkuk pengemis penuh
bulan kesiangan
