MENONGKAH ARUS

Meniti zaman
pemodenan umat
aku menongkah arus
norma masyarakat

Yang disebut bertamadun itu
diertikan dengan
kesucian ternoda
pengorbanan insan demi pembangunan

Yang disebut kebebasan itu
diertikan dengan
penindasan secara implisit
oleh kerakusan kuasa besar

Yang disebut keamanan itu
diertikan dengan mulut yang bisu,
terdiam oleh kedahsyatan
autoriti kuku besi

Yang disebut halal itu haram
Yang disebut haram itu halal

Halusinasi hedonisme
trend-trend mengkhayalkan

menganggugugah dirian Iman
mencantas rasional pemikiran

TETAPI

aku
menongkah arus
bukan kerana ingin mundur

aku menongkah arus
kerana
mataku celik
sedangkan mereka semua masih tidur


macam puisi reformasi pulak, but the real reason behind this puisi was basically diilhamkan from the drama 'Kerusi' in Antologi Kerusi.

well, from now on, I have to be careful with what I post in my blog. period.

My Fair Lady

This is an old issue, I know. What has brought my attention to the topic of women rights was when I watched one of the episodes of Commander In Chief on Hallmark. In that series, the president of the United States was supposedly a woman. Interesting, and she plans to take the stand for women rights to the next level despite the controversies arousing her brave statement. The debate was whether or not it was relevant to debate on an old issue, in respect of the state of today's society. Women of today have a better status than they did way back in the days of history old. Women emancipation has been heatedly debated especially in the West throughout the time, and perhaps, the most memorable one was of the Suffragettes, fighting for the right of women to vote. Some places in Africa, in history, do not even recognize rape of women, as a crime, however, all of that has changed, thankfully. The question now is, are women actually 'emancipated' as we are all made to belief? well,...

Wish List

There's a lot of things on my wish list, actually, but here are some items on that list. I can foretell that at the least, I might be able to get them after SPM. The Boys Who Saved The World by Sam Mills, it had a good review, I might as well check it out. I bet it serves up a lot of analogies of political- religious issues, the zeitgeist of the so-called modern and sophisticated era that we live in today. Kak Ainul made a good review on it. The synopsis itself is very intriguing indeed. Surely must read more. The synopsis sounds juicy, as it provides a twist to the conventional Wizard of Oz story. My sinister inner child-cum-imp is hell bent on getting her hands on this one. And yeah, pray that I do well for my trials and the real SPM. 12 A1s, including that Cambridge English assessment. Oh, just so you know, I'm not doing any more tags in the future, mind you.

Revived

Hallo Leute, I haven't been on this blog for ages! More than a year perhaps? My last post was in 2016. I thought I'd have given up on blogging, but recently Twitter switched to 280 characters limit and I have been making full use of it, then I thought to myself, if I wanted to write verbosely, I could have just blogged about it right. I could use Facebook too, I guess, but recently, I'm not too into Facebook, and I think no one much really comes by my blog, so, I guess, my blog is the best place. 2016 was a roller coaster and 2017 is a continuation of that and there's only about a month left in 2017, and I'm probably in the most stressful stage of my Master's and it will continue soon up to early next year. Idk I've not been enjoying this journey so far. Everything I feared back in 2014 came back to haunt me. I had always been so sure of myself from a young age wanting to go into academia and when I'm actually here with it staring it in my face, I'...
