I think the content difficult too, we don't have context clues to these Indonesian poems. But there is an overall view of things floating and falling away that is catching.

Stunning poem by Zoey Yazzie (three "zs" in one name is a feat in itself) as to form and content. All seems to be ablaze and yet holding its place!
