jika ada yang bilang aku bermuka dua...
berarti dia nggak kenal banget sama aku.
dan itu tandanya, dia nggak deket-deket banget sama aku.
yang artinya lagi, orang itu nggak penting buat aku.
why bother?
Why Bother?
mimpi yang terbuang
mimpi yang terpendam adalah mimpi yang tidak terpelihara.
ia hilang dalam murka.
tenggelam dalam nestapa.
matahari tinggi mulai beraksi.
mengobarkan api sekaligus benci.
kalau sudah begini.
bergumul dengan peluh dalah jalan untuk pergi.

The Faceless - Shape Shifters
Kata Cinta Untuk Dia
Aku Suka Musik. Juga Suka Makan.
Lagi jalan-jalan musikal di Youtube. Melihat musik lintas zaman-genre.
Merasa sangat beruntung karena kedua orang tuanya punya selera musik ok.
Ingat dulu, setiap pagi setiap hari selalu diputarkan lagu-lagu di zaman mereka yang keren-keren, di tape deck dengan volume keras. Mulai dari lagu-lagu Chrisye, Harry Roesli hingga Lee Ritenour dan The MO. Beruntung, karena ketika bekerja di majalah musik, aku nggak buta-buta amat.
Bokap dan nyokap, dua-duanya penggemar jazz. Tapi nyokap agak lebih rock, salah dua favoritnya adalah Pink Floyd dan Led Zeppelin. Sedang bokap, bisa kayak orang gila kalau dengerin Chic Corea. Namanya anak gaul di masanya, koleksi kaset bejibun dan masih aku simpan sampai sekarang.
Gedean dikit, aku mulai kenal sama ska, punk dan metal. Yang terakhir ini jadi favorit banget. Kalau ditanya musik favorit, mungkin jawabnya eklektik. Tapi nggak bisa dipungkiri, metal itu kekasih hati. Segala jenis turunannya, termasuk thrash, death hingga technical adalah kawan sehari-hari. Tapi aku bukan anak metal, aku anak sholeh.
Oh sama satu lagi: progresif. Ya metal ya rock ya jazz. You name it lah, semua kenjlimetan itu adalah favorit sekali. Bisa ketawa-ketawa sendiri dengerinnya. Makanya, tiada hari tanpa dengerin karyanya Harry Roesli, karena semua ada di situ. Bahkan funk dan bossas. Oh dan Guruh Soekarno Putra [Guruh Gipsy] yang psycadelic dan luar biasa menarik. Gabungan western rock dengan nada pentatonis [kebanyakan Bali].
Nah, sebagai ibu yang -pengennya baik, aku memperkenalkan Guruh Gipsy dan Harry Roesli ke Sotja sejak dini. Biar nanti tumbuh jadi anak yang cinta Indonesia dan kece luar dalam.
Postingan ini meracau.
Lagi dengerin album Resesi-nya Chrisye [1983], salah satu album yang terbiasa didengar waktu kecil.
Kebebabusukan.
kebebasan adalah sebuah kebohongan terorganisir yang sempat dilakukan oleh para penjahat perang dari barisan Gunung Moria.
Kebebasan adalah takdir kejam yang memilih melakukan kejahatan di atas alam sadar yang tak bernyawa.
Kebebasan adalah kebusukan yang bisa diterima jiwa terbuka tanpa tanda tanya.
Akhirnya Bisa Berkata? Tidak Juga - Sebuah Coretan Kelam.
ketika kehampaan hanya bisa berdiam diri
menarik tabir untuk menutup hati
saat itu lah harusnya kami berjaga
dari segala kebusukan imaji
yang kadang membuang asa
butuh waktu untuk bisa kembali
ini tak semudah pelari, berlari
rasanya hampa
ini hampa, Tuhan
ke mana suara, saat dibutuhkan
menumpahkan mimpi dan bayangan kelam
yang menggerogoti ruang terdalam?
ke mana perginya keberanian,
untuk berkata dan meminta
tanpa berpikir hasil akhirnya?
ke mana?
terkadang mudah menarik luka baru dari luka yang sudah ada
kalau sudah begini,
sulit untuk berhenti.
toh,
kita akan mati.

Sedikit Iris... Tidak Ada Kamu Di Situ.
... and i'd give up forever to touch you...
In this world that everything made to be broken.
I don't want the world to see me,
Cause i don't think that they'd understand...
I just want you to know who i am.
