mewajarkan dosa

hang jebat meratap
di pangkuan pembunuhnya.
hang tuah pembunuh saudaranya
menelan airmata jebat
dengan harapan airmata itu
menjadi antidot
dosanya pada jebat.

A Haiku: On The Street

A young ginger cat
washes her face, oblivious
the morning sun shines.

A Friend

I saw someone
and thought it was you. I said
"hullo".
He looked up and around to
see whom. Quickly, I
pretended not to be the one
and walked away as fast as
I could.
Have I forgotten how you looked like?

coffee

the man looks at the cup of coffee in front of him. A thin vapour curls up and diasappear. He can't smell the coffee. His throat is dry, eyes are wet. With trembling fingers, he tried to lift the cup. But the fingers, seemed boneless, the cup rolled of table and crash on the floor. spilt coffee on the white lino. Black on white.
