Me…(Aku) a tribute to Chairil Anwar (1922-1949)
If this is it
Then so shall it be
Such is final.
Leave it as it is.
I am but a swine
Cast out by my own.
Even in the heat of pain
I will regroup and fight.
The slash of swords I will withstand
Withstand.
Until such time as it is no more.
And then, who cares
I want to live.
©Joe Wilson - Me…(Aku) a tribute to Chairil Anwar (1922-1949)
This fine Indonesian poet died the year I was born.
Most of his work was censored.
