wheat-pasting out of spite

last year i wheat-pasted out of spite specifically at melawati due to my dissatisfaction towards the spoken word community and generally i despise rich people who are unaware
(if you think you're aware, jangan terasa okay, just jangan lupa rezeki is meant to be shared)

i did months of research for this poem
i started in bahasa, then in english
i was quite proud of myself and decided i should take it out of my comfort zone
but things don't always quite work out the way one expects it
whatever, i still have my immense capacity for a feat of quiet revenge

siapakah yang kau cari
seharusnya anda tenang di sini
kerna pelayaran abadi telah pun dilampaui
kemerlapan bintang
remukan bulan
dan tubuh purbamu hancur lebur dikutuk sang waktu
dan kau hanya bisa berdiri tunduk terpaku
siapakah yang kau cari
kalau bukan dirimu sendiri
setiap malam

who do you seek
you should be rightfully at peace here
you have transcended the eternal voyage
the dimming of stars
the shattering of moon
your ancient body now annihilated and condemned beyond time
you're left immobile, defeated
who do you seek
if not yourself
every night
