Reform (original poetry) [day #77]

Reform

20 years have passed
When students and people scream
Stressing ears
Chanting reforms
It was May 21, 1998
This great nation continues to lift itself
Towards immutable prosperity
But there seems to be a wrong way
Thugs thudded ahead of reforms
Students after the action back into the room
With euphoria of victory
It turns on the other hand the bandits blink

they
Shoulder to harvest success
Hand in hand colonize the reforms
To stay alive but suspended animation
20 years running like a dead person
Just change the regime only
Essentially the same people still suffer
Graduated college still no work
The Reformation is completely suspended animation
Wish I had a new leader in 2019

Reformasi

20 tahun berlalu
Saat mahasiswa dan rakyat menjerit
Memekakan telinga
Meneriakkan reformasi
Waktu itu 21 Mei 1998
Bangsa besar ini terus merangkat membenah diri
Menuju kesejahteraan abadi
Namun nampaknya ada yang salah jalan
Preman – preman berdasi lebih dulu merampok reformasi
Mahasiswa usai aksi kembali masuk ruang
Dengan penuh eforia kemenangan
Ternyata disisi lain bandit – bandit mengedip

mereka
Bahu membahu memanen keberhasilan
Bahu membahu menjajah reformasi
Agar tetap hidup tapi mati suri
20 tahun berjalan bagai orang mati
Hanya berganti rezim saja
Hakikatnya sama rakyat tetap menderita
Tamat kuliah tetap tidak ada kerja
Reformasi benar – benar mati suri
Doaku semoga ada pemimpin baru tahun 2019 nanti
