Shadows of The Antagonist


In the sprawling archipelago, under the tropical sky,

A leader rose, with intentions awry.

From the modest streets of a village, his journey began

But power soon twisted this ambitious man.


a name once whispered in trust,

Now draped in shadows, ambitions unjust.

With a carpenter’s hands, he built his facade,

Yet behind the veneer, lay intentions deeply flawed.


Promises of progress, whispered so sweet,

Masked the corruption in the corridors’ heat.

Infrastructure arose, but at what cost?

In the pursuit of power, many freedoms were lost.


He wielded reforms like a double-edged blade,

Carving out futures while old debts were paid.

In the guise of justice, control tightened its grip,

Through the lenses of power, democracy slip.


Beneath the construction, the growth, and the build,

Lay whispers of forests and rivers being killed.

For every road paved, a piece of truth buried,

The cries of the land, in shadows hurried.


The people once hopeful, now wary and torn,

Watched as the ideals of their leader were worn.

In the halls of power, where decisions are made,

The light of transparency began to fade.


Opposition stifled, dissent met with force,

As the path of governance took a darker course.

For unity spoken, division was sown,

In the name of progress, so much left unknown.


Nay! You’re once a beacon of hope,

Now tangled in the threads of power’s tightrope.

The antagonist’s mask, donned over time,

Turning aspirations into subtle crime.


In the annals of history, let truth be revealed,

The layers of leadership, slowly unsealed.

For in every hero, shadows may lie,

And in every story, the truth can belie.


May the lessons be learned, from the rise and the fall,

Of a leader whose path cast shadows on all.

For in the balance of power, both light and dark reign,

And the story of the feculent profile, forever remains.

Tell me about it
To be that hotshots?
No matter how I pave the dots
Others will hitch the knots
Thus accelerate the swot’s
Becomes doubts
Nonetheless, it's double edge swords
Sharp without words

Perempuan Api

Wahai Puan,
Izinkan hamba melipur matari
Nan kian deras meranggas sluruh Bumi
Agar lepas hasrat nya tak terbatas kini
Sebab Tuan tlah abai hibur laranya ini

Wahai Puan,
Tak taukah Tuan
Nurani tlah satu per satu gugurkan helainya dedaunan?
Kabut memekatkan murni pandangan 
Pada musim kemarau yang tiada ada sepenjuru mata angin padanya

Ditebas kejamnya bilah jarum jam
Tak ada tersisa bisa
Tinggal nelangsa nan purba
Airmata darah
