Repetition by Phil Kaye


Got a weird late night urge to post one of my favorite spoken poets reading one of my favorite poems. Sharing is caring, no?

Germany!

I was in Germany for 3 weeks for Summer Youthcamp, held by Goethe Institut! I finally landed in Frankfurt Airport. It was early in the morning when i landed. From Frankfurt Airport, we met Goethe-Team who directly brought us to a small lovely city called Schlitz. The whole town in a sight! This is taken from the tower in the center of Schlitz. On the last day, i talked to my self the thing that always pops in my mind when it's the time to say goodbye; it feels just like yesterday i got here then i gotta wake up today, packing my bag, and go to the airport, and leaving.  And by the wings of the airplane that ready to take off and the sun that slowly went down, i bid this beautiful country a goodbye. And i flew even further. "Die drei Wochen hier mit Euch waren wunderschön. Vielen Dank für die unvergessliche Zeit, kommt alle gut nach Hause, lasst uns in Kontakt bleiben un...

The Little Bunny

Margaret Wise Brown once wrote a beautiful story called The Runaway Bunny: Once there was a little bunny who wanted to run away. So he said to his mother, “I am running away!” “If you run away,” said his mother, “I will run after you. For you are my little bunny.” “If you run after me,” said the little bunny, “I will become a fish in a trout stream  and I will swim away from you.” “If you become a fish in a trout stream,” said his mother, “I will become a fisherman and I will fish for you.” “If you become a fisherman,” said the little bunny, “I will become a rock on the mountain high above you.” “If you become rock on the mountain high above me,” said his mother, “I will be a mountain climer, and I will climb to where you are.” “If you become a mountain climber,” said the little bunny, “I will be a crocus in a hidden garden.” “If you become a crocus in a hidden garden,” said his mother, “I will become a gardener and I will find you.” “If you bec...

Selebrasi Ulang Tahun ke-19; Jalan-Jalan Ke Baduy

Image
Ulang tahun berasa makin cepet tiap tahunnya. Rasanya baru banget kemarin ulang tahun ketiga dirayain tumpengan sama temen-temen di rumah Bandung, tiba-tiba dibilang “remaja” aja udah ga pantes lagi. I am a young-adult and officially legal!   Semoga bisa menjadi manusia yang lebih dewasa dalam kesehariannya (dewasa itu apa ya), dan semoga bisa lebih handal menyeimbangkan kemampuan melepas dan menerima banyak hal yang ditawarkan semesta. Kalau bisa tercapai, mungkin itu bakal lebih baik daripada mendapat perayaan atau kejutan selamat ulang tahun dari yang tak terduga.  Omong-omong soal perayaan, perayaan ulang tahun kali ini mungkin adalah salah satu yang terbaik, walaupun nggak ada kue, tumpeng, atau kado yang berlimpah. Bahkan ucapan selamat ulang tahun yang didapat, nggak sebanyak tahun-tahun sebelumnya. Tapi apa artinya ucapan, kue, tumpeng, dan kado yang berlimpah, tanpa ibu yang memperjuangkanku 19 tahun lalu. Kalau ada yang perlu diucapkan di hari ulang tahun...
