I will not walk with your progressive apes, erect and sapient...

if by God's mercy progress ever ends,

and does not ceaselessly revolve the same

unfruitful course with changing of a name.


...Then looking on the Blessed Land 'twill see,

that all is as it is, and yet made free...

~J.R.R. Tolkien~


As a fire when kindled

makes fuel into ash,

so the fire of wisdom

makes actions into ash.

~Bhagavad Gita 4:37~

Hening Suara-Mu

Sentuhan Gaia membentuk rupa.. ketika tetes-tetes bening itu tertimpa mentari senja..
Warna bumi pun merona, semburat merah melatari rangkaian hijau kebiruan..
Inilah semesta., nafas kehidupan yang membuat nyawa membara..
Di tengahnya.. kami menatap terpesona..

Ibu, aku anakMu yang mencoba menelaahMu..
Dari kedalaman udara kudengar sapaMu..
Hening SuaraMu mengalun menghapus dahagaku..

Ibu, aku anakMu yang mencoba memandangMu..
Dari kelegaman malam kunikmati kalimatMu..
Hening suaraMu mendayu memuaskan jiwaku..
