PINTU SEMPIT
pintu yang bisa mengantarmu kemana saja kamu mau
tapi sayang, kita semua harus berdesakan
karena pintu itu sempit dan begitu bernafsunya kita semua
ya, memang ada yang tidak begitu nafsu seperti kamu
tapi setidaknya lebih banyak yang punya nafsu
pintu itu sempit dan sepertinya susah buatku juga
sesekali aku keluar lewat jendela lalu masuk lagi melalui itu jendela
aku tahu rasanya mengalami udara di luar sana
sejenak memompa relung tulang semangatku yang dahaga
tapi jujur, belum pernah aku lalui pintu kemana saja
mungkin karena aku tidak suka berdesakan seperti mereka
atau bisa jadi aku terlalu sombong untuk menjadi marjinal dan hina
tapi jujur lagi, aku juga ingin lewat pintu itu seperti semuanya
entah kapan aku bisa sampai ke pintu itu
aku hanya bisa lihat kusennya yang penuh catatan kaki
persyaratan untuk bisa kemana saja
dan mereka yang kembali tidak ada yang bersorak sorai
entah mengapa
tidak ada yang bicara
dan tetap juga mereka ikut berdesakan kembali
melalui pintu sempit
yang bisa membawa mereka kemana saja
dan aku masih berdiri di dekat jendela ini
siap untuk melompat dan melongok dunia di luar sana
dan relung tulang semangatku siap mengembang
meminta udara segar memompanya
satu saat kelak,
aku lalui pintu sempit itu.

MENCINTAI
Mencintai itu seperti empat musim yang datang tak kenal waktu
Menyeruak tiba-tiba membuat rona mukamu mengharu biru
Namun rona itu tak tinggal lama karena digantikan duka menderu
Lalu kamu mencoba berpasrah dalam sunyi seribu kelu yang layu
Oh betapa mencintai itu penuh dengan kejutan manis yang setia
Mereka-reka apa yang akan terjadi di ujung sana ketika ia menyapa
Mengerling kepadanya hanya untuk menunjukkan senyum mesra
Menggandeng tangannya dalam gemericik air pada payung di kala senja
Namun mencintai itu juga berarti pertikaian karena keegoisan diri
Karena hati ingin lebih dipahami daripada logika yang kerap menyendiri
Dan akhirnya hati itu terasa dipanggang sejuta bara yang seakan tak mau mati
Hingga di ujung simpang jalan itu akan kita pilih ke kanan atau ke kiri
Semua musim dalam cinta itu ditutup oleh musim semi khusus untuk cinta
Dimana dua hati yang terluka telah terobati dan siap memadu asmara
Mengucap janji dalam tatapan mesra bagi dunia baru yang datang dengan likunya
Di musim semi itu, semuanya berlalu digantikan oleh kecup mesra
Dan mencintai itu kembali kepada alamnya…

SOME PARENTS RAISE MONSTERS - AN OVERVIEW
To tell you the truth, they raise monsters within their families. Children with no rules are enrolling within international schools and international standard schools. Parents are too busy to see this phenomenon. Teachers are in difficult and weak position. Since there are no rules at home but target and target. Parents want their children to be able to show how good they are in maths and English and other VIP lessons. Parents also want the schools - in this case the teachers - to equip their children with life skills but without any support from them at all. Teachers are not more than maids.
Some schools with business orientation as its leading theme would press the teachers to satisfy parents' needs. It is beyond the spirit of education. Schools should be the agent of change in educating those who want to be educated. The reality is the other way around these days. The fools are trying to drive the schools because unfortunately the fools have money and are on the top of the society economic level. This country has to do something. There are million of invisible hands trying to catch the gold fish.
There is no mistake in making schools with new paradigm. Not at all. However, schools with parents as the co-drivers can be such a terrible situation for the students emotional growth. The mentality of " I can buy everything because I can" is coming unconsciously to parents mind and become the trend of the century. Parents read a lot of educational books and think that they are experts by reading. Whilst the teachers who are really the practitioners are put aside because they are considered as maids level. The children as they are also students see this phenomenon right before their eyes and record this as "a chance" to take the teacher for granted. After all, my parents pay them. It is horrible moment to realize.
Positively, there would be revolution coming in the near future. The revolution would be from teachers. Surely, it would not be a physical such as a strike to the whole world. I believe that it would be a silent revolution where the teachers leave their tables, laptops, and stay at home
However, there are parents who really put themselves on teachers and education values side. Those parents who really appreciate teachers will do the physical ones. They would take action as the contra on the monsters producers and the monsters as well. Now, this is what I call horrible! There will be demonstrations against demonstrations. There will be number of students fighting each other. It is the time of justice.
Many families where those monsters are created choose religious schools as their bases. They are trained to use the gospels and many other religion beliefs. They are going to attack really hard. I think this is the most difficult area where the teachers in this field are coped with some "twisted" words of God. However, the evil will be gone. Amen!
Let's wait and see...
