SAJAK MATAHARI BY W.S. RENDRA-- CASSIOPEIA

SAJAK MATAHARI
Oleh :
W.S. Rendra
Matahari bangkit dari sanubariku.
Menyentuh permukaan samodra raya.
Matahari keluar dari mulutku,
menjadi pelangi di cakrawala.
Wajahmu keluar dari jidatku,
wahai kamu, wanita miskin !
kakimu terbenam di dalam lumpur.
Kamu harapkan beras seperempat gantang,
dan di tengah sawah tuan tanah menanammu !
Satu juta lelaki gundul
keluar dari hutan belantara,
tubuh mereka terbalut lumpur
dan kepala mereka berkilatan
memantulkan cahaya matahari.
Mata mereka menyala
tubuh mereka menjadi bara
dan mereka membakar dunia.
Matahari adalah cakra jingga
yang dilepas tangan Sang Krishna.
Ia menjadi rahmat dan kutukanmu,
ya, umat manusia !

Extreme Culinary of Oseng Ungkrung Uler Jati

photo by Hery Fosil

“What so extreme it is” The words that come from mouth after taste oseng ungkrung uler jati (cocoon of caterpillar which have reproduction in the teak-trees). It is the kind of food that you can find in Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta in early rainy season. “Wow, its abnormal food, but it’s delicious”. This food is actually usual in Gunungkidul, because it is favorite food after grasshopper which is very popular in Gunungkidul.  Both of them are very extreme and uncommon food, but it is the fact, that people actually more brutal than animal.

“You know, it is a cocoon and I eat it”. This menu serve in a small warung LESBIAN (Lesehan BiasANe) in Gunungkidul, it is taken place at Siyono Wetan (north), near the city center.  If I have a time when I come to my hometown, I will go to this warung  and order different menu such as Oseng mercon, oseng mushroom, rica- rica enthog, etc. but the special one is oseng ungkrung uler jati  because it just can find in this place just in the early rainy season.  

“If you like spicy very much, I suggest you to order it, you can order how spicy do you want”. I always order the spicy oseng ungkrung because of the combination of the taste which make me will taste it again and again. “The taste is like shrimp, crispy but for each cocoon and soft”. It can burn your mouth, and then you will flutter your hand because it is very hot and your face will wet because of your sweat. “It is deliciously oily and salty, somewhat sweet, and it is so hot”.

 About this place, it is my favorite place because the owner of this warung is very friendly and she will prepare the ingredient and cook it by herself.  The place is clean although it is at the roadside, people visit this warung usually will quickly enjoy the ambience because in that place, they can make a friend and very friendly. “We like to make a joke, talk to each other about many things”, and we often laugh together. “I feel very special when I visit this place, because I meet people and we can eat together, we make a friend and we know each other, share about the taste from the menu that has been order and also the ambiance that make enjoy the time in my hometown”. Actually this warung has many menus and for each has special taste. When the usum ungkrung (cocoon season in early rainy season) come, this place will full of customers to order oseng ungkrung made by the owner of this warung. But be careful if you have an allergy, because it can make you itching. 

 “I hope that season will come again quickly”.

To whom I love #3

The eyes of you, to make me see the bright of thousand stars.
You put the sight toward me,
You are curious, indeed.
But you don't let me know the same sight yet.
O, let me watch the sky in yours then help me close my eyes.
To remain me of you.
--Thou-

Lamunan di Malam Sabtu

Lamunan di Malam Sabtu, Nia Santi, 12 April 2013

Malam ini malam sabtu

Aku sendirian di ruang kamarku

Hening dan dindingnya berwarna kelabu

Aku ingat dua hari lalu saat berada di hadapanmu

Kau mencoba untuk mendelatiku

Kau nampak ingin berada pada sejengkal jarak saja dengan aku

Kini aku tanpamu

Aku mulai memikirkanmu

Aku mengingat setiap detak jantungmu

Aku meraba pipi bekas ciuman hangat darimu

Wajahmu yang belum saja mau hilang dari penglihatanku

Mengenalmu dalam singkat waktu yang terburu

Aku ingin sehangat napas yang kau sembahkan demi hidupmu

Suaramu yang tak akan pernah terhapus dari otakku

Sentuhanmu yang kekal  kurasakan kala itu

Lembut dan bersenyawa, sampai terasa oleh naluri kewanitaanku

Aku merindukanmu

Aku mungkin sakit cinta padamu

Tergetar hati ini padamu, aku mungkin telah jatuh hati padamu

Jika waktu terlalu cepat, semoga kau hadiah dari tuhan untukku

Untuk menyirnakan sepinya hari- hari yang kerap menjemukanku

Aku inginkan sepanjang waktuku bersamamu

Doaku kini adalah, agar aku duduk disampingmu

Menyelinap dipeluk hangat dekapmu

Meluruhkan air mata dan lalu syahdu mendengar kisah dari degup jantungmu,

Aku ingin bersamamu

Menikamti hidup dalam cerita yang dikenalkan pada klasiknya kemesraan yang tak semu

Semoga kaulah tulang rusuk itu

Sang tiyang kokoh yang Tuhan ciptakan berpasangan denganku

Aku ingin menjadi hati yang kau sematkan sebagai istri, sang pamilik satu sisi kehidupan yang kau kehendaki.

You Are

If you are a sailor

I know who I am and where I should be placed, “I am a harbor”

In the tip of quay, the place for you to stop off

If you are a bird

I know you always love your trips

Then I am just the branch that you ever alight on my tree

If you are a kite

You understand that I am the air from the rustling breath

Which become the atmospheres from your deed

But you are loom

About YOU

I don’t need to toss down the beer, just to know how get the experience of drunk

Because I taste it from your lips, and I am drunk

I don’t need to inhale the smoke from the cigarette of yours

Because I always inhale this aroma from your body, I love to catch your breath

You always tell me about the cool of mountain’s atmosphere or the warm of forest’s land  

Whereas, I find it from your phlegm but sometimes your mien that makes me good and warm

I can feel your embrace, in our intimate meeting

YOU and about yourself

You are the part of my biggest basic thinking which is never ending

When I think of you, I cannot restrain myself

Never secure
