I am a Poem

I am a poem
ascending to higher unimportance
and I take it my humblest function
to dissent the ideals of mankind

  2. Hi there - your poetry is really quite special.

    I would like to recite an indonesian poem as part of a wedding speech for my indonesian relatives - could you recommend any poems? Gdawon at gmail.com. Kind regards,
    Garrett

  3. dear garrett, thank you for the mail. sorry, but i hope this reply isn't way too late. to date i haven't found one that may be suitable for the occassion. however, there's one piece that shares my personal view. unfortunately, it's not from an indonesian poet. please see my next post--it contains my own version translation.
    bests,
    tq
