Aku menjemputmu! Bis tingkat menderu, polusi membasahi Jakarta. Siapa mengusik pagi dengan siulan menyayat itu? “Klaus Meine, Scorpion,” katamu. Wind of Change berkumandang. Menyusuri Taman Gorky, tembok Berlin telah runtuh, katanya. Kau tahu bet...

I always say the truth is best even when we find it unpleasant. Any rat in a sewer can lie. It's how rats are. It's what makes them rats. But a human doesn't run and hide in dark places, because he's something more. Lying is the most personal act of ...

Unless you are here: this garden refuses to exist. Pink dragonflies fall from the air and become scorpions scratching blood out of rocks. The rainbows that dangle upon this mist: shatter. Like the smile of a child separated from his mother’s milk f...
[the 'stick to cobra' combat had just occurred] Moses: You gave me this staff to rule over scorpions and serpents, but God made it a rod to rule over kings. Hear His word, Rameses, and obey. Rameses: Obey? Moses, Moses. Are there no magicians in Egyp...
You who understand what a human mind can be, how can you bear it? I don't have the hundredth part of your mind and there are days when I think I'll go mad. I can feel it. Or hear it. It's more like hearing something creeping along the walls, just beh...

The air was cool and soft. The desert looked empty from our great height, enough to believe the geographers and travel writers who tell of the terrible desert life, the stillness, harshness, and death. I lay against the cold sand, tiny grains dancing...
