The corpse of a 49 years old Italian, Andrea S lay in the morgue of Sleman District Hospital, Yogyakarta, Indonesia, February 11th, 2013. Mr. S has been prosecuted for a bomb attack on Lion Air on October 14th, 2012 and has been to court for only one time before he died from dehydration. His case is now closed due to his death and remain unsolved.
the thing is: i can't sleep..so I decide to do a sightseeing in the night, and my decision is: the beach.
i'm starting the engine to the place where the old king met the southern sea queen and they interact in a metaphysic way. it wasn't a starry night, nor was it a full moon night. it was just a night, cloudy as it was. pairs of men and women were seen at some places maybe reenacting what the old king and the sea queen has done before. a larger groups of men and women in traditional clothes doing their meditation. it was something i have never seen: offerings in the night. it was quiet, no photographer but me, and no photos taken. i just enjoy the night watching this meditating group with some nomads who lived on the beach and gather food from the leftovers of the offerings. while sitting with them and watching them enjoy fruits and boiled chicken, I took a selfportrait. the clock ticked and it shows 3 am. my body was weary, tired. but my eyes felt nothing. not a slight of sleepiness. but I have to get a sleep. and I'm heading home. when two monkeys had a discussion, what would they talk about?
i think probably they talk about god, who has created men, those who has destroyed their home, their family, their life while claiming to be their heirs. they would probably even blame god for such a "perfect creature according to god's image". and they wonder whether god would be as cruel as human or not? well probably they just talk about how to buy a banana with a credit card... 2012 has gone and now come the new begining. I'm going to leave my old blog http://suryowibowo.blogspot.com as it is, since it records everything since 2007. And since weebly has no import feature from blogspot nor wordpress, and I don't want to trouble you moving from one tab/window to another tab/window while browsing my page, I decided to move my blog here to my new web based on weebly.
i'll change soon the domain into my own domain, but for now, i'll leave it to http://suryowibowo.weebly.com well, enjoy it and feel free to give me critics. |
