Moon river tanka

1/
now i'm down
by the river of light
o sickle moon
can you see petrified eyes
captured in the riverbed?

aku bersimpuh
di tepi sungai kemilau
o bulan sabit
kau lihatkah mata yang ketakutan
membayang di dasar sungai?

2/
under the streetlight
i stand, sigh and stare
the moon up
she says again and again
how she loves being alone

di bawah lampu jalan
aku tegak, mendesah dan terpaku
pada bulan terang
selalu saja ia bercerita
tentang cintanya pada kesendirian

Unspokenwords haiku

words unspoken
i stare at the sky
your tears pour into

katakata mati
aku terpana pada langit
yang menampung airmatamu

Smoldering dream haiku

a dream smoldering
by the fireplace
you stand and stare

mimpi melapuk
di dekat perapian
kau memandang terpaku

Gekko haiku

timid welcome
a gekko on the ceiling
stares at me

sambutan dingin
seekor tokek di langit-langit
memandangiku
