Dear Little Brother <br />Please tell me whether <br />You did the unthinkable <br />Going back to the insensible? <br /> <br />I have gone to those places <br />Upon the Lord's disgrace <br />To the darkest of passage <br />In the middle of torn pages <br /> <br />Look at me, Jack <br />My eyes are now black <br />Skull had cracked <br />Arms all hacked <br /> <br />Take a good look, Jack <br />The road is black <br />The world is cracked <br />And the message has been hacked <br /> <br />So, why Jack? <br />Why do you come back? <br />To that wicked shack? <br />And those evil pack? <br /> <br />Dear Beloved Sister <br />Your eyes are prettier <br />Head still above shoulder <br />Arms had become wonder <br /> <br />You went to many places <br />But under the Lord's embrace <br />To the subtlest of trials <br />Into the fullest of vials <br /> <br />I am tracing back <br />The road is not black <br />The world has not cracked <br />And the message has not been hacked <br /> <br />The road was black <br />Cause you couldn't feel <br />All the paths and the facts <br />Invisible is not unreal <br /> <br />The world was cracked <br />Cause you didn't realize <br />Nothing is perfect <br />Symmetry is a disguise <br /> <br />The message was hacked <br />Cause you couldn't accept <br />Recite is not react <br />Exact isn't always correct <br /> <br />So many differences <br />So hard being indifference <br />Upside down reality <br />I am just being honest, truly <br /> <br />(Jakarta,23 November 2009)<br /><br />Ahmad Arli Hikmawan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dear-sister-7/
