The Hit of Ramadan
his fist like a stool: the heat carries a foul odor
attached to the table
with a loud voice and foul breath from fasting
but the foul will not be confused with the perfume
because the rotten out of rupiah that failed to slide
some cooling machines were crying on the wall
surprised by the fist that landed on the table
rows of chairs and tables
as well as voting evidence
still dare not move
the afternoon was a victory almost arrived
fist that landed on the table interrupted everything
the holy verses are sung this afternoon
after one seat as the organizer
no more meaningful than poetry verses
because it was burned boxing on the table
if the boxing was elected again
not impossible later
he landed on a human face
because he is the owner of a hunt that is chasing the treasure
by selling the tomb of his ancestors.

Pukulan Ramadan
tinjunya seperti tinja: panas membawa bau busuk
melekat di atas meja
dengan suara keras dan napas busuk karena puasa
tapi busuknya tidak akan tertukar dengan kasturi
sebab busuk keluar dari rupiah yang gagal meluncur
beberapa mesin pendingin menangis di dinding
terkejut dengan tinju yang mendarat di meja
deretan kursi dan meja
juga bukti-bukti pemungutan suara
diam tak berani bergerak
sore itu kemenangan hampir tiba
tinju yang mendarat di meja membuyarkan semuanya
ayat-ayat suci yang dilantunkan siang tadi
demi satu kursi sebagai penyelenggara
tak lebih berarti dari bait-bait puisi
sebab sudah dibakar tinju di atas meja
andai tinju itu terpilih lagi
bukan tak mungkin nanti
ia mendarat di wajah manusia
sebab ia pemiliki angkara yang sedang memburu harta
dengan menjual pusara nenek moyangnya.
