Jogjakarta, oh Jogja


from station
you ride carriage
I walk behind you
picking *tlethong
stalled path
pedicab driver
represent his friends
wish to park pedicab
in heart

so it's all over
I walk again
only a few steps
passed the House of Representatives
*angkringan seller took my hand
me sitting on the bench

cup of black coffee
squeezed from his body
presented to me
then burn the heart
with live charcoal embers
which pierced like kebabs
after waiting blackened
presented again to me

I'm hungry
Blunt
then I eat it hot
not the least remaining
I gulp coffee also
until sold out

suddenly a man came
came from behind
I thought the closet door and prying
and put all merchandise
mas, deposited me please!
he said as he went

I said goodbye
the father of this famous seller
want to continue my journey

but only a few meters
children handyman peddlers
and a shoeshine
who was running
hit and fell
I'm tired!
he told his friends
as he lay down
eclipse in my hall

I let it
they rest and sleep
then I walked slowly
afraid to wake them up

the late evening
The singers did not recede
sang the song live a wry
on the sidewalk my soul

when he got into the court *ngejaman
I saw the traveler
're showing off her stuff
the newly purchased
I bought a warm look
and everything in the baskets this
I brought deliberately as souvenirs
to his neighbors as well
said a traveler

I, too,
This dagger which I take
and are encased in this dos
would later put them in my gallery
said the other travelers

I have I bought too
*surjan and *blankon
everything is folded neatly in bags
Other travelers said
not want to lose

what I can for this one
said my inner weakness

Just go on my way again
up to the building-Sono Art history
This shuffling conduct worship
to tender
want a moment of rest and lie down

but how surprised I was
when he saw Sono Art-House
has been wrapped with zinc
Where else travelers who have been
buy it
I asked myself

my curiosity forced to endure
in fact anyone who has purchased
I kept wondering
in the liver

was unfortunately
effort to find out
Who's behind all this
not to be missed alias fails

I can not last longer
because a flock of police
a patrol car stopped
and fell right in front of me
then arrested and dragged

and finally came to me
in-room bars
I wonder
in fact,
anyone who could sell
still at the heart

* Angkringan / sellers with less food carts
* Tlethong / horse manure
* Ngejaman / Monument hour
* Building-Seno Art / It is a historic building, which became a center of arts and theater
* Gudeg / traditional food of Jogyakarta
* Surjan / traditional clothing typical of the city of Jogjakarta
* Blankon / type of traditional headgear typical of Jogyakarta
